En primer lugar, las suscripciones creadas antes del 14 de septiembre de 2019 no se ver\u00e1n afectadas en absoluto. Y, en los pagos de la UE a la UE, sus clientes solo tendr\u00e1n que pasar por un aro adicional, pero una vez que lo superen, no deber\u00edan tener que volver a hacerlo para las refacturaciones, y esa es la mayor fuente de ingresos para la mayor\u00eda de los sitios de membres\u00eda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u00bfTiene m\u00e1s preguntas sobre SCA?
