I do see your point but in this case _everyone_ pays the 5% even though the payout only happens once per project and the payment also only happens once per person donating.

It might be that it is this expensive to run, I don't know. It just seems unfair to me that the platform would get 5% and "only" 95% are distributed to the projects. I do understand that everyone has a different definition of "fair" and I also don't know what I'd be willing to spend. It's something I'd need to think about.



It doesn't matter whether the payment happens once or multiple times if the processing fee is on a percentage basis.
