For indie developers that make visual novels, monetization is an unavoidable pain point. Some use Patreon, some build their shop - but payment is often a problem. I've helped a friend with this and we decided to use payment orchestration software , which is a central payment hub to plug into Stripe, PayPal, crypto, and even local options like GCash or Payoneer. If you are a VN dev selling to a global audience, this allows for less cart abandonment and more time spent on writing and art, rather than payment issues or payment issues by region!
