If you can't process the three main credit cards, you can't do any meaningful business online. Bitcoin isn't and will never be a real replacement.
Yet that will forever be a problem as long as it is allowed to be one. I'm by no means all in on crypto, I barely have any of it. Just at some point you have to stand up and try something else otherwise it's really a waste of effort to even notice.
I assume it's all porn or something that was removed, spin it off, go open getchuwankon.com and find other ways to collect money.
You can stand up and try something, I'm trying to run a business. :)
But yes creating a new storefront would be the only way to get around the CC rules. They probably do not think that's worth the effort. Their other goods are a many times larger market.
Yeah, I don't know anything about Gotchu at all, I looked it up and got an anime site in Japanese.
I think my point is, these things keep coming up and I guess I'm just supposed to know about it and be angry or something? Because the way I see it if that's the case 10 years from now we will continue to see the same thing and I will have spent 3652 days with little bits of anger for nothing. I do what I can where I can even though it's probably of little consequence. I can't really do much here, as I never purchased anime porn or whatever anyway.
yup, would argue that people need to take a page from dlsite and sell "points" on a clean-ish site that can be redeemed for product on the other site as well... would be a good opertunity to include crypto payments not tied to a know your customer exchange and offer monero.... oh and all purchases final too. i think that would be enough myself.... seriously this mess is setting up space of someone to make a site thats a huge middle man that does this service.
Three? Which of Amex and Discover are you leaving off? And I'm always curious why everywhere takes Visa and Mastercard, but a lot of places don't take Amex or Discover.
I wasn't counting Amex, I think places don't take them because they have higher processing fees.
It can be for individuals when the circumstances are extreme, but generally not as the primary route for any kind of operating business.
