About This Tutorial
The problem with trying to sell digital products on arbitrary platforms is that they have gatekeepers.

Stripe and PayPal had blocked our account citing "fiscal irregularities" and "currency exchange risks", effectively cutting us off from our customers. We needed a payment processor that would work around the world, without any restrictions.
