Mark, Will the entire $10 donation amount be credited to the group for the group's maintenance, or the net amount that you will receive after Stripe takes their piece? Annick

Hello, This has been fixed now. You may need to do a force reload (hold down the shift key while clicking the browser reload button). Thanks, Mark

Oh, err, you're right. They need an account with Groups.io to sponsor a group because the payment mechanism uses existing code that requires a Groups.io account. I don't see that as a serious

Thanks, Andy, there must be a bit of a delay. I checked moments ago and it wasn't there and now it is. Lynne Andy Wedge 1 wrote:

I tested this, and: it does show up in my test group. However, when I click it, I'm asked to log in or sign up. What is a reason why people must be registered with Groups.io to use that button? Why

No fees are added to the amount the person chooses to sponsor. That is, if someone chooses to sponsor the group for $10, then $10 will be charged to their credit card. The credit card processing fees

Thank you Duane. So the funds accumulated stay in the group account. What happens to them if a group closes? Nancy

The standard Stripe fees are 2.9% + 30 cents (same as Paypal) and are deducted from the payment. A $5 sponsorship should net $4.55 to GIO. Duane

The sponsorship was turned on for one of my free groups, but I don't see any notice on the group's home page. I double-checked that I had confirmed the group change as well as logged off and then

Not sure whether this is a bug or something with my own computer. As of last night, whenever I type into any groups.io screen the typing is delayed, even within individual words. It stops accepting

A little thing that continues to bother me is hiw hard owners must sometimes work to support a new group... which generally seems to be greatest until a list has ~100 members... which I always called,

You're right, it's not necessarily the way Mark might implement it. But I would be strongly in favour of giving group owners this information. I would also favour group owners getting a great deal of

The options on the hamburger menu are a completely different order to those when viewed from the left-side menu. It would be really helpful if they were at least in the same order and even better if

Yep, a bug. You shouldn't be able to allow sponsorship of subgroups. I've fixed this and refunded your $5 charge. It should appear on your statement in 5-10 days. Thanks, Mark [When your kid has

Hi Mark, the sponsorship facility is available on subgroups so I tested it with a $5 amount. An entry appears in the activity log and I received a notification email. There is no Billing page for
