How do sites like Pornhub get paid then? Why can't OnlyFans switch to whatever provider they use?
- tshaddox 5y agoDon't pornography companies typically use payment processors that are considered pretty shady? Or, these days I'd imagine most of them accept cryptocurrency.
- gowld 5y agoThey are "shady" only by circular reasoning, because they handle porn.
- tylerhou 5y agoObjectively, they also charge much higher fees because of the high chargeback rates associated with porn. They also tend to process other unsavory transactions, which also have higher chargeback rates; hence they are "shady."
- lol768 5y ago> How do sites like Pornhub get paid then? At the moment I'm pretty sure they don't. At least, not via card-based payment systems.

- dvdkon 5y ago> "This is good for adoption! Next up, Onlyfans." Sadly it doesn't seem to be working out as the crypto-enthusiast author might have wanted.

- LegitShady 5y agoliterally the link in the post above what you replied to.
- istingray 5y agoahhhh, I had misunderstood what they were referencing. I had assumed it meant things weren't working out for PH. When the quote meant to refer to how things weren't working out for OF.
- zzleeper 5y agoDidn't they had the same problem a few months ago or so?
