How to: Alternate way to buy scripts when paypal declines or refuses to use your Credit card

[Khaleesi]

Recently I had multiple people not being able to buy something from the store because their Card got blocked/refused.
Well there is a way around it in most cases! Gift cards!

1. Navigate to: https://osbot.org/forum/store/gift-cards/
2. Select "Other" as amount and enter the amount you need. (The exact amount)
3. Select "Print" as way to get the gift card (Mails can be very slow)
4. Add Gift card to cart
5. Place order and Pay, this will redirect you to paypal again but it uses another way/algoritm to pay. (Don't ask me why or how)
6. If all went well on paypal you should get a confirmation
7. Navigate to : https://osbot.org/forum/clients/purchases/
8. Find your Gift card, click the "Manage" button
9. Click the "Print" buttom
10. You should see your voucher code, follow the steps on the gift card to redeem it
11. Continue buying the script you need, you should be able to select to pay with account credit in the end.

If this still did not work you can always buy a gift card from someone else using gp, crypto, ...
