Hide my online store from payment processor
 

I sell certain products that paypal, square and stripe don't like. I sell them in my store based on bigcommerce. I am just wondering how to hide store from paypal, stripe and square if I want to use them. I was thinking about redirection in check out cart to another checkout cart on another site. At some point in the future they will discover redirection, but it will give me some time anyway. Any other ideas how to continue to use paypal, square and stripe

dont know if it works for you,but remove the shopping cart and just send them a store invoice,asking them to reply how they would pay -paypal,cash,money order,wiretransfer.
if they say PAYPAL,then send then a Paypal invoice using your PAYPAL account which is not linked to your store

some sellers would say if you pay with non electronic payments like paypal,you get a 5% discount

I 'm not one to give advice on this topic, but I'm curious that if you have an e-commerce store selling these items, why would you risk using payment processors that don't allow them only to have you in trouble soon or later?

Why not strive for consistency?

I don't think you can hide paypal tracking if you don't collect payment privately.
You can invoice naming that a fee for your professional service.
I had to provide proof of work in each of such actions to paypal.

When etsy buyer wants to pay me by 3 installments,I just go to PAYPAL and send 3 money requests,I dont have any problem,Paypal gets its fee,I always describe the item .

He could also get his own merchant account and accept credit card direct without Paypal,his rate and transaction would be lower,but there could be other fees involved.
But we dont know what he is selling,??
