I already have a seedbox, but I am realizing I paid for it with my credit card (dumb) even though I used a fake name and contact info. I am going to change providers and migrate my data, but I now need to actually pay for it securely (piracy in my country is only legal if only downloading) since I not only plan to seed to a private tracker and others but also would like to buy a larger box to help out with anna's archive torrents. How do you all pay for your usenet / seedboxes?

I understand if crypto is recommended, but I dislike using it due to high overhead costs and general skepticism, so I would love some other options or providers that offer them (current provider only has crypto, stripe and PayPal).

Paysafecard is perhaps an option to you. It's like a giftcard in that you buy it in cash and receive a code.

It's recommended to wear a fake moustache when buying the card, and make sure the color matches your actual hair color otherwise it's an immediate giveaway!

I wasn't even aware of paysafecard. Wow. Thanks for this info!
