Will Manifold still be accepting payments through Stripe on March 1st?

Question

We've just received a somewhat ominous letter:

[image]Reading through the Restricted Businesses list, it doesn't seem like the purchasing of mana should be prohibited (the closest restrictions look like crypto, or in-game currency, but Manifold looks okay on both counts by virtue of 1. not being crypto, and 2. owning the virtual goods that we're selling). I personally think it's just a administrative snafu and we should be able to work it out.

Possible escalation paths:

Work it out through typical customer support

Escalate through our Stripe contacts (maybe @patio11 can help?)

Switch to Stripe Connect (?)

Switch to another payment processor (Paypal?)

Switch to crypto???
