This puts you in a minority group of probably one payment card service that doesn't charge a markup, which is of course commendable, but realistically, I do not believe that you will (be able to) sustain that indefinitely.

It is revenue that you are missing out on, which will help you stay viable.

In any case, I think you are certainly one of the better representatives RuthB and I wish you and Paxum luck.
