Sure, it's very attractive, suddenly you can accept all sorts of payments, but what you won't know, are the massive chargebacks -- 25 usd per chargeback.

This means, if your product costs 10 usd, you just lost 35 usd revenue.

That's payment from 3,5 customers, if 2 customers create chargebacks, that's 70 usd gone from your account.

And the best part? The payment provider will just "suspend" your account because "they invented a reason, without any warning upfront", and just steal your money.

Pretty fun?

Just do it the old fashion way:

Negotiate with your customers, and send an invoice, old fashion way, but more reliable for your company.
