Question: Are you considering to add another option for purchase in Torishop?
Answer, please, simple and in plain English:
a) Yes
b) No
That is all I want to know. I'm not interested in personal opinions about BitPay or any other payment method, nor I asked for them. Thank you.
And I'm purchasing games from Steam without any problems using one of their many payment method with my VISA card, but I can't link my card with PayPal account since it doesn't support my country. So, without any other options, logically, I can't buy Toriprime, thus: your methods of payments are limited and not quite 'friendly' toward some countries (we can say minority, but fact stays: without more options for purchase there is a sense of animosity).
There are reasons for Paypal, mostly that they handle subscriptions & monthly payments which most others don't. They also don't butt rape you for every payment you receive, there is a charge, but not a huge one. A payment processor is chosen by how well it suits the situation after all.
If another was to be added it would most likely be a mobile based one, which once again would exclude a lot of places. However due to limits on the size of each payment that can be made + the huge % that gets raped it's unlikely to happen.
It's one thing to make quips about a company not wanting money, it's another to understand that after all the charges & exchange shit most other payment methods result in only a tiny amount reaching the seller. Simply put, the work would outweigh the result severely.

if there was a regular credit card option, like everywhere else has, Id probably have used it.
You can use a normal card via Paypal without having a Paypal account so long as it's a one off payment & not something that requires repeats. In that respect it's no different to any other payment processor, all of which have their own country limits etc.
Gotta remember that you can use other payment methods for some stuff here, well by "some" it's actually TC... But yeah, it's not all Paypal.
