As always gotta love the feefighters design and graphics.
But I would have just preferred to see a 2D plot with average transaction and monthly volume along the X and Y and regions shaded as blue/red for paypal/merchant account.
The design's beautiful, but I can't help wondering why they didn't stick a PayPal affiliate link below the PayPal fees table and a "sign up to compare merchants" link below the merchant fees table
Working on it... we actually didn't post this to HN or expect the traffic bump, or we would've done that before. It takes a while to get approved.
The main thing we're interested is drawing traffic to http://feefighters.com for people to run auctions and get the best rates on their credit card processing, but it would be nice to pick up some affiliate revenues as well.
it gets to be a little complicated, especially with the advanced options.
interestingly, it looks cheaper to use paypapl if you have a really low monthly throughput (not surprising), or a really high one (kinda surprising). but never by that much.
