Real Money Trading

So will this affect buying zc from the main zc page? Edit i mean here!

Staff, especially Niet, have said that they will not change actual ZC pricing, as it is based off of GBP, and PFQ is based in the UK. (At least the company Niet created.) Hope that helps? ;o

This page is what I'm worried about leaving as this is how I even buy ZC D: https://pokefarm.com/zc/paypal

I'll probably end up rewording the link to the PayPal page. I don't anticipate removing it as an option, that'd be silly. But I still encourage people to use the "main" Stripe option if possible, as it is cheaper both for us in terms of fees, and you in terms of currency conversions.

Glad to hear that, I don't have stripe or anything else really so paypal is it for me and I like to buy my hypermode

Stripe is not a thing you need to have an account for. It is a processor that lets you use your card directly. That is why it is cheaper: no middleman.

but why can i still BUY zc from the site then, that is also real life money for digital goods ??? another question too: can i still do art for pfq things (melans, summons, etc)? i mean art is not money but i just want to be safe?

the major worry was not exactly plain money exchanging from users, it was the fact that: - people can be scammed very easily with RMTs (either someone loses real money, or their PFQ items) - tax evasion - ppl who are able to hack in other user's accounts to sell off their items for real money (the account breach incident awhile back) buying from the site is like using money to buy in-game currency, just like any other game. except it has a secure transaction rather than trading with other people and hoping you dont get unlucky and scammed or other reasons, etc. it was also stated somewhere in the previous comments that you can trade art for items still, yes. *anyone feel free to correct me if i was missing something but ive been following this thread for awhile and this is most of the info

thank u for clarifying :333

going back to this, where would the line be drawn on purchasing items? am i allowed to do something like... get my friend a nintendo online sub for a melan or something like that? sounds okay according to what you've said (unless it's against nintendo TOS, i'm just making hypotheticals), but following on from that - would someone be able to make an amazon wishlist and get things bought on there for pokemon? that sounds a bit like a loophole, probably a silly question but i thought i'd ask
