why does paypal still have bullshit service charges when most things with alipay is free?

they gotta make money somehow

aliexpress makes its money on the products

i feel like paypal is outdated

Welcome @Flycheese!

aliexpress makes money off alipay

by ensuring that the sellers wont chink you

so they act as insurance

knowing you'll buy from aliexpress forever

luckily in china, everyone uses alipay for everything because of free service charges,. can bring it up on my phone in a retail store and they scan my QR code

actually sometimesd get a discount cause the store avoided getting a card service charge

i want the west to adapt this

good luck

We had "tap" cards in the west for like a year, but nobody liked it and everyone stopped supporting it

sorry not west, i meant america

and then we had QR codes, which were nifty, but everyone forgot those too after a year

so right now its either pay with card, or cash.

but some places are starting to accept applepay or whatever

and i think i saw some weird computer store taking bitcoins

everyone uses tap to pay in europe

only america is paranoid about it
