Issue is itunes takes a crazy amount as their cut, 30%

 

Andrew could raise the prices of each donation so that he would recieve the same amount even after Apple takes their cut. This though would probably still be a tricky process. I'm feeling pretty neutral about this idea.

 

This was suggested fairly recently, too.

1+ in general. Not sure about the tax still.

 

If Andrew were to just raise the price of each donation while using this app. He would get more money. I have like $100+ in iTunes gift cards. I don't use iTunes, i just download my music.

 

Both apple and google take 30% from in-app purchases. So I doubt this will happen.

 

Would it work for Andrew to just raise the donation feature prices by 60%?

 

I would easily spend over $600 if it was through Itunes. It is so much easier for me to use Itunes than Paypal +1

 

He could do that at least on just Itunes

 

Also forgot to mention that only android has an sdk for paypal, iOS does not.
Meaning, andrew would need a developer account with apple, and use THEIR programs instead of paypal.

This means andrew would have to look at two places instead of 1 when processing donations.
This is messy.

 

With that info i dont think its worth it. Unless he would say do this once a week? Not everyday 2 days.

Also can you please elaborate on the need of a developer. What would the process for that be?

 

We just ask the customer for more money. If it takes more out. The customer simply chooses if they want to buy it or not.
