wanting this as well. I would pay for Nebula in a heartbeat but they only accept credit card which is not usual in the civilized world
I’m sorry, are you expecting to be able to mail them cash or something? And please don’t say crypto…
I never said that, just disputing the claim that credit cards are “not usual in the civilized world”. CC is absolute the norm for mass-market b2c services, and to claim otherwise is pure ignorance
In Europe I would say debit cards are way more common than credit cards. It's very rare to see someone paying with a credit card.
Oh sure, debit vs credit is largely a non-distinction here since debit cards are generally on the same network: Visa or less commonly MasterCard. So unless there are other business-related reasons to deny debit cards (currency conversion or cross-border regulations maybe?), they should be handled by the same processor as a credit card and usually for a much lower transaction fee too!
