Kickstarter launches Drip, a Patreon competitor
I had an idea for a competitor in the Patreon space a couple of years ago, but with a twist that I feel would have made &quot;patrons&quot; much more comfortable with the whole thing. I even registered a domain, started on some coding, and consulted with some designers. But it quickly became apparent that financial gateways (credit cards, Paypal, etc) are hostile to the idea of allowing me to charge customer A, keep a cut, and pay customer B. Terms of service usually forbid this sort of action.<p>How does one circumvent this hostility? Obviously it&#x27;s possible, since Patreon and Drip exist, but I didn&#x27;t know where to start. I still think my idea is worth a try, but I&#x27;m stuck.
