This is "debanking", and its a problem that has plagued sex workers for decades. It isnt right when its targetting sex workers and its not right when its targetting game devs and creators either.

Give paypros and your givt reps your grievances and demand that debanking of adult content stop

Per Reddit: Steam adult developer in the UK is sitting on a USD equivalent of six figures, can’t find a bank to take his money because the developer creates adult games

I develop adult video games on Steam. I can't find a bank that will actually let me withdraw my money from Steam. Can I get some advice?
Game has sold quite well on Steam. I've got almost £90,000 ready to withdraw after Steam's cut + VAT taken off.

However, it's been 2 months now and I can't find ANY bank in the UK who will let me withdraw my money from Steam.

I've been banned/refused/unable to get a business account with:

Wise
Revolut
Monzo
Monese
Chase
Starling
Nationwide
Halifax
Barclays
Lloyds
RBS

It always comes down to, "Where did you get this money from?"

"It's coming from games I sell on Steam."

"Can we see the store page?"

"Sure."

"I'm sorry, we can't do business with you at this time."

It keeps coming down to a commercial decision purely because I make adult content.

What the hell am I supposed to do? I've pretty much exhausted the whole banking system. I just want to be able to be paid for products I've sold.

Hi everyone. I'm Rayner or Ray, a dark artist.

Main genres: Cyberpunk & Sci-Fi. I make original art and fanart (mostly based on my fav cyberpunk game series Deus Ex + my OC's).

linktr.ee/elrayart

Original male character. Long-haired brunette with tattoos on his arms and face, in a black T-shirt and pants, sits with one leg crossed over the other. In one hand he holds a white four-pointed star, with the other he rests on a horizontal surface and looks directly at the viewer with citrine eyes.

art with the original robotic character. In the center of the picture is a humanoid robot with a red body and black carbon fiber augmentations (hands). The android has an oblong head from under which long black carbon nano-cables hang down. The android also has no eyes, his eyes are replaced by a visor with a durable two-sided screen. The android stands in a relaxed pose, leaning one hand on a shabby old container, in the other hand he holds a human skull. He stands in an abandoned laboratory in which only emergency blue-red lighting works.

Original dark art in black and dark-crimson colors. A crying robot head hanging on wires over a vast ocean far in space.

palestinian lesbians once again ✨
{ #art #pride }

Digital art Illustration of two women in a tender embrace in front of a arched window. Both women are Palestinian and wearing elaborately decorated traditional thobes. The woman to the left has a deeper skin tone and a tender smile. Her braided black hair is decorated with silver ornaments towards the bottom.

The woman to the right is wearing a heavy coin headdress that has chains leading down to her waist. Her face has subtle tattoos that match those on her hand.

In the arched window behind them there are palm trees in the distance and foliage that coveres the bottom of the window.

A gentle reminder: If this goal is not met, we will be homeless.

I am an Indigenous person that's been through utter hell in the last two years. I am disabled and queer. Despite being marginalized, I'm the one having to carry the burden of finances. It has been extremely difficult.

Anything helps.

Happy Indigenous People’s Day, I’m a Borikén Taíno creative who is the only income and trying to keep a roof over mine and my partner’s heads.

The last almost two years have been extremely difficult, and many Indigenous people like me live below the poverty line.
