That's probably a good approach for random news sites and such, much less so when your internet banking and even online shopping sites require JS on.

If the actual payment is via Paypal I think it usually works without JavaScript in the merchant. And like content, there is no shortage of places to buy stuff.

For banking i use their phone app or else visit them in person. But I use a credit union not a bank as I want to trust the people holding my money.
