Any completely legal work arounds I can think of for personal de-carding require trusting another person(s) and/or LLC for business activities and them accepting the risk they get collateral deboonked just for knowing you or your LLC ends up in a legal dispute with another LLC where you're forced to have a lawyer. I do not envy your position.

1. License out the IP to another business via a cut or fee for any merch sold with Kiwi branding and shill the shit out of it. Higher risk and is technically a business relationship.
2. Avoid any true legal relationship and just get a sponsor code for another completely distinct and independently owned merch LLC's kiwi-flavored merchandise and shill the shit out of it via sponsored banners on the website and sponsored slots on the podcast. Its just paid advertisements, so...
 
Here are some suggestions to increase revenue:
  • It's should be possible to buy gold for other users, and there should be more options on the crypto page than one month or 12 months.
  • Put the cringe e-begging front and center and on top of the page. Lame and reddit maybe, but null gots to get paid.
  • Maybe have some edgy webgames on the site. Those who participated in kiwi gamejam could make a few, and they could have levels exclusive to gold supporters. Etc.
  • If all else fails, introduce kiwi platinum supporters, for 50$ a month, with even more stickers.

Has anyone else's bank flagged them for trying to set up BillPay to Lolcow LLC? I'm interested if this is a one time thing or if its a pattern. You can never trust the banks too much.

Follow up to this a while later, the bank was being retarded so I switched to another, and now I've setup BillPay today without problems at all. Dont let the banks out-jew you :jaceknife:
 
Since new supporter features are being added (and sorry if this already exists or has been suggested):
How about a page / section where all of the content currently being sponsored is displayed at once?
Like the Featured Content page?
 
Viewing all of this, it's pretty cool how Null handles all the financial world of things on the kiwi site. I didn't know about all of this being a newfag, I wonder if they get stressed or not. I'm surprised they got banned from global banks too, I wouldve assumed this site would be anonymous in nature but being known affiliate of this site must suck. At least we have starbucks refreshers though, right? I don't think you could even pay in any other way but cash if you do order. I'll think about sending an anonymous check to support the more I get used to the vibe here after joining rather than lurking and browsing. You'll be recieving my money soon Null.

Yeah if you look at Patreon, most people would throw a few bucks a month for mini kiwi tiers, and a small proportion of people are willing to donate a lot, like $50 or $100 for platinum kiwi. So it may be worth it to introduce lower tiers, although if it is worth it with fees I don't know
 
This place has made me too much of a schizo to do the Billpay thing, but I upped for a year using Monero. I don't know if it helps with the whole "steady income" thing to have it all at once, but there you have it.

By the way, the BTCPay thing worked perfectly but it's very quick on the trigger to activate. I got my gold before the Monero transaction even got one confirmation on the blockchain.

Good suggestions but still requires an extremely high level of trust.

Yes. The little kiwi-to-egg slider needs to be more prominent than at the bottom of the page, and maybe include a small blurb saying something like "want the other kiwis to hatch? donate to help them!" or something - you need to unironically start channeling PPP with how you advertise the BillPay. It also wouldn't hurt to try coming up with and Claude'ing more paid features as incentives. The sponsor banners were and still are a good motivator, but it evidently isn't enough to get 600.

Yeah...it needs to be more obvious. I saw it and didn't know what it was until I saw the explanation here. take a page out of FreeRepublic's playbook for their numerous fundraising drives and have an obvious progress bar on the side panel.

Take a page out of Wikipedia's playbook and have an obnoxious pop up everytime someone first visits the page if you want to make sure every body knows.

Take a page out of DSPs playbook and shoot a video with you with a flushed red face and teary beady dark eyes saying 'I-I need that money I really do I need that money. To pay my bills' And then start listing the specific bills you have. As a bonus step, accidentally leak the name TheyCallMeNull and have it lead right to accounts for mobile games where people can watch you blow thousands of dollars at the same time you are asking for money. That should really jack up the donations from certain people.

I can check my (You)'s all in one place? Dammit Null, you've done it again.

Is crypto currently the only way to send a single large donation?

If your bank does billpay, you should be able to send just one check that way, too. When I set mine up it asked if this was once or EVERY MONTH FOREVER until I turn it off.

This is too useful a suggestion to get buried.

A lot of people don't look at the front page often. Some people only visit a few threads and don't have an idea of what's going on on the rest of the site, or what's going on with the site until you put up that announcement that says whether it's troons or the British who are DDOSing right now.

Putting up an announcement for the pledge drive, dammit wouldn't be undignified.

(A slobbermut version of the Sarah McLachlan SPCA commercial would kill in Beauty Parlor.)
 
I just noticed my status was gone. Went to check and for some reason, and I think my bank just completely stopped sending payments. I genuinely have no idea why. Anyone else having this issue? Or is it paying after all and there's just a lapse in check payments or something?

Edit: Okay, I think it was a lapse in check processes or something. I have another one scheduled to send out in a few days already, so it looks like it never stopped. Hopefully Null can confirm.
 
Nothing new in. I think they're just losing checks. I cannot fucking wait for an alternative. OGB said end of the month for an RDC but I don't know if I can wait. These fucking retards at the deposit institution are ruining everything. It's the simplest job in the world and they can't do it.

like I can't stress enough is that I get notices from the mail guy every week that deposits are going out. therefore, we should be seeing activity every week. that is not the case. they are just not doing shit.
