Paypal Alternatives.
3 years ago
General
Are there any?
I can't use Wise, or Square. I can't use venmo or Cashapp.
I just can't find a good alternative for commissions. I just need something that:
- I can legally use as a non US resident (or european)
- Let's me send invoices to people's emails without having a business account.
I hate the monopoly paypal has on everything. I don't want to inconvenience my commissioners but I have no idea if there are any other services that are as convenient...
Long story short my life has been taking a turn for the worse nonstop. For a while I was finally able to support myself with my commissions a little more comfortably, but my paypal got hacked and now I'm banned permanently thanks to that. (already took all the measures I can so it doesn't happen again, please no advice on that, I'm upset enough)
I am in constant despair and paranoic as fuck since then. I need to get my bearings but the whole paypal thing has destroyed my spirit. I'm at the end of my rope and barely keeping it together.
I can't afford an apartment, I live in a dorm. I can't afford a reliable internet connection, therapy, or meds. I'm just managing somehow, and I will continue at it. But I feel insane, miserable. There's really no end to the shit life throws at us. I'm scared but, sort of living with it.
I just need some way to be able to charge for commissions again.

Boosty? Or Paysend! I was a sender in both cases but it was pretty uninvolved on the recipient’s end

OP
Thank you!! This is exactly the feedback I was hoping for! I'll look into those two now.
