Q: When will you allow your customers to pay for AppSumo Plus with PayPal?
Hi There,
You have been asked PayPal payment for AppSumo Plus subscription since years now, and I don’t really understand why a website like AppSumo, really open to the world, don’t want to open this payment option - when many other websites allow PayPal for yearly or monthly subscriptions.
Because we can already pay with PayPal any products, and technically it’s not a problem now for any CMS, I suppose it’s about money?
If no, can you tell me why, please?
Just to let you understand…
Many people with other currencies have to pay bank fees when they pay in Dollars (e.g. Euros -> Dollars) - each time - every year in your case.
So please, consider to open the PayPal Subscription Payment, or you can also authorize people to pay in other currencies (e.g. Euro) ;)
Regards

Nov 21, 2024A: Hi there! Thanks so much for this feedback. We hear you, and we're looking into what other options we may be able to provide for Plus in the future.
AppSumo Plus is a subscription-based membership and, because subscriptions are hosted in our merchant processor, only a credit/debit card can be used to complete the membership purchase at this time.
Thank you for providing the "why" – that's super helpful for us as we're evaluating solutions.
I really appreciate this feedback!
Dear Katie,
Thank you for your explanations! :)
Many people like me visit your website because we believe many new solutions can enhance our work and profits at times, often replacing older tools and solutions with new ones we find on AppSumo.
Perhaps it’s time for AppSumo to change its "merchant processor", just as we do when a tool does not keep up with our clients?
Just a thought! ;)
I hear you and agree. We're discussing as a team and are always looking for ways to improve Plus for our members, so I really appreciate you reaching out!
