Why is there no prepaid FAKKU!-wallet?

Hi,
so i can't buy things in the store because i have no credit card (it's pretty expensive where I live and I don't need it anywhere else). I read in some old thread that in the past it was possible to pay with a classical bank transfer (hope that the correct translation).
So is there a reason that is not anymore possible? Why is there no FAKKU!-wallet that you can just charge using your bank account?

Prepaid debt cards and debt bank cards with Visa and Mastercard logos works. I pay for stuff with my bank card all the time. Just needs that credit logo to go thru the credit terminal.
There's people here who live in eastern Europe and asia who do this.

You can get prepaid visa cards and what not that cost maybe 5$ on top of the cost of the credit, or you can fill up as much as you want. Those do the job, though you'll need to contact them to use for online purchases and probably adult purchases

Hm ... after a little internet search i'm sure my debit card is not able to make "credit-card transactions"
And the prepaid cards i found cost 10€ extra + an extra fee for forgain countries and have a monly fee and a card closure fee? not sure how that would work on an empty prepaid card? a little bit shady ...
This sucks (not fakku ofc, the situation, hope some payment service will change its minds about fakku)

I know you can buy Prepaid Visa cards on Amazon, usually they are just a few dollars more. Other than that you should be good to us it from your country because it is pre loaded to U.S currency, right? I've never had to use a prepaid card internationally, but I am assuming it should work for you.

You could go to your bank and ask if they have prepaid cards or the post office. I bought Japanese prepaid cards when I was at comiket.

I guess that makes sense now that I think of it... the only work around would be to know someone in the country you want to buy something in, have them buy a card and then give you the code. I know that is how scammers in other countries do it because Western Union won't let you do a wire transfer to certain places anymore.

Was looking around a local gas station today, could not find a prepaid credit card.
This is way to complicated for just some porn.
Which brings me back to my original question: Why does fakku not accept classic bank transfer?
I mean they kind where you log into your bank account and manually insert a target bank account and an amount of money to send.
I don't see where fakku risk anything as such transfers can't be claimed back (at least where i live, don't know for the USA)
If the purpose field is just a generic number it is also somewhat anonymous.
Edit: well just found out that money tranfer outside of the eu is just as complicated and expensive as getting an credit card. WTF it's the year 2019?

We used to have bank transfer as a payment option years ago that worked like an e-check essentially. However, the banks really didn't like it as they all pretty much look at 18+ content as "high risk". Due to fraud and higher refunds due to users who pay for porn then do chargebacks. Don't quote me on this, but I'm pretty sure with credit cards they don't have the entire burden on their shoulders as the credit card company (visa, mastercard, etc) takes a bunch of the risk. Where as with e-checks or transfer, all the risk falls on the bank since it's pulling money from their own assets.
We'd love to have all kinds of payment methods like PayPal and bank transfer, and AliPay, and all those other nice things. But sadly, when you're a merchant selling adult content, your options become very very limited due to the entire payment industry seeing it as high risk.
