Hi Zazzle Team,

As the international situation escalates, don't you think it would be just the perfect timing to introduce the long awaited option to get our payments directly to our own bank accounts?
I'm pretty sure it would have more positive impact on your valued Creators' lives than changing a button color to a different shade of blue or making the profile picture round instead of square.
I know, Americans think that PayPal is a little piece of heaven, but in most of the other parts of the world, it's just an unnecessary third party with bunch of ridiculously high charges, nonsense limitations and verification requirements, and long processing times.

(No, I'm not russian.)

For what its' worth, Americans have issues with PayPal as well, especially when tax season rolls around. Depending on your state you can get two 1099s, which really messes us up. And paper checks take over 10 days to get places in the US (I can't image how long it take to get overseas).

I remember on the old forums they said they didn't have plans for it, but would pass it on. 

I mentioned this before but this is the only place I work with that doesn't have direct deposit.

And don't get me started if you need to change your address...

Yes please, I still get a paper check to avoid PayPal. But I would much prefer direct deposit. It would also save Zazzle money by not needing to issue physical checks.

Yes, I just put a request on here asking for direct deposit - it was left on for less than a day before the forum was shut down for more comments.  We've been needing direct deposit for a long time.

Someone under my request suggested a reloadable "cash card" which I also think would be an alternate solution if zazzle has legal reasons (as someone else suggested) for not wanting to do direct deposit. 

At this point, I just want to get out of the paypal business.  I refuse to link paypal to my bank account for fear of getting hacked or fined by paypal.  And they don't stand behind their customers when there's an issue - so I'll only use them for a couple businesses.

I posted too @CatsEyeViewGift and my post was merged under yours by the admin.

I never commented under your post.

i don't really know why the admin shut down the comment section too.

I hope they look into this because this ain't funny at all.

We've been asking for this for years right? At this point I'd like to hear from Zazzle why it isn't happening. All we had, all the years we've been asking for it, is silence from Zazzle on this.

Paypal banned me permanently from using their platform 2 days ago, after submitting my documents for verification.

My country Nigeria has been a paypal restricted country right from time.

The not so good part is that the Zazzle bank check option, doesn't work in my country.

So how do they want me to withdraw my cleared first earnings, that is due to be paid tomorrow?

* Direct Bank deposits will be very nice if adopted.

* Platforms like Payoneer offer such.Red Bubble uses payoneer too.

Withdrawing my earnings will be easy through their platform.

* Linking of Bank cards (VISA,MASTERCARD e.t.c) to withdraw earnings is a second option.

I definitely agree with all the above comments. Please add Payoneer because Paypal does not operate in my country and cheque payments are also not a plausible option because the banks charge too much. Please do add Payoneer! 😞
