I will say that I'm very humbled by everyone's generosity. This tool is the majority of cowtool's costs, but it's not the vast majority.

I don't want to say it's $1/day and then have usage explode. But there are also non-AWS costs.

Regardless, I expect nothing, but I'm appreciative for everything that reduces (or eliminates) the monthly transfer from my personal to business checking account.



Uh hmm I'll see if I can turn on a setting in Stripe for that. Guess I should have tested it myself, but I've put in enough money that I don't want to have to pay a processing fee just to transfer money from canadiancow to cowtool 😂
Just donated, no confirmation nor email received
I agree it's hard to know if it happened unless one go checks the credit card limit/pending transaction. Not a big deal

btw, that brings us to whether cowtool can integrate Google Ads for income?
I'm sure there are travel/airfare ads out there that can link, or even target ads linked to the destination :P (like Japan ads if destination are Japan airports)
