Lopsii··on Ask HN: What are you working on? (April 2025)
I have been working with a small team on a platform that allows luxury brokers to do due diligence on clients, ownership transfer and receive/issue payment all in one platform. We are pretty much merging the luxury retail market with banking.

Brokers (cars, planes, houses, boats, watches, etc) never have to worry about chargebacks, they get instant payment, free deposits and payment (compared to payment processors and marketplaces charging 2-10% per transaction).

We are currently onboarding luxury buyers, brokers, and brands you can check us out and apply to be part of the ecosystem. https://nezzapp.com

Lopsii··on Payment processors shouldn't be able to charge through an expired card
I did reach out to the bank. My issues is they didn't give me the option to opt into this. I should have a choice! Their rep said even the folks at the bank location can't uncheck the box that opts me out of it.

The reality is I won't dislike it if I knew about it beforehand but I didnt.

They went on to list a lengthy process for what I should do just so it doesn't happen in the future. Not ideal.

Lopsii··on Show HN: We Built payment faster and cheaper than via any crypto
great point. Banks operate on the fednow rail. that's one provided by the government. They are fix rates and very low
Lopsii··on Show HN: We Built payment faster and cheaper than via any crypto
We provide a banking platform with card, insurance and payments (just like your regular everyday bank account), our payment is built on real time rails that most banks have access to. What people don't know is that almost all banks can do this but don't provide the service for everyone.

Real time rails allow up to $10M in payments for almost zero dollars but banks add their premiums.

Does that answer your question?

Lopsii··on Ask HN: Why are banks charging so many fees for accounts and cards?
lol dude or dudette! you clicked on the bio - I never said you should. I'll educate you, they make more money from low-level people than luxury status people or people with more money in their bank accounts. The rich benefit from the payments the average make on these accounts.
Lopsii··on Ask HN: Why are banks charging so many fees for accounts and cards?
this is true. makes you question why they do it for them and not for everybody
Lopsii··on Ask HN: Why are banks charging so many fees for accounts and cards?
as they should. i find it boils down to - because they can. I'm not sure if this post may have repercussions but we'll see.
Lopsii··on Ask HN: Why are banks charging so many fees for accounts and cards?
