Thank you Isaac for such a great presentation of our product 🙏

The name is too similar to Polars (Rust successor to Pandas)

This is really cool. I always have projects I'm working on and monetisation just always seemed to be a pain to set up. This might actually encourage me to add monetisation to my apps not to mention how this approach seems to be a perfect fit for the flatpak application packaging format on linux. Hope to see this take off

Does the 4% cover credit card processing fees?

Can I use this for ranks on minecraft server?

[manjutripathi]

can we build this feature with the polar API :-

I want user to send money to another user using polar and I will take some percent cut and polar can take his fee.

Do you know if they support or have plans to support metered (usage based) billing?
