Add Paysafecards as payment method

TheLaughingDuck

Currently I'm able to pay with Paypal, CashU or Bitcoins but I'm missing the Paysafecard option which would simplify my payments a lot, is there any plan to add support for Paysafecards? And how about phone payments?

TheLaughingDuck Actually Paypal suits most peoples needs, CashU and Paysafecards are more for underaged people or those who are afraid of their money being traced but then again there's already Bitcoins which can be used by literally anyone.

Paysafecard integration is in progress, all we gotta do now is the implementation, apply security and logging and then run some tests so it should be available in a near future. Regarding phone payments we used a service called Zaypay a few years ago which no longer exist today. We're looking at alternative methods, one of them is Swish although it's only available in a few countries currently.

Actually, despite Paypals support for credit cards I would like to see a credit card payment option in where you can store your card on file and allow it to automatically charge a certain amount every month or when you're running low so you don't need to login just to pay every single time.

Urban Stored credit card info requires PCI compliance, transparency, privacy and security which means a lot of work, but it certainly is a goal to have that in a near future too.

I thought automated payments could be setup in Paypal and even some Bitcoin wallets tho but I might be wrong. At least that would have solved all the problems.

Adolf It's a bit complicated as far as I understand but definitely not impossible. If you pay with bank giro you can use auto giro for automatic transfers. I've also noticed email reminders during my beta subscription that comes around a week before my balance hits $0.

That means a week to process a manual payment. Today most phones also have calendar functions where you can add reminders and the dashboard even calculate the exact date and time for you when your balance will hit $0.

Automatic payment is a devils invention, too easy to forget then you just drain your account without knowing where your money went, it's better as it is now with reminders a week before deadline and manual payments via many different payment providers so we can choose whatever we'd prefer.

Alright thank you all for the replies 👍

Anything new on this front?

The_Moose

Still working on integration but we're getting closer

One internal check left then it should be available in production, if everything works as expected it should be available in a few days. 💰

Alright, please let me know once it's available 👍
