Is it just me or pg's twitter account is suspended now?

None of those customers were creditors. The fraud was precisely turning them into creditors and using the deposit for gambling and corruption.

I don't know about AU banks but in India, most big banks allow you to convert at 0.3-0.4% + FIRA and interbank charge which is around $10. Not great but it's better than stripe for bigger amount.

You can also get a multi currency bank account. There are some options available to Indians which provide US based ACH and IBAN. Be careful with FEMA compliance.

Does stripe restrict payout currency to INR in India?

Can you add a bank account which can handle alternative currency payout and let your bank handle do conversion?

> Is it worth trying DP with a DP to USB-C adapter?

No. I meant if you have a DP to USB type C cable, you may switch to see if issue resolved.

Try plugging it in and out a few times (yes, it worked for me when it went back to not recognizing).

I have the same mac but a different 4K monitor. Sadly, I don't know any other solution.

Macbook display and scaling handling on external monitors is one of the worst I have experienced by a long margin so know you are not alone.

I wiped it clean during installation so no previous settings.

The HDPI icon pop ups automatically on ventura in display settings.

I would also change the cable and try a different one if that doesn't work. Sometimes the DP cable end up causing issues with monitor recognition.

Upgrading to Ventura and resetting resolved the issue for me. I had previously been using the beta version due to this issue. The better display app did not resolve the issue for me, and there are other known issues with external monitors on Ventura that you may encounter.

They are. Most countries impose additional regulatory compliance on businesses which deal with cash making it costly to handle.

In India, you can pick any payment gateway for UPI. They are easily replaceable.

No payment gateway in India charges for UPI transaction too. So if similar payment system is incorporated in US, I won't expect stripe to be able to charge for it.

The only major functionality these payment gateway provide is checking if transaction went through.

They are wrappers on top of bank APIs such as federal bank.

Anyone can generate a QR code for their payment ID and request payment without needing a gateway but it's manual. Most street vendors confirm payments manually since it happens in person.

Additionally, we have other standardized framework for requesting account information from banks such as RBI account aggregator framework. So you don't need something like plaid to fetch bank statements from all your bank accounts.

Recurring payments are also setup on the bank end as a mandate.

Yes, you will end up using an off the shelf solution but you are not at the mercy of them if you accept UPI only.

Fed now instant payments will go live in US next year. EU has similar cross country solution in work. Majority of Asia already switched or in the phase.

In India, most purchases go through UPI already which is p2p without a middleman.

It's tough time to be in payments and will only get worse as many custom integration with lending companies break down due to huge losses.
