iJeff Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 I love to support developers, however I can't buy any of the paid mods or themes in the Marketplace due to the fact that paypal doesn't accept payment from Pakistan. I can easily grab these themes or mods from warez sites or torrents, But I hate it. Therefore I am requesting, kindly sort this out. I am already an active customer of IPB and I can't figure why can't IPB just charge my credit card on files than redirecting me to paypal site... it's really uncool and unprofessional when you already have your very own credit card charge system. please consider it.

AndyF Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 I would guess this is actually an issue with Paypal not accepting payments from various countries rather than anything here as such. I do sympathise though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iJeff Posted December 13, 2011 Author Share Posted December 13, 2011 But I am rather curious, when IP does have its own credit card processor why do they need paypal for marketplace? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyF Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 That's something staff / management will have to answer for you. :) I just wanted to point out it seems to me at least to be a Paypal concern rather than here but lets await an 'official' answer.

Dmacleo Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 always seemed odd to me TBH, IP takes CC to but the product but does not allow CC to be used to buy its mods from its own system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iJeff Posted December 13, 2011 Author Share Posted December 13, 2011 it's actually quite pain in the ass for me... I am either requesting devs to give me mods as a gift or accept moneybookers/alertpay - some dev would agree to 'create' an account on alternative service while some would just not reply or some would be just kind enough to gift me. but this whole thing drives me nuts.. esp., when you have money to buy and you don't choose piracy and want to support developers too.

Management Charles Posted December 13, 2011 Management Share Posted December 13, 2011 The IPS Marketplace is a separate system from our normal client operations. We collect a small fee to process payments and also make payouts to developers that submit to the Marketplace. It is important the Marketplace and our normal operations remain separate.

Management Charles Posted December 13, 2011 Management Share Posted December 13, 2011 There's no real way to tell but I would doubt many as it seems PayPal is supported in many countries: https://www.paypal.com/worldwide/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find myself quite helpless.... do you have anything to help me out? or just leave me at the mercy of warez portals? Have you tried contacting the author directly? You can try to find a way to pay him directly and then he can manually add you in his customers list here in the IPS Marketplace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
