How to sell a game when my country is not supported by PayPal?
Hi,
I was looking at PayPal, and when trying to register there I got a message that my country (Yugoslavia) is not supported by their service. My game is far from finished, but I would like to know ahead how should I manage the distribution. It will most likely be sold through the Internet, using credit cards, which means I have to find some firm who is doing online money transfers in Eastern Europe also.
If there are no firms like that, then are there other options? There are a couple of international banks in my country, such as the Reiffeisen Bank from Austria, and perhaps I can open an account there?
Waiting for your advice,
I have just received a wire transfer from RegNow, and there are a lot of other similar companies out there. I expect any bank around you can accept wire transfers, but you should first check this.
Alternatively you can give me your game and I will sell it for you here! :)
Well the pricing at RegNow seems ok, though I'm not sure how am I supposed to pay their one-time registration fee when I have no access to international credit cards, which again gets us back to my primary problem.
The solution will probably be something like superdeveloper said. I have a friend in Belgium who might oppen the account for me, and then send the money through a bank. Though I'll have to check out if RegNow, after I pay them their one-time registration fee, will support my country.

With all due respect to your native country, but that country doesn't exist anymore. These days it is called Serbia and Montenegro(it changed in March 2002). But I think it is possible for you to use a nearby country instead. I haven't read the regulations of PayPal, but I imagine it doesn't matter much as long as you are able to draw money where it is convenient for you.
No no no no! :)

Well, you can try Plimus. They don't require a registration, so you don't need a credit/debit card (but you'll find a lot of other things awkward without one - like registering a dot com domain and so on)
