I am starting an ecommerce store, but with the amount of business owners I see saying “x amount of people claim they didn’t get a package every week” is just insane to me.

Is there any payment platforms that don’t accept any of that BS, and customers can just normally pay with there credit or debit cards perhaps?

Is there any other issues I may run into with this?

    there isn’t. stripe, PayPal, banks are all the same.They side with scammers, hold your money, ban you.

    The only payment processor is Bitcoin. It completely cuts out the third party and the money goes directly to you but unfortunately the average person still doesn’t know how to use it.

    implement stripe and Bitcoin and try to get your customers to use Bitcoin for now

      Bitcoin is a payment processor? I thought it was only a cryptocurrency.

      Don’t you need to use other processors to accept payment in Bitcoin?

      At the very least, wallets.

      Don’t they also take cuts?

      If not the wallets or processors, Bitcoin has a transaction fee built in as part of their network fee.

        Yes Bitcoin is it’s own payment processor. The app I use, the Bitcoin goes directly into my app. It’s not a third party wallet. Therefore there is no cut for anyone.

        You can also use the Bitcoin payment processor called btcpay server which is it’s own PayPal type system run by yourself. Therefore again no cuts.

        Yes there is wallets out there that take cuts but I don’t use them. I take control of my own money.

        There is tons of options out there. I find small business people are way behind in understanding Bitcoin and accepting Bitcoin.

        They don’t seem to understand money well but and most are not even breaking even. All in a lot of debt. Probably why most businesses fail.
