How do you deal with payments? (lemmy.ml)

I use payment app that creates interest/financial profile and give me ads (probably) based on my payments for offline.

They give 2% cashback. As a broke student, it's very important.

And for online, i use my debit card. This probably isn't the best way, but privacy.com isnt available here 🙁

How do you deal with your payments?

Ugh. I hate countries that prevent underage people from getting money.

Can't you do an in-person trade of fiat for a coin, or is that illegal where you live?

Have you tried looking for a Bitcoin ATM in your area? The price might be slightly higher than an internet exchange, but you should be able to get some Bitcoins hassle-free.

Thanks for suggesting such interesting site, but i cant find any atm in my country.

It's legally required for cryptocurrency sellers to check customer's identity just like banks.

Buy some gift cards and sell them online, for example on reddit's /r/giftcardexchange

This seems to be only method i can use here

Ah, that's a bummer. The only other thing I can think of are paysafe cards. No ID required and you might be able to get them at one of your local stores, BUT before you get one you should make sure the seller supports them. I've used them to top up my Steam and GOG account, for example.

You can find out if paysafe cards are sold in your vicinity here: https://www.paysafecard.com/en-us/buy/

Other than that, I'm sadly out of ideas. Good luck!

Unfortunately, my country isn't listed there. Thank you for suggesting anyway!
