Attention Commissioners! Boosty Payment
4 years ago
General
As some of you may already know, Russian artists are not able to get payment through most payment resources anymore, sad but true.
Probably the last resort (unless I suddenly decide to leave the country which is hardly happening soon) for me is Boosty, it can be roughly called Patreon clone. In this journal I will collect the basic information about the resource.
Journal from Ezcett about Boosty feedback and some issues and how they were solved: https://www.furaffinity.net/journal/10161490/

I hope to use Boosty as a donation platform in future as well, and add some more content for you too!
Thank you for your attention. Appreciate your help.

I hope the payment goes smoothly for you, but here are some major details (the journal might be updated with more info in future).
For the payment, please:
- use Google account to login
- choose PayPal as payment method
- amounts over ~15-20000 should be divided, as the chance of successful payment of this amount is 50/50. the best option is to divide the amount with 15000 as the biggest payment part. (e.g. 25000: 15000+10000)
As most of us are quite new to this resource, we cannot predict all the possible issues, but here I'll also share some info from Russian resource regarding the most common issues and ways to solve these problems:
❗ "Oh, something went wrong"
- if you're using FireFox, try Google Chrome
- try to relogin into paypal by deleting and adding back your account
- turn off the firewall
- try using incognito tab
- if you're paying from your phone, try using your PC
- from my side I can change payment method to paid post if donation goal won't work
- if the amount is over 15-20k, make sure to divide it if you haven't
- PayPal is highly preferable as it causes less problems. if issues still occur, you can try your credit card (chance of successful payment through credit card is higher than with debit)
- if your bank blocks the transaction (which I hope won't happen) - you'll need to call to your bank and confirm it's you who is sending the payment
❗ PayPal loading
- try paying with your bank card
- you might want to choose 'use another wallet' and login with your account again
- and the previously mentioned options
❗ Boosty still acting dumb, transaction being cancelled
- we can try the next day, it kinda 'refreshes' the next day after ~2pm (GMT+3), and servers are still potato-ish
- we may ask someone else we both know to send the payment
