Paypal Alternatives?
8 years ago
So apparently paypal is shitting the bed right now and I'm curious if any of y'all know of any decent alternatives to it?
I know about Google Wallet, but I've also heard it's a problem for people outside of the US (can anyone weigh in on the specifics about that?)
I'm American, but I'd hate to find out that with Google Wallet I wouldn't be able to sell to non-Americans.
Are there other options...?
(incidentally if anyone knows if the recent paypal stuff is just hitting above a certain price? Like is it really gonna withhold $20 sales from me?)

It is world wide covering 20 counties and plans to add more!
Money is sent right to your bank or to a debit card.
If you make a account put that I refered you! My Referral Code: vora_vixen-5190
We will both get $5 after you finish your first commission using commiss.io
Due to the people running it understanding commissions you never have to worry about being scammed out of money!
They will look into it and side with who is right and not the scammer like paypal does sometimes.
A: A personal account is used like a business.
B: A business account is not used like a proper business.
Fifteen years with them with a business account and I've had reps on the phone be absolutely shocked that I have a pristine account after fifteen years. That and the fact that I've been with PayPal for fifteen years.
In any case, PayPal, sadly, is the currently-best-known, longest-lived. multinational one, for the most part. We've heard more horror stories about PayPal because it's the most-used. At the same time, taking "Stories per 1000 users", so to speak, PayPal has the least horrors if they are done properly. And worse is to see the ones that were all the rage five years ago and now have folded and vanished. There was even a furry payment service that for the life of me I can't recall the name of, and it was great until it wasn't.
Money is a big deal in the world, so knowing the rules and being responsible and non-suspicious and toeing the government's line is necessary. They want their share, and they want to make sure you're not being bad.
I'm just not in a position to risk it x_x Especially right now, if my money gets choked up right now then I won't have cash to go see my family for thanksgiving.

Seems to be a wee bit random but basically a new policy/algorithm has been hitting people who have been doing nothing new and withholding money for 21 days.
There have been offered solutions (although I'm not sure if there's 100% work or if they're really just guesses) but if they are right (I'm going to follow the advice just in case) then it's a case of digital artists/ect not putting those "goods and services" transfers as shipped/processed.
