How about accepting payments from these countries listed above?

I have some traffic that listed on their list how about if the customer is living on these countries listed above do they disabled my account permanently?
How would they know where the payment came from?
I haven't used Coinpayments, so not sure about their system. But I know how Bitpay works.
When we check out, we land on Bitpays payment processing page and from there they know which country you are from - so if you are from the restricted country you won't be able to make payment.


I don't know how they're going to run business by restricting their services to the countries which have a good crypto history.
can't tell if you're serious or just joking...Did you read the list? Nepal, Zambia, Syria, Vanuatu, Eritrea, etc...tell me, what crypto history do these countries have? 99% of people in this planet don't even know where most of those countries are on a map.
Syria has 1000s of years history afaik, it's not a new country which popped up a few 100 years ago. Not sure about Nepal, Zambia about their history but Eritrea is definitely the new one which I knew right now and I think I heard Vanuatu before.  Smiley

That's odd, I have an acc there but I didn't receive any emails  Huh maybe the only ones who got this email were the users living in one of the countries from the list? Btw, is it just me or there have been a lot "service restriction" news popping up lately related to cryptocurrency services?

dogs are cute.
It's time to switch to another payment gateway
Maybe switch to another one if the work is less, or you may add a new gateway which accepts all?
This is my big problem right now I can't seem to find any legit alternative for coinpayments that accept other altcoins.

Wordpress recommends Gourl as an alternative but there are many complaints that Gourl is scam.

Anyway, I'm waiting for coinpayments response and hoping that it's still allowed to sell service on these locations listed above.
What about this one: https://coingate.com/ but it kinda seems they are scammers(https://www.trustpilot.com/review/coingate.com,https://www.reddit.com/r/btc/comments/avkb93/coingate_are_scammers/,https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4492476.0).

Their list is basically half the countries on this Earth lol I don't know how they're going to run business by restricting their services to the countries which have a good crypto history. They're good enough for informing people about it and willing to refund by talking to their support. It's rare to see such nice things in the crypto world lol

I can't say surely about this, but I think the restriction will affect the payment system also. You may want to contact them to get a solid answer?


I have some traffic that listed on their list how about if the customer is living on these countries listed above do they disabled my account permanently?

My country is not listed there but I have some visitors that listed on their list do you think it's allowed to sell service on the location listed above even my country is not listed?
Customers will find a way around if they really interested in your product/service I guess.
As an example, I use namecheap and namecheap uses Bitpay and Bitpay restricted my place - so whenever I need to make a payment I need to use a VPN.
