I’m sorry that we don’t have Western Union as a payment option. However we do support credit cards, simply go to our Sign Up page, make the purchase, choose Paypal or Moneybookers (Skrill) as payment option, then proceed to checkout. If you’re unable to use Paypal for some reason, just go with Moneybookers as it supports over 200 countries.

I don’t have a credit card with me right now. I only have a prepaid visa gift card or the option of western union. I am really stuck 🙁

Please just go ahead and use your prepaid visa gift card for the purchase as both visa card and credit card are eligible for our Paypal / Moneybookers payment system.

First of all, thank you very much for sticking with me on this issue.

Something seems to be overwhelmingly misunderstood by me which I would like to explain. As suggested several times in this thread to use Paypal/Moneybookers, I have official versions from both the services that they DO NOT except prepaid gift cards. I have accounts with Paypal as well as MoneyBookers (Now skrill — God only knows what does it mean), but can attach with them neither any prepaid gift cards, nor my debit card and certainly not my bank account because I come from the UAE. That brings me back to square one, as far as the whole discussion in this thread is concerned.

I am sure Joomlart will look into the matter of why it should keep its payment options to a bare minimum of one-and-half services (Skrill? who knows about it?) and does not use 3rd party services for processing credit/gift cards for payment.

Western Union is an awesome service for worldwide payments without any undue processing procedures at both ends. You will receive your payment instantly without paying a ****. I seriously wonder why it does not figure in your list of option.

Back to my particular case, please advise what should I do now?

Hi Maxal,

The location-restricted issue by payment gateway is beyond our control. Please consider e-check service which is a payment that you make directly from your bank account. Details could be found https://www.paypal.com/webapps/helpcenter/article/?solutionId=13054&m=SRE

Alternatively, It is fine for us if you pay via bank wire or Western Union. If you go with this option, let me know, I will send instruction to your personal email.

New year 2014 is coming, I wish you and your family all the best!

Feel free to reply back to me if i can be of any assistance.
