wbb Discontinuation of the paysafecard Payment Option As of May 1, 2023

[Guest Marcel Werk]

We would like to advise that we will discontinue the option to pay via paysafecard on woltlab.com as of May 1, 2023.

 

 

 

In recent years, the interest of our customers in paying with paysafecard has steadily decreased and we have seen a consistent shift towards other payment methods such as PayPal and credit cards. Following the transition from electronic cash cards to (debit) credit cards, which has already started at some banks, we cannot see any indications of a contrary trend here either. Additional regulations, such as the requirement of a “myPaysafe” account for transactions above a certain threshold, have also led to a noticeable decline.

 

 

 

In view of the low transaction numbers with paysafecard, the associated administrative effort, and the disproportionately high transaction costs of well over 10% of the invoice amount, we will therefore no longer offer this payment method starting May 1, 2023.
