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.

    Here are the options:

    • credit - visa, MasterCard, discover, American Express (all ubiquitous)
    • debit - mostly mastercard, some are visa
    • Prepaid cards - mostly MasterCard and Visa, amex has one too
    • mobile Payments (Samsung, Apple, Google) - you pay using credit or debit; I’ll include PayPal here too
    • cash - doesn’t work online obviously, and some places don’t accept it or at least discourage it (e.g. many self checkouts, food trucks, smaller restaurants)
    • checks - like cash, but many stores don’t accept them at all

    Some online places accept bank transfers, but that’s mostly for paying regular bills, not anonymous checkout.

    There are some fringe ones like money orders (basically cash), cryptocurrencies (very rarely accepted), and Venmo (mostly just food trucks, fairs, and small restaurants).
