Interesting price point; it seems to be in a no-mans land where developers who can pay $300 would probably be in a position that they'd want to implement it themselves, yet it might be prohibitively expensive for smaller clients who'd better spend their efforts elsewhere and could use Skeuocard or Stripe.js for free.
Surprised to see the 'one website' clause, as well -- as someone who spends a lot of time working with Stripe integrations, I'd love to buy this once and then plunk it down everywhere. Still, this is a cool effort and I hope to see it succeed!
- hemancuso 13y agoI think it is probably the right move. He has a way better chance of selling 100 licenses for $300 each versus 3000 licenses for $10 each. The smart move would be to actually do some amount of outbound sales to sell licenses. There a ton of random vendors out there doing $100k+/year that have broken credit card flows. Find their checkout page, save it do disk. Spend 10 minutes integrating this verification into their own form, and cold-email the webmaster with the zip'd up demo and already done integration. Let's say it takes 6 hours to 40 of those. If 10% to convert, you're making serious money.
- vbsteven 13y agoIf I was having a successful business that is doing $100k+/year I would think twice about integrating a new form with minified javascript from a cold email into my payment flow. It's definitely not a bad idea to do outbound marketing for this. I just think conversions would be a lot higher if the readable source is also present in the offer.
- hemancuso 13y agoAgreed. I would never pay without the readable source. That's ridiculous.
