Paypal

I'm sure you've heard the news already, but Patreon is floating Paypal as an option, even for ADULT work on this website.

*** update. 

It seems you can freely switch to Paypal at-will, whenever you feel like, if you feel like it.

If you have any real stories to share on this, I am *definitely* interested in reading those articles if it concerns Patreon and Paypal

I consider paypal to be a criminal enterprise. They stolen thousands of dollars from me and shut down my ability to run my business as an artist for almost two years. Plenty of other people have had similar experiences. I'd rather burn my money than let paypal have a cut of it.

I can certainly relate, given their insane enforcement has consistently kept me wary of their open ended policy. I'm not apologizing for them by any means, but I'm sorry you had to go through that. :\

Dayummmm, does that mean paypal has realized they *aren't* the arbiters of all that's "moral" anymore? About fucking time.

I'm unsure if that's their real reason, but I'm not familiar with the politics of the people that run paypal. I *am* familiar with porno as a high-risk industry though when it comes to CC chargebacks and fraud tho.

Well personally to me it makes no difference since I pay through card anyhow but what this likely would enable is new patrons whose only option is using paypal to make the payments.

Yah, this is interesting for a lot of reasons, especially since Paypal's been so strictly against Adult work of any kind.

***Also, I'm not sure if Paypal is already allowed regardless, I guess I should look into that
