How does this differ or compete with platforms such as patreon? Also I signed up and it defaulted to Artist, I feel like major category type should be chosen during onboarding. Also, sign in with Google should be a thing I think.
Thanks for the suggestions, @viperscape. Here's how we differ from Patreon:
1. For one-time payment needs. Only your most loyal followers are likely to go through a sign-up process to pledge a monthly payment. Buy Me A Coffee accepts payments in less a minute, without no commitments or friction.
2. Showcase your goals, and comments left by other supporters.
3. Shareable link, and a much friendly solicitation for support.
4. Multiple payment options. We currently support Paypal, Stripe (Patreon use this) and very soon - Cryptocurrencies too.
