I’m calling to urge you to immediately end your new policy that unfairly targets the adult content industry, making sex workers even more vulnerable. I’m also asking you to sit down with stakeholders- specifically sex workers and adult content creators- to develop solutions that ensure equitable access to financial services, create stability, and reduce harm for sex workers.
the card NETWORK is the part at issue; not the type of payment
the same is roughly true for europe and the rest of the world too: payment processors facilitate transactions over various card networks which communicate between banks
a single payment probably involves at least 6 different business facilitating the transaction, and only a couple of them are your bank, and the business you’re paying
