A: Hi,

Great questions — here's how payments work on LaunchMyStore.

Which payment processors can I use?
LaunchMyStore integrates with 40+ payment gateways, so you connect whichever processor fits your market. The major ones include:

Global: Stripe, PayPal, Square, Authorize.Net, GoCardless
Europe: Mollie (Bancontact, iDEAL, etc.), Przelewy24, Viva
Asia-Pacific: Razorpay, Paytm, PhonePe, Cashfree, Instamojo , Payu (India); Omise, 2C2P, Midtrans, Xendit, DOKU, PayMongo, HitPay (SE Asia); Komoju, PayPay, Paidy (Japan); TossPayments, LINE Pay (Korea/Taiwan); VNPay, MoMo, ZaloPay (Vietnam); Antom
Middle East/Africa: Tap, PayTabs, Fawry, Paystack, Flutterwave, Payfast, bKash, SSLCommerz
Americas: Mercado Pago, PagSeguro, EBANX, Conekta, dLocal Go
Crypto & offline: Coinbase, Coingate, CoinPayments, plus Cash on Delivery (COD) and manual/bank-transfer options
Do you have your own processor?
No — and that's deliberate. LaunchMyStore isn't a payment processor itself; instead you connect your own merchant account with the gateway of your choice. That means your payouts, settlement timing and processing fees are handled directly between you and your provider (e.g. Stripe, Mollie, PayPal), and the funds go straight to your account — we never sit in the middle of your money. It also means you keep full ownership of your payment relationship.

Are there restrictions on store types?
LaunchMyStore itself doesn't impose product-category restrictions — you're free to build most standard retail, digital-goods, subscription and print-on-demand stores. The restrictions that do apply come from your chosen payment processor's own acceptable-use rules, not from us. Because you use your own merchant account, you'll need to comply with that provider's terms — most processors restrict or prohibit high-risk categories (e.g. adult content, CBD/cannabis, firearms, certain financial/gambling services). If you're planning a specialised or high-risk niche, the practical step is to pick a gateway that explicitly permits it — and we're happy to help you identify one for your market.

If you let me know your country and what you plan to sell, I can point you to the best-fit gateway(s) for your setup.
