It seems #FightBack set up this campaign as an additional way to receive funds. Not sure why.

About Snowball
Payment Processor
Payment processor is Stripe, and Stripe has problems.
Is Stripe, see FAQ:
our payment processor, Stripe
Stripe is already holding funds from the GiveSendGo campaign hostage! See GiveSendGo campaign update #4:
Stripe continues to hold several hundred thousand dollars of our funds hostage and we are coordinating with #FightBack to seek remediation of this politically-motivated hack-job. We encourage our donors to express their displeasure with Stripe, if they feel so inclined, by sending an email to complaints@stripe.com.
Surely FightBack knew about this problem before setting up this new campaign at this new Snowball site? Why would they do this knowing there are problems with Stripe?
How much does Snowball deduct from each transaction?
from Snowball's FAQ:
Q: How much does Snowball take from each transaction?
A: Our payment processor deducts a small fee from each transaction to cover credit card costs. Premium transactions get a rate of 2.2% + 30 cents for Premium accounts and 2.9% + 30 cents for all other account types. Donations made via American Express credit cards are charged a flat 3.5% rate (without the extra 30 cents), regardless of plan type.
