My last hacker space used PayPal for monthly collections. I could ask them
how they did it.

Thank you so much for working on this stuff Lucas!!!!!
We do need a lot of
cleanup in the public-facing wiki pages like what you're working on, so
it's
really helpful. Once people get to know us, they can better deal with the
state of flux that we've been existing in, but it helps to get people in
the
door by making our front door look good!
Just specifically to answer this:
--
*Andrew R Gross, (he/him)*
412.657.5332 - shrad.org <http://www.shrad.org>
I would have preferred making monthly payments
with Paypal over Stripe,
BTW.
I don't know how our system implements "monthly payments" with Stripe, but
i'm
guessing PayPal doesn't have the same API and maybe doesn't offer that - if
that's the case, then Sudoroom wouldn't be able to implement a monthly
payment
through paypal.
That said, there would be nothing keeping a person from setting their
sudo-humans payments to nonexistant/0/off and just remembering to send
paypal
payments every month from their end. We haven't been reviewing people's
payment status as a condition of membership (although we do need to start
doing
more to increase our monthly income) so it wouldn't break anything that
way.
thank you!

In the membership page at
https://humans.sudoroom.org/~username/edit/sudoroom (where ~username is
replaced on the fly by the username) there should be some text explaining
that the form gets sent to Stripe without stopping at sudoroom.org.
