> one thing that I like about crypto is there are no charge backs.

Most consumers probably don't like that at all, though.

I view it as paying by cash, so the same type of pitfalls exist. I'm not really pushing crypto as the best payment method, just giving the OP possible alternative payment methods they could use. There is a learning curve to using crypto, which I believe reduces the potential of consumers not fully understating the risk of sending payments. Consumers who want the protections should use a credit card to get those.

Coinbase could freeze your ability to process or receive your payments for a dozen random reasons too. False sense of security there, you need self custody.

Have open source self custody merchant tools improves?

Brick and mortar gone online and Web 2.0 services seem pretty left behind for accepting crypto payment. And Web 3’s crypto natives don't care or need purchasing flows.
