Your Paypal account seems old enough. Just have your documents ready at all times and you'll be fine.
CC payment providers have eligibility requirements and the number one reason which makes me not eligible is that my country isn't supported. Major CC payment providers, if not all, almost always support US-based businesses. This is the reason I am looking at registering a US LLC to be eligible with the major ones like Stripe, Amazon Payments, Braintree, etc. I'm particularly looking to get accepted by Braintree because of their native integration with PayPal and Venmo but from reviews I've read, the acceptance rate for small merchants is low and seems like they're not into dropshippers too. Another reason for registering an LLC is I also want a US bank with USD debit card so I can make online purchases without having to pay expensive conversions from my home currency.
I'm not gonna mess with these people
What do you mean ? Just wondering since you quit dropshipping, did you find another way to make money online.
How do you go around the fact that Stripe doesn't allow Dropshipping, and that they require your online store to be a niche and not a general store.
Before that I had success on print on demand stuff. I went to dropshipping looking for a new stream but that's what happened.
Revolut is giving you all required details here. All legal.
I guess this will be for uk residents only. I dont live in uk and im guessing it will be quite difficult for someone not from uk to get a revoult account.
No. You can use Revolut from any supported country, and you can open different currency accounts. In UK case - you can open up GBP account with UK "Account number" as well as UK "Sort code" which you can use with Shopify Payments. Research needs to be done since I have done with a year later, but don't think that much has changed.
I hear it's very problematic, and it doesn't redirect customers directly to checkout like Stripe or Shopify Payment. Which will drop the CC conversions for sure. I guess 2checkout is only the last solution if you can't workout Stripe or Shopify Payment. In the end, it's only a way to give your customers more options to pay you and not rely solely on Paypal ( which is a bad bad mistake).
By the way, Revolut will ask you for proof of address (Gaz, electricity bill etc..), how did/will you go about that with the UK postbox service ?
Yea just make sure to put in the actual working tracking number in the transactions as soon as possible and you should be okay. As always, make sure to have invoices from your supplier, bank statement, Photo ID etc.. have them ready at all times. You'll be fine.
Stripe is to accept CC(credit card) Payments. You should always give your customers more options to pay you with.
