In Japan, most of the convenience stores are very well distributed making it that you often times have one close-by. Additionally, a lot of those convenience stores are 24/7 open. With it being open any time and having it close-by, it is still convenient enough if you can muster to go to a store and pay by cash. If you live in the city for example, you have one that only takes 1 to 10 minutes by foot.
That doesn’t sound convenient at all
If I had to choose between that and VISA telling me I can’t buy a game because it hurts their feefees…
I really don’t think this kind of maneuver from payment processors should be allowed at all.
Or maybe there should simply be a more diverse array of payment processors?
I would love a payment neutrality scheme a la net neutrality but that isn’t gonna happen so
not in the usa, unfortunately for you (and us in europa, heck it affects us worldwide). :(
the damn Wero shall expand faster! >:(

compared to just using your card when you make the order it is much less convenient
Much more convenient than using a card.
If my assbackwards country can do it, so can any other country.
