Money Left on the Table

Too many of the games that allow you to name your own price only allow you to make a contribution through PayPal. Many people, like myself, do not use PayPal so we are not allowed to lend our support. As a result, you are leaving money on the table for these developers. You should figure out a solution to this problem

okay but literally no one asked

Most people won't ask to pay for something they can get free. However, those who work hard to develop these games should be paid for their fine work. Maybe I grew up during different times when personal values were still important.

You’re so funny.

I had quite the opposite problem... I tried to use Paypal balance for supporting Bundle for Ukraine initiative, which was the only method I unfortunately had available, just to discover it's not accepted here, different than GOG, Ubisoft, EA/Origin, to name a few. The offer will expire, I'll miss some incredible indie games, the money is right there on the virtual table...

You can pay with a debit/credit card as well...

Yes, I'm aware of that, Arekku, thanks for popping in. Due to the severity of the crisis we're facing in, I'm exclusively making my game and other digital goods' purchases with money I earned via Paypal for the time being. Which is particular hard, when it comes to stuff like that. But since there are other people involved, I'll have to stick with that.
