I'm going to lunch a startup very soon targeted to Tunisian pet owners

Hi everyone, I created the platform petid.tn to be a pet registry and identification website.
Users can created a digital profile for their cat or dog and link it to a pet tag containing either a QR code or an NFC ship. When someone scans the tag with their phone the owner instantly receives a notification on their phone, and if their pet is lost they can mark it as lost in the app it will broadcast an alert to nearby users in a 10km radius and if someone finds the lost pet he will have access to the owners contacts and can share his location to the owner with just the click of a button.
in the digital profile you can add details like pet name,age,gender,breed and medical information and also upload up to 3 photos and link it to 4 types of contacts, phone, email ,facebook ,instagram.
I plan on producing my first batch of smart pet tags this month they will be printed on 3mm pexiglass with an epoxy resin coating and they attach to the collar with a keychain ring, the current version for now only has QR code no NFC and had the ID written on the back as a fallback.
I invite you to take a look at the website tell me what's your favorite design and how much you are willing to pay for one these tags.
for the pricing model I plan on making a onetime payment included with the physical tag.
don't mind the video I will redo it once I pay for a professionally made marketing campaign.
I would really be glad to hear some genuine feed backs.

Meta for Developers account registration SMS OTP not reaching my phone

I need to register a Meta developper account so that I can integrate Meta Oauth 2.0 in a project but, I've been stuck for 2 days in the account registration part.
you first have to sign in with your facebook account then you have toa do an account verification, they lock you into a single option "verify with phone number" where they send you a 6-digits verification code via SMS.
In my case this SMS never reaches me, I even tried with 2 other different phone number.
there is also the option to verify an account with a payment method but I only own a Tunisian credit card and it is not valid payment method.

▲ 2 r/qrcode

I'm currently working on a project where I have to focus on QR code optimization.
basically I want to 3d print custom cats and dogs tags with embedded QR code to link them to a profile page to help with identifying lost pets.
I already brought a short domain name and I'm using 5 characters long alphanumeric UID, that's 60 million combinations.
the URL has a fixed length of 22 char and I'm using alphanumeric encoding to save even more space. this helps maximize readability since we are shrinking it to fit in a pet tag.
I'm currently stuck with 2 choices, should I generate the QR code as version 1 ECC L or version 2 ECC Q

max length of the alphanumeric string for each setting

version 1 ECC L:
has a grid size of (21*21) and an error correction of 7%

version 2 ECC Q:
has a grid size of (25*25) and error correction of 25%

basically this is a trade off between +19% block size vs +18% error correction.

the bigger the block size the easier the qr code is to print and detect when shrunk but higher error correction allow you to scan a partially damaged or dirty qr code.

I could also sacrifice the the https:// reduce the length to 14 and use version 1 ECC Q but heard that it was not recommended.
which one is the best settings for smartphone readability and 3d printing at this small scale for pet tags ?
I'm looking for something that would work with most 3d printers.

Question for developers / entrepreneurs here.
I want to start developing SAAS projects, but I'm totally lost at the monetization part.
I want to provide the user with an easy way to pay for a subscription without leaving the website and giving him the freedom to pay however he wants (credit card, PayPal,crypto, etc.).

(relying on p2p like in freelancing is impractical )
How should I receive the final settlement ? foreign currency into a bank account or stablecoin crypto ?
what are services I can integrate into my project ?
and what are the steps to setup everything as someone living in Tunisia ?

I'm a software engineering student living in Tunisia a country that have strict foreign exchange rules and crypto is a legally grey area.

I want to find a way to get paid from micro SAAS subscriptions and store the money directly in a non custodial wallet.

for crypto to crypto I don't have any issue but I have a problem with fiat to crypto payment from user.

I going through this hassle because I don't want to restrict them to crypto only which could discourage some of them from paying.

I want to give them the convenience of paying with whatever they want while I receive USDT.

currently I have 2 ideas:

1 - having a payment gateway that allows the user to pay however they want convert it to USDT and sent it to my wallet

2 - having an embedded crypto purchase widget inside the site with an abstract ui/ux allowing the user to simply buy crypto on the spot without leaving the site and treat me as the recipient wallet.

I cannot under any circumstances hand over any form of Tunisian Identification or banking details, I'm not taking that risk.

The only somewhat valid option I found is mtpelerin.com

are there any other options ? like self-hosted ones ?

I live in a Tunisia a country that have strict foreign exchange rules and crypto is a legally grey area.
I 'm looking for a way to monetize micro SAAS projects. I need a payment gateway that allow the user to pay either in fiat or crypto (for his convenience) and the amount payed get's converted to USDT on my non-custodial wallet.
The current payment gateways I found require me to input a form of Identification for KYC.
I’m worried that by providing this information, my transaction through that gateway could become visible to the government..
I'm wondering if my concerns are genuine and if there is service that matches my needs
