    It is if PayPal aren't supporting credit cards on your store. But it also depends on your target market. In some markets not accepting bitcoin will be a tragedy, in others the buyers will be like "bit... what?"

    At the moment credit cards are the major method of payment, if you don't accept them through some mechanism then, yes, you have a problem.

    PayPal in itself is not bad, but yes it is good if you can give buyers different payment options.

    I am not saying that it will be bad for your business but somehow it will affect your sales .Options should be there for customers because many people are there in the market who don’t want to pay through any other channel like paypal etc.

    Very true. Provide as many different modes of payment as possible. Not all people will use PayPal. Not all people have or will use credit card. Different modes of payment means more ways for people to buy, and more opportunities for earning.

    I agree with all of you, but I would still like to say that form my experience with different kinds of online stores, you won't lose too much business by only accepting paypal. Sure, there are those who prefer cc payments or something else, but 90% will still pay with paypal.

    I recently went through the trouble of arranging a way to accept paypal+cc+local bank transfers+skrill+bitcoin.. and guess what? So far all sales have been with paypal.

    It depends on your business, however if you are planning to expand I would suggest g2a pay! many local payments options + credit cards, also their support is the best!

    It's always good to offer options. I know some people who refuse to use PayPal. Although as stated that is rare. PayPal has been known to suddenly freeze accounts too. If that happens and you don't have something else set up your business is at a standstill until you do set alternatives up.

    There are also options that are similar to PayPal. Amazon Pay comes to mind.
