Alternative Payment Methods for Beat Sales Payouts Merged

The current PayPal-only payout system is highly disadvantageous for music producers for several reasons:

• PayPal charges substantial transaction fees on every beat sale

• PayPal forces currency conversion at their own unfavorable exchange rates

• Producers lose a significant portion of their earnings just on fees and currency conversion

Many producers across various Reddit forums and social media platforms frequently express their frustration with BeatStars' PayPal-only payout system. This limitation has actually caused numerous talented producers to abandon the platform entirely. The widespread dislike of PayPal's policies and fees is a common theme in producer communities.I propose implementing direct bank transfer options, including modern payment services like Wise or Revolut. This would:

• Significantly reduce transaction costs

• Allow producers to choose when and how to convert their currencies

• Provide a faster and more transparent payout process

This change would greatly improve the experience for music producers using the BeatStars platform and allow them to retain more of their hard-earned money. Adding alternative payment methods could also attract back many producers who left the platform due to PayPal issues, ultimately strengthening the BeatStars community and marketplace.
