Fanbox dropped Paypal.
Fantia also dropped Paypal. You need to use 3rd party website with inflated price to buy their own currency
Skeb dropped Paypal
Digiket ???
Getchu is Japan Only
DMM is also Japan Only
Pink Pineapple just dropped credit card support a while ago.

Also, paypal and amex are private companies. forcing them to do business with entities they don't want to is against freedom of association. as such, those adult companies either have to make their own purchasing platforms or credit cards or partner with those payment facilities that will be okay with adult sites.

Any good theories as to why this happens?
I've heard
>ESG
Visa and Mastercard are big boys, they can tell Larry Fink to go fuck himself.
>Too many chargebacks
So create a special category for porno with higher merchant fees, or a special transaction type that isn't eligible for chargebacks, or both. If cost is the problem then price fixes it.
>Lobbying by prudes
Might move the needle on the margin, but IMO this is barely worth mentioning, big business cares about $$$ and no other group of whiners is forcing the big players to change their practices.
>reputational risk
This is twofold, being associated with skeezy shit earning them bad PR, and legal trouble for being involved in human trafficking and CP. Probably the former is a nothingburger, soccer moms don't care that their points card is also used by drug dealers. The latter might be the ticket, if governments get pissed they can levy fines and regulations that make the whole adult industry a net-loss at anything close to the price people are willing to pay.

But this still feels like its not enough, VISA and MCD aren't in the business of turning away business. Did I miss anything?

>>7931627
They havent filter their loliworks better. For example https://www.dlsite.com/maniax/work/=/product_id/RJ01155231.html This was on top sales for weeks before the ban. Some oldfags at mastercard will obviously mistook this as Pizza.
>>
>>7931627
>So create a special category for porno with higher merchant fees
So then that gets charged to the customer, so people would end up not buying the product.

Banks wouldn't be thrilled about partnering with a payment processor known for openly supporting porn, hence why porn sites or the few creator sites left that allow creative freedom haven't banded together. That being said, I still can't grasp why 2D porn gets the hammer on the internet yet all these ugly bitches from Only Fans or chaturbate can make cash unperturbed. I guess one side is just legally stronger than the other? I honestly don't know.

>I still can't grasp why 2D porn gets the hammer
Weaker lobby and a stronger prevalence of niche fetishes.
Things like bestiality, loli, rape or snuff are crimes when done in real, and frankly, most people who enjoy that stuff don't even want to see it IRL, because someone suffered (well, maybe excepting the bestiality crowd).
Basically all 3d porn is more or less vanilla by necessity and morals (even pretend rape and so on), but fictional stuff can get as sick as imagination allows.
Of course it's screwed up, not only does consuming content NOT lead to the real thing, fictional material is as safe as it can get. No shady backroom things or any amount of coercion, like it occassionally happens with 3d porn.
And even then it's basically a non-issue these days, with most porn being amateur and more transparent.
It's frankly dumb.
But rich people have always been like this.

If only there was a payment processor that could use cryptocurrency as an intermediary.

Basically, a user makes a purchase, but instead of going to the site directly, the money is used to purchase the equivalent amount in cryptocurrency. Said cryptocurrency is then deposited in a cryptowallet set up for the individual content creator on the site, who can then convert it back into cash.

Fakku/Irodori, OnlyFans and Chaturbate got close connections to Visa and Mastercard. They're American companies. They don't want competition by non-American companies.

Shouldn't be too difficult for you to figure out the rest.

>>
>>7930581
Sorry I'm late to the earlier talks and discussions. But let me get this straight, or tell me if I got all of this correct:

Companies, publishers, developers, IP holders and Estates that hold the rights of certain IPs or media. Can basically sumbong (tattletale or report in Filipino, sorry I wanted to bring that up) to the mods or admins of Patreon, Gumroad and Skeb AND the payment processors of "problematic" R34 artists making porn of their IPs and properties as potential sexual crimes bullshit? I do remember the root cause of the clampdown by the payment processor originated 2 or 3 years ago when OnlyFans and Pornhub hosted Cheese Pizza and actual videos of sexual violence and rapes, which then caused PayPal, Mastercard and Visa (the payment processors) to bail out of OnlyFans and or Pornhub for not wanting to be associated with actual sex crimes. To which then OnlyFans and Pornhub had to readjust their policies and try being more "safe for work" to appease the payment processors and also not get legally assfucked by Federal Law.

