  @PayPal account locked up, we are american company been doing business with paypal for 24 years, we call every day, we submitted all requested documents to prove that we are a real company, "paypal help" is no help, they are withholding 100K+ , we are going to have trouble making payroll, treating a US small business in business since 1979 like some sort of scammer. this is beyond ludicrous, i'm convinced now someone at paypal is trying to steal our hard earned money, PP-L-836499913052

  Found a bug in my store today. A "30% off your first year" code was taking 30% off every year, forever. Claude found 2 other codes had the same problem. Gave Claude read access to my WP install over SSH plus temporary Stripe and PayPal keys. It found all affected subscriptions across both processors, cross-checked what the gateways were actually billing against what my database thought, and fixed each one. $1,782/year recovered. About 30 minutes once I knew something was wrong. Doing that by hand across two payment processors would have eaten my week.

  @Washen_D A business PayPal is how I see a lot of people do it. If you're willing to go through the trouble of getting an artist code, you can try getting a VGen code as well to manage requests better.

  Kaz @nejatian on the biggest lesson he learned from Shopify CEO @tobi Lütke: There's only 3 rules you learn in business school: 1. Money is good 2. More money is better 3. Money now is better than money later "What ends up happening is: people very frequently sell future growth at a massive discount for today's stock price." "The result of that is PayPal. Over and over that company made the wrong decisions because they cared more about today than 10 years from now." "And guess what—it is now 10 years from now and the company’s in deep trouble." "Tobi had this wonderful mentality of applying essentially a zero discount rate to future growth." "He was like, 'Growth tomorrow or growth today, I’m indifferent. I will never sacrifice growth tomorrow for growth today.'" "What ends up happening is, because human beings always misunderstand compounding, you end up getting way higher growth later on." "It’s a very hard thing to do in practice because you have to look at a chart and say, 'Nah, I’ll take some of it later.' That’s very hard." "There are 2 SaaS companies that stand differently from the rest: Palantir and Shopify." "I think it’s partially because they do things that are just so different than every other company."

  If someone hacks your Gmail, they don't need your passwords. They can reset everything. Bank. Instagram. Apple ID. Crypto. PayPal. Password manager. Your Gmail isn't email. It's the master key to your entire life. Here's how to lock it down in 10 minutes: 🧵

  @SpanishEchidna @RockitGamesNOW So this is a technical issue with paying via PayPal on Rock It's Shopify site? If so, have you tried a different payment method?

  @DwinTheStoic I have always known Uber to be a terrible seevice, terrible consumer app, terrible company. They are no different from likes of PayPal. Uber is terrible normally and I say this as someone who have patronised them in major countries.
