Has anyone had experience with PayRam or Paymegate?
I came across a company I’m researching that uses these third-party checkout processors. I’m not asking about buying/selling anything here. I’m just trying to understand whether others have encountered these processors and what their experience was.
Mainly interested in general security and legitimacy. Did the checkout process seem normal? Any issues with card security or unexpected charges afterward?
If you’ve used either platform before, I’d appreciate hearing your experience.

Yesterday the headlines were that Trump wanted to impose a 20% fee on cargo moving through the Strait of Hormuz. Today the headlines are that nobody should be able to charge a fee to pass through it. Within 24 hours, both positions became major news stories.

At this point, I think the bigger story isn't even Trump. It's the media.

Every provocative statement gets wall-to-wall coverage before anyone asks whether it will still be true tomorrow. The outrage becomes the story, then it's immediately replaced by the next outrage. Meanwhile, questions about consistency, accountability, and conflicts of interest seem to get far less sustained attention.

It feels like the media has become an amplifier for whatever Trump says that day. Whether people support him or oppose him, that constant attention seems to be exactly what keeps him dominating the conversation.

The cycle only continues because everyone keeps feeding it.
