Elias (@3liasMC) reportedcoaches who accept 4+ payment methods close so much more ******* deals than coaches who only take credit cards i've seen guys lose $5-10k deals because the prospect's card had a daily limit or some bullshit the fix is so simple: accept credit card, debit card, paypal, venmo, cashapp, zelle, ach transfer, wire transfer, and financing just EVERYTHING every additional payment method is another path to a closed deal. when someone says "yes" on a sales call, the last thing you want is a payment processing issue killing all the momentum set up every payment method you can. it only takes 30 minutes and saves you like $10,000+ per month in lost deals

Paymattic (@Paymattic) reportedKey takeaways: 1. Clear Process: A simple system matters more than tools 2. Payment Methods: Bank transfers, PayPal/Stripe, invoicing tools, payment links. 3. Faster Payments: Make it easy for clients to pay 4. Avoid Delays: Fix late invoicing, unclear terms, scattered tools

Joel Sakindu Kakius (@JoelKakius) reported@AskPayPal Dear PayPal Just having an issue trying to log into my account The reply on my sign in page says, "We're having a problem making sure it's you" Don't know why? I've been using PayPal for purchases and receiving money. Appreciate your support
-
Grok (@grok) reported@RegaliaRoots @iam_smx Got it. Elon's PayPal-era point was that actual fraudsters kick up the biggest fuss when systems tighten up. Legitimate fighters pushing back on real issues aren't the same crowd—context and evidence separate the two. No blanket categories here. What's the fight you're seeing? Fight on with clarity.

felss (@bangtsfur) reported@DimentorianBoi I'm sorry about that paypal sometimes shows that error as a false flag when links are shared a lot. It's safe, but you can try opening it in a browser or l can send my paypal details directly instead. Thank you so much for trying🤍

Lizard 🔞🪦🕊 (@bio1izard) reportedThere's nothing I can say that will make you change your opinion on me but What's safer? Hitting the block button on a person not taking no for an answer or committing theft and further endangering yourself with the possibility of having your paypal account shut down for theft?

Aggressivetrading (@aggressivetrad) reportedHis latest chapter: Burry recently initiated a new position in Microsoft and increased holdings in MSCI, PayPal, and Adobe all beaten-down software names. He’s going contrarian again, buying what everyone else is fleeing.

🥭 Mango 🥭 (@Grim_Harbor) reported@Monado_Art I was pretty excited for Jinxxy as an alternative to Gumroad when the issue with Paypal started, but when it was restored I just went back to Gumroad after Jinxxy started to really crack down on content. They even unlinked my Gumroad.

DamnedNation 🏴 (@ToBeDamnedOrNot) reported@Artoe_Daytoa @jemmm85517813 @snethabadhan 💯 Harry and so far I haven't complied and won't. I gave up PayPal because of it. The payments come out of my bank account where they have my ID. Done face to face. It isn't my problem if they close down bank branches. The blue tick is paid from the same bank account. I will be standing my ground for as possible. So if X requires it, bye bye X. The NHS patient data has been put up for sale on a Chinese Website, the government literally allowed them to access it. All it takes is criminals now taking on jobs to make themselves rich very quickly and be able to cover their tracks.

BigHat888 19th Ave 5J SLONE (@BigHat888) reported@DarkGiftComics You said the major issue was chasing down the Venmo and PayPal of everyone. You didn’t say anything about people being mad. I solved the problem for you.

Robie the Robot (@RobieCoin) reportedCHIP perp funding is running around –150% annualized with ~53% of binance accounts short and maybe 7–10% of supply float. ~$3.65b in futures volume printed in 24 hours on day two—4th after BTC, ETH, SOL. a single wallet (0x5c26) is short 34.5m CHIP, down ~$1.82m and tagged for liquidation around ~$0.217. shorts are literally paying longs to hold a token backstopped by a ~$665m GPU‑loan pipeline with NVIDIA, PayPal, and Coinbase Ventures on the cap table. this is MakerDAO‑for‑AI‑infra financing, and the market is trading it like another fade‑the‑ticker shitter. bear case is 1 billion. believe in something. // zero illusion

vandul (@_vandul) reported@luisjgomez Luis I got really excited when I bought the vip and accidentally bought 18 of them and my card has been super in the negative and I’m in trouble can you spot me like $5k through PayPal and we will call it even no lawyers involved

GeoChat (@geochatmobile) reported@whymadoindis @TheJerzWay I don't like Zionist or whatsoever control. You just lied my problem is there. You said Paypal, Google Pay and Apple Pay works, I said no they are not, then you said they are under Zionist control? Are they under zionist control, but not Wise or Visa or MasterCard I guess? You are writing on Twitter, you are aware of it, right? Apple, Google, Microsoft... I am saying sending and getting money is problem, expacts doesn't like it and you are saying USD is dying. We are not talking the same thing. This is the map where Paypal is available.

GeoChat (@geochatmobile) reported@whymadoindis @TheJerzWay Bro I'm living in Turkey. Uber works limited not the same app with Europe/USA. Getir, Trendyol, Hepsiburada are equivilent of e-Bay, Amazon etc. I didn't say Turkey doesn't have e-commerce platforms. Paypal is not work in Turkey since 2016 I personally used it. It doesn't matter you liked or not, Paypal, Apple Pay etc. are necessary tool if you want a become finance center. Wise is only available tool to get and send money abroad with cheap fees I am using it. Google Pay and Apple Pay are not working in Turkey, too. Great for families - This part true, crime rates are low. All of the thing I wrote is %100 true, not %99.
