    Businesses are better of not using Paypal or Creditcards, both of the are a hassle and cost more time to process than a digital pin transaction or an old school bank transfer.

    You have to use what is available in your country, a lot of countries have their own payment platform and they are being consolidated into one Wero.

    As long as people keep using Mastercard or Visa they will have this power.

      Yeah people keep using them because there are no other options. That’s the point that’s why they’re powerful because they have a monopoly.

      The thing is the only alternative is to use cash and steam won’t take a bank transfer.
