Just a heads up - for the love of everything that's holy DO NOT USE PayPal anymore ⬅️⬅️⬅️

I’ve been banned by both 2co and stripe for trying to accept forum member profile upgrade payments on a forum community (8+ years ago). They got upset because of the ability to purchase the membership as a gift (which I honestly didn’t know it was there), banned my account without even talking to me about it, then wouldn’t let me turn off the feature and restore the account (stripe refused to talk to me about it until I kept emailing). Can’t recommend either of them, they are too finicky and temperamental.
That stripe account, was it registered under a business or individual?

Business. I’ve never had any individual accounts as I don’t believe operating as a sole proprietor is a wise business decision.
 
That’s why I don’t want to sell anything online. I used to droship stuff back in 2016 then they locked my account. All earnings were gone.
Still searching for a good payment processor.
 
Wise is as awful when it comes to user experience, their support is terrible, don’t be surprised that you are going to be connected to a call with Indian VA support if you have issues.

I think I have like about 3-4 attempts to create a wise account unsuccessfully, so usually, I would just tell customers to send the money using their wise and I provide them the ach deposit details, but I would not be able to have my own wise account.
 
I stopped using Paypal after a decade-long transaction with zero fraudulent claims. They just simply limit my account despite having a very good standing so I cannot receive more than what I used to receive funds on a monthly basis. What an arse!

don't say no to huge money because of some minor problems which can be overcome
 
Merchants still use PayPal in 2022? These guys are fraudsters.

You deserve BETTER!
 
Lol. When did everyone start getting so offended by everything? :suspicious:
when we graduated from middle-school. It's easy to not see this as a problem if you are not a member of a systematically oppressed group.


But I think we should get back to Black Hat topics, in general.

@crystalwiz -> unfortunately some client insisted because he lives in a country that has difficult financial/banking connections and I gave in. One last time.
 
You just can't sleep well if you are dependent on paypal, They are crazy with the taxes and bans. Avoid at all costs!

Now I can sleep better when I have alternates which are much better than paypal in all cases!
