Friends, I'm retiring the bensgigs server due to hosting costs since I'm not making any money from it.
If any of you feel like contributing something on a monthly basis to keep things going and support costs, please email me directly. If enough people respond to cover the overhead, I will get it up and running again :)

Actually, let's just do it this way, here's a PP subscription link. If I get at least 5 signups it will be enough to keep the lights on. Anything on top of that will go toward new features. If I don't get 5 signups, we'll shut er down and your subscription will be canceled and refunded in full.

I see it now too, PP has an "Advanced" service where buyers do not need a PP account.
Ok so seriously, what else is out there? I am going to hit this same problem with another service I'm offering (anyone want singing lessons via Skype video??). I need something that can do international recurring billing.

I'm not going to lie I don't know tons about the service but I know a lot of people are seeing them as an alternative to the evil Paypal (yes I'm not a fan either even though I still use them and they have never given me anything but excellent service I am aware of their issues and don't want to use them if I don't have to).
I have a Dwolla account. I understand the money transfers are instant instead of days like Paypal and I also understand that each transaction not matter how big or small costs 25 cents. No more, no less.
Which considering I lose about seven bucks in fees every time a client pays me $250 through Paypal is pretty attractive.
Check them out. They may have a solution and if they do please share your info/experience. I want to learn more about them myself.

Hmm.. Well I see the benefits of Dwolla for the merchant, but what is the advantage for the buyer? It appears that you need to prime the account with a bank transfer before you can even use Dwolla to pay for anything. I can't imagine that system ever eclipsing credit cards which do not require buyers to place their cash in escrow.

I have had no success with your program, and I've spent a lot of time sweating over the leads and just trying to make it work, and while doing it I've been losing time and money. I don't know where my next rent check is going to come from, and I have hospital bills of my daughter's I have to pay for.
I'm sending you 20$. Because while it may not have worked yet, I believe in you Ben. You've busted your ass for this, and I want to see it succeed.
