PayPal Freezes Game Developer’s Funds Over Adult Content
A Steam game developer has found himself in a difficult situation as PayPal has frozen all of his funds, totaling over 92,000 euros, due to allegations of violating the platform’s terms of service. The developer, based in the UK, is now seeking help on Reddit to navigate this legal issue.
PayPal’s Controversial Stance
Despite the developer’s claims that his adult-oriented game was produced legally and in compliance with UK laws, PayPal is adamant about not transferring the money earned from its sales. The company cites its terms of service, which prohibit transactions related to certain sexual orientation materials and services, as the reason behind their decision.
Developer Seeks Resolution
With past issues with payment processors already under his belt, the developer now faces the additional challenge of potential tax problems. He is actively seeking assistance to resolve the situation with PayPal and gain access to the funds that are rightfully his.
