But those are all one way to pay:
Private delivery of local fiat via established corporate banking channels.
And yes most of them do come at a discount.
Any altcoin dev can have this respect for their coin. All they have to do is guarantee that they will buy back all coin received by the merchant at a stable, pre-determined rate.
Any coin dev that offers to buy all coins at a reasonable enough rate (not xx,xxx/1 USD, more like 10/1) will immediately have the most "popular" and "adopted" coin since bitcoin.
But it will probably never trade over the dev-offered rate. At that time it's just a difficult way to move your fiat.
If you can get enough of a start to sell it at exchanges for $.09, get a merchant to credit it as $.10, and buy it back from them as $.08 (similar to other fiat deliveries) you could get something going.

Also, just looking up Gaijin Online.
Their options include the regular cards, followed by Webmoney E-wallet, EcoCard, DixiePay, Skrill, InstaDebit, SafetyPay, XSolla Card and JCB.
As you can see, they all take a large variety of options for payments. They aren't stuck on the basic Credit Card/Paypal/Debit transactions so many other businesses rely on, that the sell should be easier then trying to get any other larger business to accept. The other bonus for the company. The customer is purchasing virtual items within their game. They aren't taking as great of a risk as a company selling actual product that they have no control over after it leaves their store. If they don't get their money from the transaction. Poof!! Virtual machine gun bullets vaporize from the customers account.

Just something I was thinking of, that could REALLY put your alt crypto on the map.
Everytime I read about another Alt Crypto opening up, I always see "Gaming site in the works" or a deal is being negotiated. And everytime it ends up being the same 2 bit gambling site. Some of the sites even look like they were programmed by high school kids for a school project. That's not a gaming site.
I think some developer that really wants their crypto to grow needs to contact an actual gaming company, and see if they can get on the big list of currencies they take. In the gaming world, Free to Play is becoming HUGE. Many big companies are even forgoing making their customers pay for AAA games, that used to cost customers $60+, instead looking at microtransactions for payments. These microtransactions are worth millions if not billions of dollars.
Every gaming site I look at has a multitude of different ways for payment. I am looking at Wargaming.com's website right now, and see all these options for getting the company money for microtransactions:
Visa/MasterCard/AMEX/Debit/Ultimate Gaming card/DAO Pay/InstaDebit/Skrill/HyperWallet/Western Union/PaySafe Card/UKash and Safety Pay. A lot of these cards, the manufactures are paying huge fees in order to get the money transferred to them. Notice how cryptocurrency is not mentioned in that list. Yet it could be the currency that allows companies like Wargaming to decrease their payment fees.
A side benefit. A majority of gamers have decent GPU's in their computers. They could in turn start mining, which they would more then likely be feeding back into the games they are playing. It's a win-win for the gaming companies, since it would help increase the amount of money it is bringing in.
There are many different companies just like this one sitting out there looking for new and cheaper ways of getting the funds flowing into their games. Any developer that would talk to companies like these might end up scoring a win, and become a partner. It shouldn't take to long to see what a huge benefit it would be for a coin to have a win this big.
Just something to think about.
