I was wondering it the SG Shop will ever accept other payment methods other than credit cards?
I dont have a creditcard i always use paypal or debit cards to buy online.
I think the shop would get alot more custom this way

Can you not use debit in the shop? I usually enter mine just like a credit card and it works for everything, but I haven't tried it in the shop I don't think.

Hmmm. I totally just used my Debit to buy some panties. Is your debit not connected to a credit company? My bank debit is connected with Visa, so I'm thinking that's why it worked for me.

Either way I think having a paypal option for the store would be brilliant.

They only seem to take MasterCard/Visa. Could it be an intolerance to Maestro company as it is like the European version of MasterCard, even though you choose your location?

As a member I have the option to pay using my account. It seems lousy I can pay for my membership with my bank account, and charge shop items to my account - but as SGs you wouldn't have the option since you're account is free. shocked

It also depends on whether or not they had an account before becoming SGs. I had an account before becoming a hopeful, and that payment information is still on record. When purchasing items from the shop, I had the option to use that account or to use another payment method. Anyway, perhaps a phone-in order system?

debit cards in the UK are different to in the US. in the US they are just mastercard or visa.

maestro (especially in the UK) isn't just a "version" of mastercard, it's entirely separate on it's own system, and can't be used many places outside of the UK and not at all outside of europe. mastercard are only credit cards or prepaid top up cards in the UK and never debit unlike in the US.

getting my US mastercard debit was the best thing ever, too bad they don't have them in europe frown

This is the American system I believe. Cherry pointed out the difference in Europe, and in Canada I know the banks are national institutions, so the cards are unaffiliated with credit companies.

Good for lots, bad for online shopping.

On the topic of the shop, are they ever going to restock the sizes for the shirts or come up with new items?

I really want one of those 'Vintage' SG Tee's but they only have XXL's anymore...

Yeah, I'm pretty sure someone from staff confirmed that one in a thread long ago and far away. A pity, really. Everyone loses.

Wouldn't that be because you're still going to have to pay for your account once your freebie runs out, if you're not selected to be an SG? I mean, I'm no SG so I don't know for sure, but I'd imagine they don't keep payment info on record for any SG because their accounts are comped forever. They'll never have to pay for membership again.

So what I'm saying is, why is it that you can use a bank account to purchase a membership - but not to purchase goodies from the shop? Or if you want an easier way to think of it: Why don't they keep payment info for SGs (with an opt out consideration) for the sole purpose of using the "charge to account" feature for them too?

I can see that sounding a little weird especially for girls who go straight to Limbo -- like, "Great! Now we have your pics, here's a free profile, a cheque is on the way, and... please give us your credit card number just in case."

I think adding a paypal-like service (do all other ban porn sites?) would be the most efficient, if possible.

I agree; I've been thinking this for a long time. I have no intention of ever getting a credit card and few of my friends do either as we're all quite young, so I'm just sat here stroking the pictures haha

Visa debit cards work in the shop as I've used my Barclays Connect card before. UK banks are rather clever at introducing cards that no one will take, not even shops
