Early traction, but blocked by payments and funding. What would you do?
Hey PH fam I launched Lumoar (B2B SaaS startup) three weeks ago and we have already seen over 100 users sign up and lots of positive feedback. It s clear there is a demand and I feel there s potential in this. But now I have hit a wall. Because of my country, international payment platforms like Stripe or PayPal don t provide API access so I can t monetize or implement a paid plan right now. I ve talked to some investors, but they expect initial capital or revenue before they d consider funding. Bootstrapping got me this far, but moving forward without monetization or investment is getting really difficult. If you ve dealt with something like this (or just have thoughts), I d love to hear: What would you do in this situation? Any creative approaches, funding workarounds, or even alternative payment methods I should look into? Appreciate any advice
