Not exactly.
Currently, PayPal is Sketchfab’s only payment processor. PayPal has made it possible to purchase a Sketchfab membership via USD with a credit or debit card. You can see this option through the Sketchfab Plans page.
Do you accept other payment methods besides PayPal?

I can't believe that I just had to go through that hideous, intrusive PayPal form. Of course, I gave all the wrong information. I seriously hope you're planning on providing your customers with a direct payment system that doesn't include effin' PayPal asking me for my government ID number an phone number. Yeesh.
I was able to buy a model via Paypal today, but not to sunscribe to an annuel plan.
I hate to be forced to use Paypal... so i give up and will find an other website.
Gave up trying to buy something, forcing PayPal on us is too much.
Paypal is not used in my country. You cannot transfer money to it. Why aren't you using payoneer?
Please offer another payment transaction processor option. Paypal sucks!
I give up.
I get the same error-message all the time. Haven't been able to buy anything on sketchfab yet.
The paypal-support told me it could only be an error of sketchfab itself and everything is perfectly fine with my account.
Please fix this.
Same error for me, I cannot buy anything because of this Paypal error message. :(
Ridiculous. I left paypal ages ago because of their extortionate fees and horrible customer support. Why would you force your uses to pay with it?
It is very bad I can not buy any model because of paypal. It is not available in my country.You should add alternative payment.
We need another payment option definitely. Paypal doesnt work
non of my colleges can buy any models
Please add!!!!))
I could buy with credit card without paypal account with paypal guest payment form. But now
it want me to register paypal. Why? It forces me to create a paypal account but I dont want to.
Paypal says to log in or pay with card, I chose paying with card, then it asks me to create an account anyway.
PayPal is owned by anti-Democratic, anti-American, subversive, monopoly capitalists. They greedily leverage their internet payment system in order to obtain a monopoly control over internet commerce, and then they use that control to censor, de-platform, seize the capitol of and refuse service to legitimate internet businesses and to credit card-users of those customers with whom they have religious and political disagreements. PayPal is an evil entity, similar to a malignant cancer. And we should all vote with our money by refusing to do any business with any company that uses PayPal to the exclusion of other legitimate credit card processing methods.
There are a lot of models that I would like to buy on the SketchFab site, but I refuse to use PayPal to buy them.

yall need another payment method other than paypal.
people are using "charge backs" to steal models from our store's and paypal even with evidence, showing that people have models in their collections, receipts and sale's and their profile's does nothing in the slightest to help keep your money from your work being sold on here.
this has happened to me 6 time's since i started a store on here and honestly, with all the talk of "protecting" us.
when asking for said help, it seems there is no true resolve when using paypal as your only method of selling on here.
it's bad enough ripper's are about, but now charge backs and us the artists "disputing" these charge backs are also fined a "dispute fee" of 15$ dollars on top of the theft of our model is honestly disheartening.
I tried to make a purchase today, my bank card is a UK one, but I'm in Thailand and only have a Thai phone number, so couldn't receive a security code as PayPal has an automated phone number field which is linked to the card issuing country! Additionally, PayPal has been discontinued in Thailand. By using PayPal your business is effectively stopping artists from earning through your website. I went elsewhere for the purchase.
There are several models I intend to buy, but I faced the same issue that Paypal is not working. If you do not provide any other payment method, you are losing customers on a daily basis.
Please, add something like Payoneer and Wire Transfer. PayPal is not very comfortable for many users now.
I'm leaving Pay Pal because of their monstrous terms of service they accidentally released. Even though they walked it back because of backlash, I'm confident it will make it's way back in some form or another. Please provide a different method or you will risk losing another customer. I'm very happy with your services. I cannot support Pay Pal.
Getting the same issue. I'm in the U.S. and I cant make a payment.
You are not a site that is too small to offer a payment method other than payoneer, why is this stubbornness?
I'm a seller here on Sketchfab. PayPal has permanently suspended my account with no reason given. Unfortunately since there are no other payment methods I'm forced to close down my store with Sketchfab.
I cannot and will not support PayPal... I would really like to use this site for buying and selling products, but I will not support PayPal anymore and it has reached the point that this is no longer something I am willing to be flexible over. Closed my account there too and thats the end of it. There are a lot of users seeking for different payment options and bank card etc. Please stop the mandatory PayPal enforcing, there are many of us not using your services for this reason. Thank You.
lol. Paypal ceased its operations in Turkey in 2016. Now I can't buy anything from sketchfab, even if I want to. This is nonsense. I hope in the future you will switch to a system where we can shop directly with our credit card.
I think it is not a very difficult process to deal with different payment systems, there are at least 5 different payment systems from the newly opened model sales sites, but this place has not even offered a second option for 10 years, it's very funny :D
