Re:Ask HN: Best payment gateway for small transactions? by ssimoni on Tuesday September 22, 2020 @03:09AM (#24551762)
I feel your pain. The flat cents make small online transactions hard to do.

If you can add a 30 cent transaction cost at checkout then you are just paying 2.9 percent on the cart price.

I know that isn’t a great answer to your question. “Raise prices”.

I do think there is room for pricing model innovation at the vendors you looked at. But I don’t see it happening in the next few years.

That's a real shame... I will consider raising the prices but I am really worried about it because it's really just an impulse purchase for a very small thing and I feel like almost no one will be interested if the price is too high.
