We’re an incredibly international marketplace with buyers from almost every country in the world. Each country has a unique set of popular payment methods, so merely accepting just PayPal is not enough to cater towards all potential buyers.
The solution to this problem is Tebex Checkout which is a service that Tebex has provided to Minecraft server owners, including Hypixel, for many years. Tebex has their own accounts with essentially every payment gateway possible and allows for creators to have their money sent to Tebex’s account. These funds are represented and accessible to server owners and creators through Tebex Wallet, and can be withdrawn from there.
This system of having Tebex accept payments on your behalf has many advantages including full chargeback protection and sales tax compliance, which you can read about here:
Buyers are able to pay for resources through any of the following payment gateways:
Credit/debit cards, PayPal, Pix, Alipay, Banco Do Brasil, Bancontact, Belfius Direct Net, Boleto Bancario, Bradesco, Efecty, EPS, Giropay, iDeal, Itau, KBC/CBC, MACH, Mercado Pago, Mercado Pago (MX), Multicaja, Nequi, OXXO, PagoEfectivo, PagoFacil, PayMaya Wallet, PicPay, Przelewy24, PSE, RapiPago, Sencillito, SEPA Bank Transfer, Servipag, SOFORT Banking, SPEI Bank Transfers, Trustly, MWINT, ViaBaloto, WebPay, & more added regularly.
Note that the list above does not include every gateway that Tebex offers by default. We’ve intentionally disabled some of the most expensive gateways such as paysafecard and Razer Gold Wallet as their fees are far above 10% in most cases and simply too expensive to be acceptable.
Another benefit to selling through BuiltByBit is that the gateway fees paid with us are considerably less than you are able to receive by signing up to the gateways directly due to the massive payment volume. Read more about our reduced gateway fees: Payment Fees
Cryptocurrency payments are the only payment method that aren’t currently available. We are investigating adding cryptocurrency support in the future with Tebex.
You’ll automatically receive payments from all of the gateways listed above without needing to register and manage your own accounts on each platform. Revenue will be sent to your Tebex Wallet, which you can then withdraw to your bank account or PayPal.
This means that if PayPal (or one of the other gateways) is unavailable in your country, or you have a poor relationship with them, you are still able to receive payments and withdraw to your bank.
