AT&T Help (@ATTHelp) reported@TellonTue Hi there, we apologize that you’re running into this issue! AT&T Prepaid customers can also make payments through the Vesta Payment Center using Visa, Mastercard, Discover, AmEx, checking accounts, PayPal, and more. If you’re trying to pay by phone (IVR), note that postpaid-to-prepaid customers can’t complete payments through IVR, and those with an alphanumeric passcode get transferred instead. Please reach out to us in DM, we’ll help figure out what’s causing the issue and get it fixed for you. -ValentinaF

Eliot (@CDTEliot) reportedcompany names are actually very predictive of future failure or success peter thiel has a surprisingly strong take on this: « paypal was a very friendly name, it was the friend that helps you pay. napster was a bad name, you nap some music, you nap a kid. that sounds like a bad thing to be doing, and it's no wonder the government then comes in and shuts the company down within a few years. » « facebook sounds like learning about real people, so it dominated myspace which sounded like fake personas. » « airbnb sounds like an innocent bed & breakfast, while uber sounds "like a bad name from germany sometime in the 1930s. » naming feels like one of those decisions that gets surprisingly little attention given how long it sticks around

My family and I never experienced this before, now we will have to wait nearly 30 days for our money back due to the Authorisation Pending.

John Wu (@topjohnwu) reported@dbrand @robot I can't seem to be able to purchase your products with PayPal. Website broken, or payment backend changed?

No Gimmicks (@NoGmicks) reportedEvery now and then I forget just how terrible an investor I am. Two of my greatest hits: 1. Let’s open a COVID-testing booths at the airport. $XSPA 2. Let’s try to put PayPal out of business. $HMBL 3. Still not even sure what $OPTI did. My track record speaks volumes.

MUSSE (@Musse1969) reportedAnd if people are donation from an Apple device, they want money too, so the final revenue can come down to 50% and thats why he has cashapp and paypal too.
-
Arez (@MageArez) reported@JermainePercins @stripe @PayPal The cause of this was when I was doing about $500,000 revenue monthly I ran into horrible supply manufacture issues that caused my dispute rate to spike to 5%+ for an extended time.

Funnelish (@funnelish) reportedUpsells for PayPal users don't fail because of the offer. They fail on the extra verification step. The moment there's an extra step, there’s an extra step: → login → 2FA → re-approval You're forcing a new decision, and CVR drops. At 10,000 PayPal orders, even a 2-point lift on a $30 upsell adds up fast. One less step means less time for intent to decay. We introduced PayPal V3 to remove redirects for vault-eligible merchants. Customers accept the post-purchase offer in one click. The upsell checkout for buyers feels like a single flow, not a fragmented process.
