* Can set payment page to stripe’s own site & page and back after completing transaction to let buyers know it is via them

* IIRC a survey I read said 50% of people do not buy if their preferred payment option is not available

* The large amount of money that would come in via Paypal would easily pay for a few hundred bucks annually for an online accountant to take care of additional paypal accounting, afraid of

* Maybe not sliding but can have multiple payment options in Paypal, as same product or as separate products, eg: $15 30 45 60 90 or even more options

* I do not think it is necessary to hold back Mac/Win desktop versions (coded as one project) in their competitive arena because of wanting universality of features on apps/Linux/web versions. Many wares have diff features on diff platforms

* Like the Paypal accounting, with additional improved mac/win income, parts of coding for other platforms can be contracted out in parts with NDA etc

Probably can find generic NDA forms sp. for programming sector online for free, it is quite routine

* Every improvement creates income which lets one do more improvements and features

A good desktop version for mac/win will generate business for online & other platforms too.

- Holding back the two main desktop versions because of all or a few other devices’ versions or
- Not delegating anything even Paypal accounting

Means:

> Major loss of revenue
> Loss of progress in versions and
> I am glad some are over the moon with the product despite no progress. But there is a Real Possibility that after some competitor(s) entering this niche area, the same minority of users full of praise, will be the first to migrate as history teaches.

Just some ideas.

Bon chance.
