Hello,

Hope you all are doing great, I know crypto is there to eliminate banks etc but why ICO dont allow purchasing through credit or debit card, if we eliminate the factor of charge back etc like simplex provide at bitstamp ?

Lets say I am launching my Proof of Stake coin , where I allow people to buy coins using their credit or debit card and I get Fiat currency, later when these people will take coins on a Exchange will that have any effect that this coin was not sold using ETH or BITCOIN ?

It would feel really weird for me to use Fiat to purchase a coin that is against fiat. I may just be overthinking it.

My opinion to this is because others will turned to scam at the end. It is not safe to just put your important details about your bank account. You can't be sure they have a legitimate project and doing a fraudalent act that will stole your money.

Even liveEdu accepts fiat, though not main method for contribution. What am saying is, more ico accepts fiat than you think.

One theory I think the reason why cryptocurrencies don't allow purchasing thru credit card is because credit company didn't allow them. Purchase using credit card can be subject for abuse from the owner of the card. For example, the scenario is the credit card holder is compromise or not worthy he/she might purschase a lot of crypts that eventually convert it to cash. The owner of the card didn't not have any plan to pay the transaction made thru credit card. A lot of risk will be burden to credit card company if they allow the purchase of crypts.

That's why they aim to get on exchanges where you can buy tokens with your credit card. Just picked up some ITC off of Huobi today. great coin to look into. https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/iot-chain/

Hi,

This is Phil from Deedcoin.

Most ICOs cannot accept credit cards because they are not qualified to be transacted by a processor.

However, with the usability of Deedcoin, and its practicality in an already established ecosystem, on top of being a securities-compliant token, we do accept credit card purchases.

We believe the standard of ethics in the ICO industry needs to be raised so we aim to lead by example.

Thanks,

Phil

NOTE: The maximum amount that can be purchased at this time is 1500 Tokens, with the exception of Accredited Investors.
