How am I supposed to pay the subscription fee?

[Raist]

By recurring debit card subscription like everyone else?

I only have a debit card, not seeing the issue

That's great for you... you have one that works. Not all cards work for all systems. We ran into a similar thing years ago with XI, where if your card did not support J-Secure, Secure Visa, or Secure Code (MC version)... you couldn't use them. Then there were the banks that were rejecting the international transactions (or charging fees for various reasons--international transaction, conversion fee, wire transfer fee, etc.).

The point is that their implementations of the CC option are not as globally accepting as an option like the UP/Paypal was.

Camate posted in one of the other threads that they indeed are working on an option to bring back PayPal, he just didn't have any specific details that could be divulged at this time.
