PayPal isn't worth it*

Paypal is shit but what other real alternatives are there? BTC's price could go down anytime. I don't see any other alternatives for quick and safe transactions. I recently got chargebacked $700 and I can't do anything about it since it's thru a bank.

I'd have to agree. PayPal always do their best to sneak in fees. Even with their COVID-19 strategy i'm still somehow coping fees from my online store. PayPal have no loyalty lmao. Better off avoiding it if possible, i know i wouldn't be using it if i read into it more.

Make a BBB complaint against PayPal if your account is limited, you'll get farther than calling support

Many business rely on paypal as it is regarded as safe for customers. If i was buying an online product with paypal i know its backed by paypal. It really depends on the type of business your in.

Some places in the US you can get a card at 13, everyone on this forum that lives in said certain places like New Jersey are eligible to do it

So what's the point of this post

To encourage people to move away from PayPal if they don't strictly need it.

Dai. Dai is a stable cryptocurrency which focuses to stabilize at a 1:1 rate. It's like Bitcoin in the cryptocurrency factor of things, but incredibly less volatile since it aims to be stable at $1 (which it has been for a very long time).

I honestly believe that we should be the change we want to see in the world. If we think PayPal is shit, we should use Dai extensively, thus dropping the usage of PayPal.

Why not use Tether USD?

We need to make CashApp more known.

Doesn't work outside the US and UK. It wouldn't work for a lot of transactions.

Hence why we need to make CashApp more known.

It will still be several years, at best, until it has expanded enough to be usable by everyone. They would also have to consider competition. For example, we have an app called Swish in Sweden that everyone uses. If you have a phone and are above 18 (or below, for a lot of people), you have that app. It is run by banks and is promoted by them. It would be very difficult to get a foot in the payment market here.

The reason PayPal is so big is because it’s trusted by so many merchants online and because they have so many guidelines and restrictions imposed on their users which guarantee legit users. And because of this the two ideals you are looking for in a payment solution are simply mutually exclusive because PayPal will always be bigger than Bitcoin or cash app as a result of their restrictions

I am late but likely, I am 18 and have linked my bank account and credit card and even " a second bank account", and have as far no problems. Even tho I provided information optionally to PayPal that I am really 18 and random freelancer. So I actually never wonder if people say PayPal is shit, they themselves don't follow ToS from PayPal and create at 13 age a PayPal account.

One thing I know and from my experiences, I never get limited because I linked my bank account and start transferring big amounts so I can actually receive big amounts from people and PayPal never asks me how do you get this money.
And I use my real Name and never fake my addresses or my phone Number.

I prefer people who are under 18, you can use PayPal and break their own ToS, but never claim that PayPal is shit when they take action on your transactions:
