It doesnt appear on initial research that theres a whole lot we can do about by adding additional payment platforms as it isnt paypal specific, its specific to India and affects google wallet and a bunch of other online payment systems.

Currently if the reg isnt completed its still saved in the system so if someone runs into an issue they can contact us and i am sure we can work smtg out. If it becomes an issue in practice we can add a note to the effect on the payment page.

Let's add a note to the payment page to contact me directly if they have a payment problem and cannot use Paypal. If Paypal works in their country, I hope they will use it. I'll need to work on an alternative payment scheme only for country's where Payal is borked.

Just as a note for consideration, might be helpful to look into how this

might work internationally. I know there are problems with PayPal in

India, for example, and a search seemed to show that even for credit

card transactions without an account, the person will have to have an

internationally-enabled credit or debit card.

I'm not claiming to be an expert on any of this, but it might help to

ping some regional folks and see if this will still be feasible for

them. I know a popular alternative in APAC for some groups is

TransferWise, but I don't know how feasible it is to add an integration

or option to use another payment gateway when we're this close to the

CFP window.



Just some material for thought, that some people who attend may not be

able to even use PayPal without an account, so it might be beneficial to

plan for a "worst case" workaround if someone is unable to use PayPal to

pay the registration cost.
