  @azusai_ @Kimberstar_ I said this in a discord server, and granted this is easier for me/the artists I have commissioned before because it means I either put minimal or no info in the PayPal transaction notes I just write my username for the site I'm talking to the artist on- )1

  @am_dapsy There's User Registration & Membership. The issue is these plugins link to Stripe and PayPal, my problem is I'm a commission and game artist and both professors are generally hostile to art. I want one that has the ability to bill directly, use AmazonPay, or niche processors like CCBill or epoch.

  @JohnNumbers I also just suggest with very valuable items to find someone you can sell to privately or someone you can trust, eBay and PayPal always has the potential for issues for sellers if you sell to the wrong person

  @tackane Im pretty sure wise has its own problems too but i personally never had the headaches that paypal had me go through too so big same. I think generally, alternatives are less appealing if ppl are so used to the product,

  Hand over your paypal login. Hand over total control of your finances and watch helplessly as I take what I want 😈

  Payment processors are going after anything labeled as "art" or "commission", holding things up by like 3+ or more days. Kickstarter tried to crack down on legal NSFW art and revoked it, PayPal is doing it now but caught in the crossfire are literally any artists who label their invoices ANYTHING art-related. To get around this, you have to use "Request payment" and click "Friends & Family", and not goods and services. I'm not sure why this is happening, but I've heard on the rumor mill the usual suspects at OnlyFans and PHub have been pressuring payment processors to go after NSFW artists so they can get more people to join OF and PHub as creators, and in the crossfire, PayPal has gone ultra-mode and is icing anything art-related until they can research your portfolio/business to ensure it is up to par. In the case of fellow game creators, you must ensure your storefront content isn't too violent and doesn't have any suggestive themes, because these are being ham-fistedly categorized as "pornography" and this is what payment processors are looking at. This is a must for anyone who operates via Patreon or other content platforms, who are all bending the knee to the power of the payment processors.

  @AskPayPal Hey I'm facing an issue with adding My bank account: My bank account was disabled after failed micro deposit verification attempts. Now I only get “Unable to process your request right now” while linking my bank account. Please help reset/reactivate bank linking.

  Reason why I would advise putting that specifically in there is in case of charge backs and scammers- if you out nothing and they decided to charge you back, PayPal will look at your invoice and see that there was no good or service written down and you'll have a harder time getting your $ back!

  @ns1778 @realradec HBO doesn't take "foreign" card payments. Even with PayPal, we technically can't legally. I had to buy an account through a website and get the login. Well using a VPN but now I have both suits, so no complaints about it.

  @j3w7a @comms2point0 i actually did get someone in support chat, they escalated and supposedly are getting back to me. i don’t think i need blockchain forensics, it’s just the paypal stable coin. i need paypal to fix their withdrawal glitch…
