Good point, I should set up something permanent. I have only ever done PayPal or bank transfer one-offs. Can I find an overview of the Liberapay, Patreon and so forth to see who they are, what cut they take and why I would pick one over the other?

LiberaPay doesn’t take a cut, they are financed directly by supporters on their own LiberaPay page, and you can donate the amount you choose.
Paypal takes 3-5% I don’t know the exact rate, Patreon takes 10% as from August this year (5% until 2019, currently 8%)

Actually, Stripe as well as PayPal via Liberapay take a fee, still. ;) Those are the providers that Liberapay uses. Still a nice platform - thanks for considering to donate :)

ack thank you for clarifying that! hard to escape payment provider fees, i should actually switch back to the permanent SEPA wire transfers, i switched bank and forgot to restore it ;_;

Thanks! This makes LiveraPay sound pretty neat!
