Using credit card and mastercard

[mortensen]

I have problem with getting a gateway checkout that works with my island because they dont have certaon agreement Some told me they are working on it. But Paypak said that I can use my credit card and visa card to let the customers pay. Do I need to have a gateway checkout? Or can I use my credit card or visa card? We have an company on our island that offer also integration services., and one can sell to all the Caribbean countries. Can I use this company Can iy be added at the gateway checkout list that yr company are working with.

A payment gateway is needed for commercial shops or sites that take payment rather than sending money.

Things like PayLine and PayPal are payment gateways, and they are treated as e-wallets even though there is no physical way to withdraw money from them, much less top up from a terminal. It's more of an internal transfer system from where people will withdraw money to a special card, and it has to be ordered. Without a physical card, a person can put money into it temporarily to be able to pay later on a website or in a shop. This is the gateway. It can be used as a transit transaction for example for chalkkids.co.uk cards or other credit cards. I like the fact that credit card debits can be held in the gateway until they go to the recipient's account. It's a guarantee of my solvency, so such gateways are in principle acceptable in monetary transactions.

The payment gateway is usually needed for commercial shops.

I think that Paypal would have said that their "customers" can indirectly use their credit cards linked to their Paypal accounts rather than use their credit cards with a payment gateway, which is just normal. I think they misunderstood what Paypal said. Or they have misreported what they said. So as far as I can see, there isn't any problem with setting up Paypal in their store. Their only problem is a payment gateway for directly processing credit cards. You can also try https://www.greedyrates.ca/blog/best-credit-cards-canada-2017/ for more information.

Before that, I did not think about it, but now, having become an adult and independent, I plunged into my financial system. It's terrible that financial literacy is not taught in schools, after leaving school, it took me a lot of time to figure it out. How to pay taxes, utilities, when I took out a loan, I can write a book about it. Besides that I am glad to find this source https://papersowl.com/examples/terrorism/ which helped me a lot to understand in general what is going on in the world. I think schools and colleges need to be reorganized, because the way they work now they are ineffective.

I understand you so perfectly, I too am a hater of the education system we have, I hope something changes soon.

I know this is an older thread, but I came across it and wanted to add. Have you looked into payment aggregators like Paddle or FastSpring? They sometimes work for countries that aren't listed
Also, maybe try contacting CXPAY directly to see if they support Curacao. What did you end up doing? Curious if you found a solution

Have you checked if any local banks in Curacao offer merchant accounts?
That could give you a proper gateway without needing to move anywhere.
