Valve confirms credit card companies pressured it to delist certain adult games

If Valve limited credit card purchases to PG games, but let customers purchase other games via crypto, then payment processors couldn’t complain about alleged high chargeback rates or association with adult content.

I imagine payment processors wouldn’t love this solution, but at that point they’re just asking for full editorial control, and we should resist.

Not necessary. They could just keep almost everything as-is with normal credit card processors, but for adult stuff, just use the same kind of processors other adult sites use. Those have a lot worse rates from what I hear, but still way more accessible than crypto
