UPDATE: 10.11.21 Paypal situation
Added 2021-11-10 08:12:45 +0000 UTCHi everyone!
I would like to give you a little bit of an update
Some of you might see me ranting about PayPal on my socials but let me give you some more context here
I have been using PayPal as my main international transaction medium for a long time. All of the income I've every received from you guys are via PayPal.
On the 6th of November. PayPal announced the launch of PayPal Thailand. Which is basically a localized Paypal that follows a rather backward rules of my country
By February 2022, all non-registered business and personal accounts will NOT be able to issue invoice or keep money. Devastating all freelancers nationwide as PayPal will no longer be a way for them to gain income
What I'd do right now is I'll shift to other platforms like Payoneer, Wise, Stripes for my business. Those might be a little unusual from some of you but it's all I can do for now.
For all you lovely commissioners I hope the change in the platform doesn't make payment too inconvenient
And I'd like to thank you everyone so much your amazing support!

YES! Thank you for reaching out Michael! I cancelled my Paypal forever now. And yes I still get money from Patreon, I shift the payouts to Payoneer :) Everything is fine for me at the moment. My business model changes a little tho, everything has to be directly transferred from now. Trying to get used to it hehe

2022-01-04 00:42:13 +0000 UTCI'm seeing this much too late. Question: Do you still get Patreon subscriptions normally? I set Patreon up with Paypal and I'm wondering whether you still get that. Or were you able to change the payout to you to something else?
