PayPal is Not Suitable for All

Hello Lensmasters,

I have created this lens just to raise the discussion about the limited payment options offered by Squidoo to its lensmasters, which is limited currently to PayPal only. Out of my own experience (being an International user) I found that PayPal is not suitable for me and many others, because simply PayPal will not accept payments from internet companies (like Squidoo) and credit them to international users' accounts. The large Community, Squidoo is trying to build means that international users should be on such a strategic agenda, otherwise, Squidoo will not have the variety / diversity it is aiming to achieve. Lensmasters need such a motive to continue (receiving revenues can be a good incentive), without it, users might start o quit and fly away.

    As of now, I haven't experience it yet and I don't want to. Anyway, you have a point that Squidoo must have other payment method.
    Anyway, I just want to thank you for featuring my My Squidoo Earnings lens. I guess, I should support this lens too. Enjoy what you are doing. :)

    I hope they add other payment methods. I'm from Egypt which isn't supported by paypal. There are also a lot of other countries that aren't supported by paypal. So I think it isn't wise for squidoo to offer only paypal as a way of payment.
