This is not something Casper can work around - LL has banned people in the past for attempting outside payments after that date.
# They click "Buy" on CasperVend, or "Pay" on CasperLet.
# They are presented with payment choices - PayPal, Credit Card or L$. They choose one.
# They are sent to a website, operated by VirWox, where they complete their payment.
# When VirWox notifies us that the payment completed, the money (in L$) is sent to your Second Life avatar..
# The product is delivered (or rental is extended).

No. The money will arrive as Linden Dollars to your second life avatar, as normal.

===Can I disable this?===
 
Yes.
On CasperVend, you can disable the option under the Overview section.
On CasperLet, you can disable the option on the unit configuration.

PayPal, Credit Cards, Etc.


Linden Lab has killed the Linden Dollar Reseller program. "As of August 1, 2015, the Authorized L$ Reseller pilot program will be closed, and the LindeX will be the only authorized place to purchase L$."

Unfortunately, this also included the loss of the VirWox service that was used to provide this capability.

This is not something Casper can work around - LL has banned people in the past for attempting outside payments after that date.
