Sorry but this is a very lazy product.

You are providing almost nothing of value, but a thin layer on top of stripe and you are charging like 5 times more than stripe.

It reads a lot like it's in the patreon, onlyfans space. Which would obviously get blocked due to either being a reseller of their merchant services or by distributing porn.

If you really want to continue you need to build your own pci infra, and be clear about whether you allow high risk industries like work from home prostitutes, both in branding and through acceptable use policies

In general you need to provide a clear product and clear value instead of making a really small product and charging a huge cut of revenue.

Regards.

This is just the middle man product for a bigger projects. Heyhey is the medium for our platforms to come. I understand the lack of information in our landing page might give you the idea that we distribute unsolicited digital items, but we review each item for cleaner marketplace. We really didn’t have the time to fix certain stuff like the lp for we are both studying, working and trying to build a whole brand and a company. HEYHEY is a digital business card that you gather all your socials without any feeds to distract you. We kept it simple for creators to distribute from their socials and sell & get commission “without any cuts” packaged all in a clean design. So no, with all the backend security & encryption, precise design UI and UX , I don’t think you can call it a lazy product just bcs it’s simple. We’ll strive for better, thank you for the upvote!
Bro what do you mean security, UI, Ux. This is literally a page with links and a payment option.

It's as if you searched for a checklist of what a webpage needs, but you forgot to put actual content, and you slammed a paymeny option.

Your competition like linktree is free, and in my experience it's only used to circumvent domain based restrictions to post malicious, pornography, or gambling links.

Get real, be more ambitious. Build an actual product, not just a template.

It wasn’t just a webpage and nor a link page for the months we planned out. We are free too btw and the “competition” you mentioned charge you more and more as you upgrade for basic features we already provide. You have no clue what the product is or the agenda we have, this was a thread to let other people know not to trust Stripe. There is a whole structure and a framework for future implementations and connections with other projects that isn’t available on HEYHEY yet you are lacking the positive approach to even ask about it. Sad
