A while back I decided to create a map on UEFN and spent 21 days creating it. The game was scheduled to be released in late spring of this year. But on March 21, I found out that I might not be able to release it in time.
The thing is that I am from Ukraine, and this country is not on the list of countries that support Hyperwallet payments. I would give up trying to find a way out. The only thing that still gives me hope is that I currently live in a country that supports Hyperwallet payments. I’ve written to Epic support a lot about this. I’m still trying to figure out if I can connect Hyperwallet.
Right now, I see several possible developments:
1.I will succeed and the card will see the light of day. I just want to try to sign up after a while.
2. I won’t succeed, but I will be able to join the development team.
3.I will be able to sell these maps to other developers. Or sell individual blocks of work done.
4. And the worst thing that I hope won’t happen is that the project will be shut down and development on UEFN will be forgotten. Which I certainly wouldn’t want.
If anyone has encountered similar problems or knows what to do in such a situation, I’d be glad if you could help me out.
To understand whether Hyperwallet works in your country, you need to go to their website and read the rules and requirements. API Docs - Hyperwallet Program Portal
*Ukraine is not on the list of available countries, although PayPal exists and is well supported. Perhaps you need to first have an active PayPal account, and then write to Hyperwallet support. In the summer of 2018, PayPal bought Hyperwallet.
The only thing that still gives me hope is that I currently live in a country that supports Hyperwallet payments.
You must have a bank account in the country where you are now, if you said that Hyperwallet works there, then everything is fine. You just have to be able to pay your taxes legally and transparently.
I read a lot about people from Ukraine who are now in Poland, they have a local bank account, an account in Hyperwallet and verification (linking a Hyperwallet + Epic Games account) they completed in a couple of days.
