personally, i have quite a few subscriptions that are lower than $10, such as nyt, wsj, apple icloud+, and some newsletter. popular services like streaming and music are also only slightly more than $10, and likely costs less overall than your services. for these subscriptions, your service can cost more without bringing much to the table

i also dont feel any inconvenience to use my sock-drawered card on purchases. they are in my apple wallet all the time, so i will just use them whenever the opportunity arises, which is when i have a very small transaction, e.g. when i get a drink, a loaf of bread, ice cream, a gum, parking, etc. so i do think im better off than paying you $0.6 or $1

im not saying your idea cant work, but i feel the pricing is a potential problem. fortunately, it seems this is a very low cost venture, so it is worth a shot. i am concerned about what banks think about such transactions though
