  I sold my $PYPL shares at a loss. PayPal is cheap, but not a good buy right now because they still need to prove it can grow again. Maybe their new CEO will fix some of the issues and the stock flies again but as of right now I think there are better opportunities elsewhere.

  @Heleneafernande Hmm, I’ll check the promo code logic. Yeah, I’m also planning to add PayPal and proper card payments soon hopefully as early as possible, because some people are still running into payment issues.

  @NotA_Bull See the potential is there the issue is the time frame. So many good plays right now which will give you solid returns within weeks or months. So who would want to invest in a dead slow mover. Examples Nvo Dis Nke Jd Baba Baidu Pfizer Netflix PayPal The list is endless

  How to avoid this issue!! 1. Do not ever disclose that you do nsfw or lewd art. Nsfw is against PayPal tos. Ask your client not to too. (Seems bad but we have no choice) 2. Do not deliver the files through paypal if it’s nsfw. 3. You do need some details on invoices. Make it as generic as possible. Eg. “full body art commission on xyz, to be delivered on xyz”. Keep your NSFW details away from PayPal!!

  FYI! No, the game “Harvest Arrows” (likely referring to “Harvest Arrow Maze” on the App Store) does not reliably cash out. It’s a logic/arrow puzzle game that heavily advertises cash rewards (e.g., PayPal withdrawals) for reaching certain levels, often promoted with claims like cashing out after level 15. However, user reviews and similar games in this category show it’s designed to keep players engaged with ads while making actual payouts extremely difficult or impossible. Common Issues Reported: • Moving goalposts: Players reach the advertised withdrawal level (e.g., 15), only to be told they now need $1,000, $10,000, or more. Earnings per puzzle often drop to fractions of a cent after a point. • No actual payouts: Many reviews describe hitting high “balances” but being unable to withdraw. The game shows fake progress (e.g., stuck at 99%) and requires endless ads without delivering real money. • Scam-like tactics: Similar arrow/tap puzzle games (e.g., Arrow Way Out, Tap Arrows) are widely called out as fake cash apps that use AI-generated ads and deceptive mechanics. They monetize through ads but don’t pay users. These types of games are common on app stores. They promise easy real-money rewards but rarely (if ever) deliver, as confirmed by broader discussions on reward games. Legitimate cash-earning apps exist but usually offer much smaller, verifiable payouts through established platforms. Recommendation: Treat it as a free puzzle game for entertainment only—don’t expect or play for cash. If you’re looking for games that actually pay, stick to well-reviewed ones with transparent redemption (and low minimums), but even those typically pay very little for the time invested.

  Hey @CanadaSoccerEN I got your code for WC26 tickets but the Shopify Store is not working correctly and is not able to pass the transaction to PayPal for payment. I've tried 3 browsers with the same issue. Is something broken?

  @ns1778 @realradec HBO doesn't take "foreign" card payments. Even with PayPal, we technically can't legally. I had to buy an account through a website and get the login. Well using a VPN but now I have both suits, so no complaints about it.

  Motorola got caught injecting affiliate codes into your Amazon purchases. on a $1,900 phone. the integration docs got deleted hours after Reddit found it. same move as Honey/PayPal in 2024, except this one is baked into the OS. fix: Settings > Apps > Smart Feed > Disable. not a bug. someone approved this.

  @PattyTrills Imagine being so insecure you have to flex your finances on someone going through financial trouble. You reap what you sow and if I had to guess soyboyluke's PayPal account is going to dry up pretty quick here.

  @totonna9 @HolyMolySakura This is correct. I had zero issue wiring from a US bank account to the Ishikawa zoo info listed on the zoo site. If they can ever get a paypal/venmo link the numbers would pop but i get the rules and the fact this is a very small zoo with not many resources. But can confirm zero issues from US banks to Ishikawa Zoo bank.

  slack, jira, github, paypal, amplitude integrations already there. since plugins are built on mcp, any existing mcp server can work as a plugin too
