In most non-American countries, there are instant payment systems. You take out your phone, type in someone's phone/account number, how much, and press send. Money is transferred in seconds.
This has lead to the rise of "instant bitcoin exchanges". You go to the site, type in a bitcoin address and how much. You scan a QR code, press send, and wait 10 minutes. Crucially, you do not need to register an account or set up a Bitcoin wallet.
While Americans are not able to use these services, Europeans can and do use them as an impromptu payment processor. It is as easy as paying by card, but you can send the bitcoins anywhere. (For example, the Nordic Resistance Movement uses them to receive funds, despite banking issues)
The problem is that these services vary by country. If you had a list of these services by country, you could use it as a rudimentary payment processor, but telling people to look it up themselves will be very annoying.
