What exactly do you think the alternative is?
If you want to accept payments online, you need to do so through a credit card processor. There is no "self-hosted" alternative.
- diazc 4y ago> What exactly do you think the alternative is? crypto? I was able to send the USDC stablecoin to a business accepting crypto with Coinbase Commerce just fine and transaction was very quick. I can see that even Stripe is getting involved in crypto as well.
- jeremyjh 4y agoBut what if they want customers to buy things?
- diazc 4y agoThey can buy things? Shopify, Woocommerce has integrations for this, this isn't really an issue.
- dashbarkhuss 4y agoThey are blocked by MATCH. They will be banned from all of those as well.
- diazc 4y agoWhat has MATCH got to do with crypto? Do you have any evidence for this claim?
- reaperducer 4y agoSo your solution for not using a third-party is to use a different third party?
- diazc 4y agoWhat is wrong with accepting USDC? Anyone can accept it, individuals, and even third parties.
- charlieyu1 4y agoPeople blame crypto for many things but at least crypto is not monopolized and you don't need the approval of a third party to use crypto to pay.
- pfsalter 4y agoGood luck trying to turn that USDC back into dollars without significant tax implications, and definitely good luck trying to get your customers to use USDC instead of a credit card
- diazc 4y ago> ...good luck trying to get your customers to use USDC instead of a credit card It's already happening and Stripe, Coinbase, Stellar, Shopify, Woocommerce, and Moneygram are already using USDC in the real world.
- livinglist 4y agoNo my point is not to rely on a single third party completely
- dan1234 4y agoIf they’ve been add to MATCH (card provider blocklist) they won’t be getting service from any other third parties now.
