What's a fair price for a budget-friendly hosted version? Lower upfront cost, or maybe a revenue share? We've aimed at enterprise deals for the paid edition, keeping the open-source version widely accessible. Keen to hear your thoughts on adjusting our pricing.

100$/mo? I would like to be able to build out an idea in a week or two and see if it goes anywhere. Making my own metered billing system to go with it would be an enormous project.

If it does go places, I'm happy to pay the big fees when it gets big.

IMHO this is why Stripe is so successful - picking up the customers while they're small. I'm with Stripe because Adyen et. al wouldn't talk to me at $100/mo but Stripe would, and many years later I'm still with Stripe running a large multiple of that through them (ok, via Paddle now..)

Can i ask why, in 2024, basic internet payment infrastructure isn't a commoditized resource shared across FANG/governments/ISP/banks? Why Does it have to be this way? Why must it be so convoluted for the merchants themselves? Why must it cost so much money just to be able to accept payments? Don't we all love payments? Don't transactions make the world go round? Are we already paying taxes on literally everything? Wouldn't it be in everyone's best interest is to make the simple act of doing business be as simple, frictionless, and barrierless as possible?
