Title: How interested would you be with an indie micro-payments system for flash?
Post by: puddinlover on August 12, 2009, 09:02:36 AM
I'm considering funding a venture into making a flash payment system for indies.

I see many indies just use ads in their flash games and the current micro-payment systems get too much commission.

So if there is an interest in this sort of system then I might fund the creation of one.

To be honest, I can't say that I've looked at any micro-payment system and said, "Gee, I'd love to use this, but their take on commission is just too high." Still, I encourage you to do this, if only to exert downward pressures on the other providers to lower their take. And of course, if I ever did decide to use micro-transactions, the percent of income I would get to keep would be a major factor in deciding who to go with. ;)
