we need to receive about 50k sms messages per day. We have a deal with a couple MVNO's where they give us wholesale prices on physical sim cards, but putting them into sms gateways takes a ton of time and the devices are expensive

well I also get a bunch of non-critical notifications on pushover, so just doing this would mess with my sleep

Some small-time registrar that I chose back when I didn't know if the business will take off or not. A shop where you can pay with a card. Somebody didn't recognise the charge and sent a complaint to the registrar. Instead of giving us time to investigate/explain/refund, they locked the domain first. Also, that is what chargebacks are for, I want a registrar that at least knows that much.

Thanks. $100-$500 a year for a com I can understand, unfortunately I have 1 domain that needs top-notch support, so IDK if I can justify $10k a year for 1 domain.

Who said something about godaddy? Namecheap looks decent with their 24/7 support, but there are some horror stories here on HN how they mess with the domains too.

Thanks, will try that. Is there an option of blocking by the name of the issuing bank? The bank that I'm trying to block has a lot of BINs that change constantly.

USA. What do you mean by "get an account"?

Stripe support specifically told us they don't provide BINs and they don't make exceptions.

Cause I redirect the customer to Stripe hosted page. I'd really prefer not to go into the whole PCI DSS thing for this. Also, why should I jump through hoops when it's Stripe that chooses to make life harder for me? I'd rather find a better alternative.