This then caused Patreon, Skeb, Pixiv, Gumroad and all the other art sites to also revaluate their policies and even tone down how much NSFW and porn they will allow in fear of also having the payment processors bail out on them. So now that turmoil can be utilized by the corpos, publishers and devs and all the IP holders and Estates who are not pleased with the countless amounts of porn of their property and media they own, is that what has been happening?
>>
>>7967924
And even worse, all that censorship and nsfw crackdowns can be weaponized and utilized by individual normal sfw artists and other independent smaller time creators to target nsfw artists who made porn of their OCs, series and other works. To which they despise and hate because of it.

Because additionally back then, when corpos, publishers and any individual/independent SFW artists or creators see porn and general R34 of their characters, settings and works. They'd request or outright demand the porn and R34 be taken down and deleted or face legal consequences and troubles. Thing is neither the corpos or smaller individual artists who dislike or hate R34 of their OCs and series on the receiving end of some retards or NSFW artists' petty bullshit weren't able to do squat. Simple because there were no existing or technical laws or rules they could use against the nsfw R34 artists or horny retards they despise. Though the corpos and publishers (and maybe even the certain Estates) can use their legions of lawyers and legal teams to issue DMCAs and Cease and Desists against individual nsfw R34 artists in isolated and individual cases. While some individual and independent sfw vanilla artists and creators are rich and wealthy enough to also afford Lawsuits against the nsfw R34 artists they don't like. But even then lawsuits are expensive and the corpos, publishers and other artists avoided it altogether to avoid incurring the Steissand Effect.

But the recent changes spearheaded by the payment processors and even bigger and powerful corpos eliminate the need altogether to do so, though it could certainly go for the kill or add insult injury, on top of all the other damage, both corpos and SFW artists could do.
>>
>>7967949
In other words, it's not only the big giant corpos, publishers, IP holders and Estates you have to worry about. The smaller time individual and independent sfw non-porno artists and creators are joining in and or weaponizing the ongoing NSFW crackdowns. All because some of the individual independent artists and creators out there simply dislike or hate that R34 of their sfw non-porno vanilla OCs and ongoing stories exists and that nsfw artists and horny retards make such things of their work. And back then, sfw vanilla artists and creators had no little to no choice but accept the fact that rule 34 exists and will be made of their OCs and settings. Much to their chagrin, whether they like it or not.

But now these days, thanks to the corpos, publishers and payment processors spearheading the nsfw and porn crackdowns. The seething individual sfw artists and creators can now tattletale to the payment processors, in which this and that nsfw R34 artist has made porn of their vanilla sfw OCs and series and they're possible badmen who harbor and make Cheese Pizza. To which they payment processors will tell the mods and admins of Patreon, Skeb, Pixiv, Gumroad, etc. to then effectively Shadow Ban the nsfw R34 artists, denying them of the payment and profits made from their horny art and commissions. (Because all of this porn purge also serves as Shadow Banning certain individuals, artists and creators that the corpos, publishers and other certain sfw vanilla artists do not like, right)

What a sad timeline we live. Let us pray and wish companies, publishers, sfw vanilla artists and IP holders or estates that hold the rights of certain IPs or media. D not come together to create a new definitive legal law that makes ANY fan made nsfw of copyright material and other IPs now illegal and criminalized because porn and R34 bad.


So did I get that right?

No they cannot, not sure if you realize how much shares they own and that's just on the surface.

Why do payment processors and banks care where the money is made from if it includes someone working? I never understood that.

As Darth Kreia said; Apathy (and carelessness for that matter) is death.

I mean, we're getting into conspiracy territory at this point because we obviously have no idea about the inner workings of why they do what they do. But i'd wager demoralisation and the grasp a monopoly on consumption as a whole. I genuinely wouldn't be surprised if they make it near impossible to view/purchase hentai goods from Japan and then make some Western based hentai company like Fakku that has a monopoly on it. Probably selling vanillashit, interracial, cuck and tranny hentai exclusively lol.
>>
>>7970757
Like 99% of NTR has some kind of "non-consensual" sex and there's barely any tranny/yaoi hentai on Fakku. Incest is really popular on Fakku too and that genre is a no no now so the site will only end up with boring vanillashit at this point. Actually didn't they also ban school/gym uniforms?

No idea dude, i hate Fakku. So i have no idea about what has been going on with them as of late.

That's Getchu.

UPDATE:
DLsite has been having ongoing negotiations with US payment processors, but they are not going well, so they're instructing customers to use alternative payment methods instead of Visa, Mastercard, American Express, ect.

