#1 » Post by **Matsy** » 20 Apr 2016 13:23

Any way to enable paypal donations? I'm not giving my card details or my bank details to that Paymentwall thing.

Also alittle addon point, did pretty much all the surveys and 0 webpoints awarded earlier on.

Moving this to General Support. I personally cannot answer your question, you will have to await the administrational team to answer this.

also would like to ask, if mobile donations removed forever, or is there chance for it to return, in addition to Paypal system?

We had to change to Paymentwall because of Paypal screwing us over and over. Paypal is the last company I would ever consider giving my details again, they are safe with Paymentwall.

Also mobile donations were never removed from what I can tell. Paymentwall offers them in most countries along with the other options although fees are much higher with mobile.

Well they have a system of "enquiries" that can be used to claim any missing points. I have indeed heard the surveys don't give points half of the time but I left them there for those who still want to do more than voting while not being able to donate.

If paypal to paypal is out the window what about paypal directly to bank account?
I'm not very willing to give my details to that payment wall thing.
I emailed about the surveys dont expect anything back from it lol

As far as I am aware, Paypal is very limited and only gives the option to send money to another Paypal account, not directly to a bank account or other service. So it's not possible if they block all accounts we create.

I've had problems with payment wall blocking me as I'm an American with an American bank account attempting to send funds from another country (Japan, Qatar). They really just don't understand my situation at all when I communicate through tickets.

The best work around I've found is to purchase Burger King Gift Cards and have someone else input the donation for me. This is less than idea, but its my only real choice when it comes to donating to Truewow.

I had luck with ecoPayz.

Any chance of bitcoin donations? In addition to providing a more anonymous donation method for those already invested in BTC, there are also plenty of services that will allow you to buy BTC with paypal, giving a workaround for those who don't trust others with their CC info - albeit at less than ideal conversion rates.

Bitcoin can be made available if there is enough demand for it (so far I have barely seen any interest, most people want to use their credit card). I also managed to get an old Skrill account verified if anyone is into that, not that I trust them more than Paypal.

Where I live you can get prepaid Paysafe Cards for cash at pretty much every gas station.
You get a receipt with a 16 digit code that you can then just enter online.

Didn't donate, but I did see the option (maybe it's only viable in a few countries?).
