 Since we launched fiat payments again after 2 years of not being able to accept fiat: we received €11k in orders in one month. After evaluating the cost of the payments (€351,54) we decided to put the cost of the fiat payments including the additional administrative work (couple of hours per month) plus the risk of the chargebacks on the fiat paying customers. People should also understand that these payment providers horde and sell your data. When you look at PayPal you can even automatically generate the shipping labels, but before being able to do that you have to accept the shipping company hoarding all data and being able to use and sell it too… We are not inputting shipping data manually for nothing. When people use fiat rails they should be aware. We’ve now added the following text and extra charge to fiat payments: 
“Use bitcoin to avoid fiat fees and preserve privacy, bitcoin does not share and use your data” https://image.nostr.build/5b0ec8d9bfb9e4c926c0838f78e02caf45c9618640334178b2633c846382024f.jpg

 Yes on chain can be chosen, but most people prefer lightning.
