Pay Pal Porn now approved for use ?? I recently ask on on a poll about sites that use PayPal. Apparently in June 2013 Paypal executives voted to approve the use. These sites apparently accept paypal now . At : http://paypalporn.blogspot.com/ they put an article and some sites. ( I have not checked or verified the authenticity ). But leads one to think it has chnaged. Anyone have any in site on this ? I will search and add more if I find anything about it. UPDATE: Apparently: There is no Paypal option for US based customers, only in Europe (andorra, austria, belgium, cyprus, denmark, finland, france, germany, gibraltar, luxembourgh, greece, greenland, ireland, iceland, isle of man, israel, italy, liechstestein, malta, monaco, netherlands, norway, portugal, romania, san marino, slovenia, spain, sweden, switzerland, turkey, united kingdom, vatican, This is all europe (includes Swiss, Norway, Romania) + Israel, Turkey.) But that just occurred in June 2013 The USA has not accepted Paypal for porn since the EBAY bought Paypal. Still dont......... Yet ??  CT Since 2007 Edited on Aug 21, 2013, 08:27am | |

More hypocrisy from the United States. Porn is big business here - we just don't want to appear to condone it. I wouldn't expect PayPal/eBay to roll over any time soon, if at all. Sarcasm is a body's natural defense against stupidity. | |

I sent you an answer to the message you requested ..from the poll it was on. Its been a while since I used paypal, but a number of sites I've reviewed was serviced by them. Like I said .... I haven't had any problem being accepted. In fact, their logo normally appears along side other Processors ..... just click, an you got it. Maybe they changed since then ... I don't know. They do have a phone number which I also included in your poll reply. I might add I get the same favorable response from CCbill. | |

Yet ebay lets you buy and sell (with PayPal) all kinds of porn and sex toys in its "Adults Only" category--the guidelines seem to allow damn near everything but used underwear and swearing.  In other words PayPal'll take your dirty heathen money, they just don't want you to be too upfront about what you're buying with it.  "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it?

Yep, Turbo I just bought some adult DVD's on there with Paypal. One thing I do not like is Ebay does not monitor copyrighted bootlegs as well as they should , I ended up with an pirated copy a few weeks ago from a guy selling these for years. Since 2007 | |

I'm not sure how ebay would monitor bootlegs/piracy without buyers sending complaints directly to them or putting it explicitly in the feedback. It sucks buying online, but especially ebay, because you can't physically handle the product and a lot of time sellers just put up a generic photo for multiple items ("Same photo I use on other items. I don't care, fuck you. But please give me 5 stars!"  ). Laziness, ignorance, and general indifference on the part of sellers is ebay's Achilles heel, IMHO. Sometimes I want to give people bad feedback just from reading one of their listings.  "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it?

I hear ya, I did complain once on a guy selling adult photos that had brazzers, digitaldesire etc water marked. Took a few months but got a notice saying they verified it was fraud. Problem is they setup shop get closed down. Get a walmart credit card open up a new paypal and ebay account and go back in business. Since 2007 | |

That's not the main reason Paypal doesn't allow you adult content. Paypal doesn't allow people to use it to pay for porn because porn has pretty much the highest chargeback rate (i.e. people asking banks/credit card companies to reverse the charges) of any other online transaction. And those chargebacks cost Paypal money each time. So they'd just rather not deal with it. | |

Too many people buy porn and then when their partner finds out they claim it was credit card fraud and get it refunded. I don't know why PayPal are worried about costs, every other billing company passes the costs straight to the website. Webmaster of StripGameCentral and A Measure of Curiosity. | |

And I am sure guys do it over and over again not realizing it shows up on the statement. Paypal is just trying to look conservative in a liberal industry. But hey its a business they can do what they want even though they would triple r more profits in  a year by simply accepting porn sites, Since 2007 | |

I'm not so sure about that. On their website the help center section has restrictions on firearms, prescription drugs, sexually-related goods and services, as well as "goods and services that may promote hate, violence, or intolerance," whatever that could be stretched to entail. Sounds more controversy-averse than conservative, and pretty far away from libertarian which many of their original founders seem to be (hates taxes on their gigantic fortunes and want laws loosened on numerous social issues).

There doesn't seem to have been any official acknowledgement of a relaxation. They used to fine webmasters for breaking the rules so I'm not taking the risk until I see something official. Webmaster of StripGameCentral and A Measure of Curiosity. | |

What odd is in a not too far past all that was allowed. I hear what you are saying TB, but I can help but think somne things they do are politically motivated after all looks like they do allot some oversees sites. So company policy ? Not sure that it is, seems more like they are trying to politically correct on all sides . Dood Luck on all that lol Since 2007 | |

I don't know if you can use PayPal to pay for a Porn site membership, but I think that in general, many credit card companies are leery of letting their customers pay for memberships to Porn sites or their billing companies. Last night, I tried to pay for a membership to 18XGirls. Both SegPay and CCBILL reported the transaction could not be completed when I used a Mastercard. The transaction was approved when I switched to a Visa Card. The funny thing is, I have used that Mastercard for payments to CCBILL before, but each time, I had to contact the credit card company to state that the transaction was approved. The Mastercard was blocked in each case for possible fraudulent activity until I contacted them, last night, and on other occasions when I used it to authorize a CCBILL payment. But last night, I couldn't use that Mastercard to make a CCBILL payment. And a block was placed on the account until I contacted them this morning, to say that I recognized the charge--even though the charge was not approved. Edited on Aug 26, 2013, 07:38am | |