Other sites and services are at a similar crossroads and are trying to figure out if they can survive without these payment methods being available to customers.

Russia is turned off from Visa/MC completely and is doing fine. I hope BRICKS countries will make a based alternative.

Lay off the copium for just a fucking minute, anon. You think the salvation for pornography and independent creative works are THESE countries? At least two of which hate Japan and are engaged with border disputes?
South Africa can't even keep the power on, if you show any wrongthink in China they disappear you and then the road under the partyvan collapses into a sinkhole straight to hell, India can't even get with the concept of eating with utensils or not shitting in the street, Russia is in a war, and Brazil is undergoing political upheaval.

You want to trust those countries with your money? To buy porn? Are you fucking insane?
>>
>>7971179
BRICS will most likely come up with something (presumably tied to the price of gold, in order to get rid of the USD) within our lifetime but Japan is a part of the hostile bloc and US will never let them switch to 'brick' or whatever it will be.
Cartoon porn being literally illegal in at least Russia and China doesn't matter, you can buy tons of illegal shit with USD just as well. For now, the Japanese should adopt at least the most widespread cryptocurrencies.
>>
>>7972224
>US will never let them switch
They wouldn't want to in the first place. Russia's been fighting with them for islands for decades now, China still wants their blood for WW2 crimes, and they restrict themselves from having a standing military beyond the JSDF.
>Cartoon porn being literally illegal in at least Russia and China doesn't matter, you can buy tons of illegal shit with USD just as well
You're swapping one group of dumbasses for another, more incompetent group of dumbasses who have already outright made the subject matter illegal.
The western bloc at least has the saving grace of it not being illegal. Jumping ship to a place where it is, giving them resources, and then hoping they just continue to indefinitely fail at enforcement is an insane prospect.

> For now, the Japanese should adopt at least the most widespread cryptocurrencies.
Japan doesn't need to adopt crypto at all. Cash still represents a majority of transactions over there (Upwards of 60%- from a yearly visitor, it's actually kind of crazy adjusting back to mostly card payments once I return) to the point where you can pay for DLsite shit by just walking to the closest konbini and making a cash payment there. They really, really fucking love paying in cash.

The credit card issue is still a major one for them over there, but they have a lot more alternatives than us to deal with it.

Not him and yes, he is dumb for putting blind faith in these places, but it's actually unlikely that any of them would bother to police cartoon porn, except maybe China. Not the same priorities as the west.
>>
>>7972361
The issue is that India, China, and Russia have implemented internet firewalls and blackouts already. "Unlikely to bother to police cartoon porn" was what got us into this position in the first place, isn't it? Except in this case it's already an existing law that slots in easily with existing behavior.

If things continue as they are, is it unlikely? Certainly. But it's already a far greater hurdle to trusting them with such a responsibility. The choice is between shit credit card companies with retarded, dictatorial policies and...nonexistent theoretical payment systems in areas in the world with retarded dictatorial policies where such content is already against the law.

I mean, I get it, but christ do some people take "enemy of my enemy is my friend" as a hard, constant truth.

>>7972246
You seem to have missed the fact that BRICS expanded, 9 countries now + like 40 more wanting to join. Their currency is supposed to be digital and blockchain-based, perfect for international transactions and dedollarization. This many countries can't effectively control what people do with it.
Problem is, none of us will care about cartoon porn by the time it's made available to the general public. Hopefully, our sons still would.
As for the
>For now, the Japanese should adopt at least the most widespread cryptocurrencies.
part, I meant specifically the OP's problem at this very moment. As in, Japanese hentai sellers should accept cryptocurrencies more liberally than they do now (those who do), or start doing it (those who don't).
On even less related topic, the 'brick' is "R5" backed by the founding states' debt (bonds), according to

Who owns Paypal?
>eBay
>eBay is a publicly traded company, which means its shareholders own it. The largest shareholders of eBay Inc. by May 2023 were institutional investors like State Street Corporation, The Vanguard Group, and BlackRock. eBay's co-founder, Pierre Omidyar, still holds a massive chunk of the company.
Pierre Omidyar knows if artists can get paid to draw smut they'll never need to work a shitty corporate job ever again. They actively want to destroy art as a job now that they know it actually works. Why grind at Amazon or another low-pay high-hour job, when you could draw smut?

All the countries part of that banned porn and America/UK want to do their own spin on that.

and coping Conservatards like >>7970637 will tell you no hardcore holy man is behind it because they're waving the fag flag. Okay i guess that means Trump is lefty and satanpilled because he did the same thing.
