So how do legitimate porn sites collect money? It's a multi-billion industry, I'm sure they've solved this problem somehow.

- kuschku 9y agoAccording to Wikipedia, many of them accept bitcoins, wire transfers, etc. Obviously, that is a significant hurdle that isn't required for other businesses. A similar issue existed a few years back with a major German retailer, which sold cuban cigars — and MasterCard, VISA and PayPal closed their accounts over it, but luckily in Germany wire transfers, direct debit and Europay cards are common enough that they had an alternative.
- icebraining 9y agoThis is a case where a little first-hand investigation might prove more fruitful :) For example, Ersties.com, a site made by a German woman and owned by a Swiss company, accepts Paypal and Credit Cards. Abbywinters, which I believe is currently Dutch, also accepts credit cards, as does GirlsOutWest. Granted, this is not a big sample, just three whose content I happen to like, but it shows that it's hardly an impossibility.
