yeah, you have ''free of choice'', there are tons of ''competitors'' ... all bullshit
once you are banned from paypal and stripe, you are cooked...the ''alternatives'' love to refuse new merchants for any kind of stupid reason

stripe: they have the power to literally refund all your customers, even if they already received the product. Tons of reports on internet about people who lost thousands of dollars with compulsive refunds or they simply steal your money without giving to you or refunding customers

paypal: is it really necessary to explain something? this shit has worst reviews ever, completely scam, their profit is based on randomly locking people's money

Even so, they completely monopolized the market, there are no real options, maybe if you are american there are some options (very sensitive ones, easy to get banned as well). Otherwise, sorry, we don't want people from your country here, get lost

Stripe & PayPal = sign up and start selling
Alternatives = send a dna exam of your grandparents + a sample of your dog's shit + wait one week for our compliance team to review = ah, you got rejected, sorry, selling garden books or water bottles is considered high risk according to our policies, sorry for wasting your time

impressive
competition is an ilusion when you have 2 giants monopolizing the market and 9999 useless alternatives, there is a reason that explains that nobody is using those alternatives, most of them are simply trash

But their payment process is really convenient
yes, until they scam you and start refunding all your customers or locking your money for a whole semester

everybody talks about PayPal, but I think they are better than Stripe...at least PayPal does not ''refund'' all your customers

Stripe simply steals the money based on their scammy ToS, PayPal at least borrow the money for six months and give it back to you
 
True, stripe is even worse than paypal.

Its used to be different tho, but nowadays its terrible.
Yeah, avoid Stripe like the plague
PayPal is a temporary scammer, they force you to wait 180 days to get your money, but they give it back

Stripe is a permanent scammer, they literally rob your money...all you have it's a digital number appearing on your screen, you can't withdraw it (never, not now, not in 180 days, not in 10 years, never), they say they will proceed with refunds for some customers, the others not receive anything, you also not receive the money, so where is the money? it's on their deep pockets filled with robbed money

Sad but the true reality! it would require some hella good legal stuff to get it out of their hands.
 
Just use crypto,
What's wrong of losing 90% of your clients, you just need x10 more traffic :D
Yes, I think that's the reality in the end
We were born too early, in the future those companies like Stripe won't exist anymore, just directly transfer between wallets without needing to pay for fees or dealing with scammy middlemen and trashy payment processors

For now, we need to deal with less popular niches where crypto is already relevant...for general ecommerce websites, nothing to do
