There's a ticket to raise the minimum charge from $0.50 to $10 or so: https://github.com/whit537/www.gittip.com/issues/167 I've added some +1's there.

I called WePay and talked to a sales rep. The "API side" was busy so he said they'd get back to me, but I never heard from them: https://github.com/whit537/www.gittip.com/issues/69 By contrast, Balanced stepped forward and contributed the

Thanks. :-) Note that we already raised the rates significantly (max used to be $1.28 instead of $24), and I'm personally looking for $2,000 per week. So I don't think Gittip understates the value of good programmers. Here's the thinking be

Short answer: No. Long answer: Trying to figure out the best way to do that. See: https://github.com/whit537/www.gittip.com/issues/27

I don't believe anything is stopping you from using Flattr. I don't believe you are stopped from putting Flattr on your home page. I don't have enough data to say whether you're going to get more money from Gittip over Flattr. I don't have

The value for donors is "the feeling of participation in someone else's story" (quote from Kiva co-founder Jessica Jackley[0]). It's up to recipients to tell a compelling story with their life. That's what's going to get money into the syst

Flattr is for content. Gittip is for people. Flattr is optimized for making tippers feel good. Gittip is optimized for making tippees a living. Flattr takes a 10% cut. Gittip is drinking its own whiskey.

I'm not opposed to accepting bitcoin if it's transparent as you describe. As krasin mentions the recurring thing is a sticking point. Here's the ticket: https://github.com/whit537/www.gittip.com/issues/14

Can I ask your username? Also, I'm back online and logging. Any chance you'd be willing to trigger the error again?

You saw this? http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4233482 I guess GitHub tried to integrate with Pledgie years ago: https://github.com/blog/57-getting-paid-the-open-source-way/ Maybe they'll be willing to try again with Gittip? :-)
