|Suggest| Buy Donator with Paysafecard

[Henmar]

Hey,
i hope i`m right at this section.
I want to give you a suggest. Mmowned should bring another payment method for buying Donator - Paysafecard.
This is for guys who hasn't Paypal (me included ;D) and especially for people in Germany ;P.

Otherwise i must find a guy who pay this for me - this is very unsure :/.


I hope you enjoy it.


So far,

Paysafecard is being used by most microtransaction games now too. Great suggestion. In the meantime, if you find a way to send me the funds, I can donate for you, or you can probably talk to Ket about an alternate form of payment.

[Henmar]

I think a super Moderator is trusted enough.

Maybe a Admin/Mod/supermod/you (;P) can open an exchange Service
Paysafecard to Paypal for donator or verified id.

I think the Best Way is Paysafecard First per private Message.


I hope the Suggestion will be included.



Btw. sry for my Bad english. iPod + from Germany ;D.

your english is quite fine and easily understandable so no need to excuse yourself.. I am writing here to let you know that we have seen your suggestion and are thinking about it.
For now try to work out something with Parog.

thats same as paypal?

[Aldun]

I never used it myself but afaik Paysafecard is quite hard to turn into "real" cash, which is why it's not used much?

[Henmar]

Yea,
you're right, it's hard to transfer it to real cash, but for people without Paypal or under 18 and from Germany is it perfect .

And you can cash in the Paysafecard to online games :P.

I've been looking around for information on this a bit. It seems that it's not as cost efficient for businesses to use PaySafeCard than it is to use Paypal or CCs.

Long story short, say you had the choice to pay 15$ for 3 months with PaySafeCard or PayPal, if you paid with PayPal the business would get 14.50 ( Dummy number ) and if you paid with PaySafeCard they would get 10$ ( Also a dummy number ).

It comes down to how much the net profit from the sale is, there's no point implementing a payment system that will effectively lower our net sales. ( Assuming there's not 300,000 members waiting for us to introduce PaySafeCard )

There is a solution to this and I'm hoping we could introduce PaySafeCard anyway for the sake of people that don't have access to paypal. It's just as secure, it's not just as cost effective, but one thing that could be done is keeping the price ranges but DECREASING the amount of time the donator / ID Verified is applied to an account. 1 month for 10$ on paypal or 3 weeks for 10$ on PaySafeCard, ect.

This would give an incentive for members to use Paypal / CC instead of PaySafeCard as they would get a better deal without having any other options.

SMS Payments and PaySafeCards should be introduced this way.

Take a look at how Riot Games did it with League of Legends;
Payment Methods : League of Legends Player Support

I think this would be a great idea.

[Henmar]

Yea, many online Games did it very nice with Paysafecard for Players.

I saw how nice it is to pay with Paysafecard for German and so I think it would be a great idea to include it here.

we are looking into the possibility of adding these two .. thanks for all the research parog.
