is it really that difficult to

you know

just go to your local bank and discuss a contract to use their own payment gateway?

@kitten that absolutely exists
but its really hard if you are an international thing like steam or itch.io

it works totally fine for local stuff, e.g. student org did some thign like that when we used pretix for some event

@4censord is it difficult as an international thing for like contract reasons or?

because like, otherwise it'd just fetch money from Visa and Mastercard's network and that's it anyway, isn't it? the same way one pays with one's credit card when abroad just fine

@kitten well, the local systems usually only do e.g. german cards, not international ones.
(this specifically isnt using visa/mastercards system, but the german girocard one)

or, its using e.g. sepa direct debit, or bank transfer, but that requires a sepa bank account and/or the ability for users to do transactions (iirk not really a thing for americans for example)
