Top-up services are a good business, but try to still go with Web3.
Don’t connect to any information from Web2.

Many people should know that there used to be a business on Taobao: top-up services.
These included game prepaid cards, mobile phone airtime, and App Store.
But now there are fewer and fewer.
Airtime can be done at 80% of the face value, and games at 50%.
Behind that, in reality, is an entire money-laundering chain.
If you participate in “top-ups,” regardless of whether you know or not, what you’re actually participating in is money laundering.
Of course, in historical cases where people were caught, the charges they’re usually given are: illegally obtaining computer information data.
Whether it’s game credits or airtime, or now all kinds of memberships—on the surface, they look like “loss-making” businesses.
But in essence, it’s discount selling “money.”
The simplest and most brutal example is the “score-running” scheme a few years ago.
You collect 100,000, then transfer 80,000 to someone else—you’ve gained 20,000 just for that.
It only required using your Alipay or bank account for it.
