I like the idea; if someone wants to make some money off of customers who are more willing to pay than to make efforts to avoid paying, it's nice to have an easy way to do that.
But whereas "auto-magic" is a good characteristic in software, it's kind of off-putting in financial matters.
As far as the software goes, if it "just works", that's great. When it comes to the money, I don't want to know if it "just works". Within 2 minutes of arriving at the Scarf site, I want to know how much goes in one end, how much comes out the other end, how to set and change the prices, and how much (if any) leaks to the Scarf service. I'd like to know this by the second paragraph of the first page. Having skimmed the site, I still have no idea.
- aviaviavi 7y agoThis is useful feedback, thank you. There's definitely still a lack of documentation, and I'm working to improve that. Currently, Scarf takes fees only to cover the Stripe fees, it doesn't add any additional fees in an effort to encourage people to give it a try. Scarf will eventually take its own transaction fees but that exact amount isn't ironed out yet. I'll add this to the FAQ
