Wilkins Micawber posted:No, sorry, I meant all the kids. Like LadyA and her kid, but also Lauren and her sister, and their mom (Jen?). I know each marriage has been resolved and settled differently (to say the least), but he has kids from both who are growing up without a dad. Sorry if I was unclear. LA has one daughter. CYB has two. The money will be split evenly among the three girls.

Space Kablooey posted:They do take a cut, apparently, and you can also set a fraction (or nothing) of your donation to go towards them. Fwiw these fees are identical for what we charge at my work to take a credit card. It's literally the processing fee, and we put it up front. Tipping the processor feels weird to me. I assume Square is able to get enough profit doing the exact same model, does GFM do something with that additional money?

Sometimes I wonder why I'm still at this site after 18 years. Then I read stuff like this. You're amazing. The people that helped you are amazing. And this community is amazing. Threw in another $100 after reading this story. Thanks for sharing it. That said, we're at $68,838. Make it happen everyone.

Nocheez posted:Tipping the processor feels weird to me. I assume Square is able to get enough profit doing the exact same model, does GFM do something with that additional money? I assume any tips it receives goes towards server costs and employees salaries, and since it's a for-profit company it also goes towards the owners and shareholders. Here's an article from a third party that goes over the GFM's business model.
