I think wise was better than paypal.

by
I've used several fintech platforms for commissions,
but I think PayPal is getting more and more expensive.  And as an alternative, I found wise.
( Darkkita,  thanks so much for the recommendation.)

 While Wise's advantages aren't that many but it is normal.
But PayPal's current shortcomings are quite clear. They take excessive fees. They charge a fee for currency conversions and also for commission payments. For example, if someone sends me $85, I receive $80 and lose $5 in fees. Furthermore, I have to pay another 5% fee to transfer money to my account again, so it seems like a lot of money is lost in the process.
 
So many people use PayPal and I use PayPal a lot too, but this is what makes it difficult for me.

PayPal seems to have been getting worse and worse overall. Them trying to crack down on transfers related to NSFW content was the final straw for me, personally. I don't know what they thought gave them the right to mediate every transaction to that degree, but it's the reason I stopped using their service months ago.

Not to mention PayPal is trying to make it illegal to buy/pay for adult content

Don't you need the recipients full RL name to send money to over Wise?

Huh? On paypal you send money to an email, not to a name.

You could do a monero option for privacy-conscious users, or you can add the fees included in your pricing model (generally speaking)

Yeah, so you just price your commissions 10% higher to account for that. If wise is cheaper for you, then you can add different percent charges on your commissions in advance. As long as the buyer knows it BEFORE they commission you then you are not being scummy if, say, you charge them an extra 5 dollars for using paypal over wise ^^

Using paypal is supporting censorship of the internet, enforcement of TERF and WASP values in payment processors, and the illegalizing of VPNs, adblockers, and proxies.

Using Paypal is actually immoral and supports the destruction of the free internet.

You could also try Binance—crypto transfers usually only cost a few cents. I just don’t like recommending it too much because most people tend to stick with whatever’s most convenient for them. Still, maybe one day you’ll want to give crypto a shot.

Yeah Ive been getting annoyed with PayPal lately too. It’s the only option that works easily for me and while I have tried a few alternatives, my bank seems to dislike them and kept denying any transfers or payments I’d try to send people especially if it was internationally.

Its for the better you do, PayPal fucked me over in June and have been holding my money hostage for months now, honestly hoping people start using these alternatives in spite of such a shitty company

On the currency conversion matter, paypal also has abhorrent rates that tend to be 7-9% worse than market rate

PayPal is also hostile to furry artists, that's another thing to consider with it.
