Unless it’s a bigger hassle than I expect I should be able to do it myself, if I’m gonna do it makes sense I should learn how it works and keep control over it. It looks like they take 8% if you have tiers (which everyone has) and 5% if you don’t, and then payment charges, which are 5%+ for small payments and 3% for large ones, so we lose 11% doing this, which pains me. Is this the best we can do?
why not just use a ko-fi or paypal.me link? both claim that they take 0% in fees, and ko-fi even has a recurring payment option if that feature is important to you.
You (or someone) could use a payment processor with a subscription feature, e.g. Stripe, and lose only 2.9+%.
Maybe the easiest/cheapest option would be to just create a new email address and accept direct payments via Zelle/Venmo/PayPal/etc., but some of those don’t support recurring payments.
