Your business account is blocked? Is that right?
Not really, in some countries, courts have ruled, that PayPal is not above the law and declared these paragraphs in the ToS as invalid.
Ordered one then realized no paypal, so was unable to pay. Then read the paypal comments. I think you should allow paypal as many people will more likely to order if you have paypal. Even with the increased fees you will have more customer.
To overcome PayPal surcharge clause the Seller can add handling fee of say $1 for ALL payment types thereby not breaking the Paypal agreement; and after that provide an account credit of $1 to all non-paypal buyers. Paypal has nothing to do about the (usage of) money Seller has already collected. So the Seller is not going against TOS of Paypal and Buyers are happy. win-win for both!
So this means you do charge the same handling fee for all payment options (e.g. also for Stripe if you were to offer PP and Stripe as payment option)? Not sure if customers would want to pay a handling fee for any type of transaction because this, ultimately, adds to the deal price.
I also think it's unfair to charge more to everyone just because paypal has higher fees.
I will probably never allow paypal, unless they change their current path on raising fees every now and then. I don't see why everyone cannot use Stripe? I use Stripe checkout so you enter your CC on their site, we don't store them. It's also very secure but we just pay less fees.
If you have your credit/debit card stored in your Apple/Google wallet it's just as easy to checkout as well.
If you really have to use paypal, checkout Millennial hosts offer. They're quite good too https://www.lowendtalk.com/discussion/172675/mlnl-host-rebranding-and-new-nat-offers-1#latest
This reminds me of an old Chinese story:
maybe you shoud use the small payments plan in PayPal Google it
yup! Same goes for any Product/Service plans. Seller can just put on a 1st fake plan (and mark is as sold out) or keep a real plan with say $30/mo price which is quite high, and at same time offer 2nd plan for $15/mo with features bit-less than the higher priced one.. Now the psychology of a customer is, they'll see the 1st plan with whooping $30 price-tag, and will incline to buy the $15 plan = more sales. Some big pocket customer might buy the 1st plan - win win for the seller!
Mjj nest and LET owned by same boss?
I'm thinking more like this:
Most would pay 25% more to get double resources.
Boomer and Millennial owned by same boss.
So mjj boss mjj @codydoby isn't LET boss sir @jbiloh in disguise?
I can assure you we are not.
Do you see us demanding payments in cheques and complaining about cups of coffees costing $5? No sir!
Tacky
OK boomer
Jesus, no! I'm not that old. I'm a mid-80's Millennial.
I'm going to post my next offer in a few days, and I am wondering if there are any particular offers that you want to see? I can do KVM as well as OVZ, maybe you want to see some even cheaper deals but lower specs. 3.5/yr, 256MB ram etc.
Let me know! Feel free to post offer suggestions of your ideal VPS and I'll consider them
1TB storagebox for 7/Yr ?
I am limited with the 4TB SSD I got as usable space. The datacenter said they were looking to sell me a 5TB HDD for 150USD, so with a setup fee of 20USD i'm sure your above deal is fine
Would love to see 512MB ram plan.
interested
This has to be my favorite lol
OVZ7 1GB ram container fine? Or do you want KVM?

Actually, on the web hosting that's still work in progress it's going to be using ApisCP, test site https://test.boomer.host/
It seems great and all https://apiscp.com/. I can't wait for the reseller packages. ApisCP UI suck balls like the current clientexec, but it's very well setup and extreamly easy to manage if you want to install Wordpress etc. Much better than Cpanel
It would also be great if they would offer LiteSpeed web server, but they have no plans on doing so when I asked
Would be interested, too. But only if it will be KVM ;-) What about bandwith?
would i be able to change from ovz to kvm even if specs will be reduced
1.08USD/TB seems like a fair price, it's literally the cost of the bandwidth.
300GB per month (3.6TB per year) with the option to buy extra bandwidth for the above price
No sorry. No support is also no transfers as this cannot be automated
Yeah the specs on the kvm will be reduced a lot.
3600GB Bandwidth per year, 300GB monthly. But I cannot recommend KVM for such a budget VM, it will eat your RAM
Tray Caddys has been ordered and it will arrive next week. That's when you will see the massive offer thread. OVZ, KVM, and the storage offer
