This was created out of frustration with all the PHP based forum software. I created something much simpler for my own group of friends. Then, two years later, I decided to clean up the code and release it as a paid service. I’m hoping the one-time fee will be a no-brainer decision for some groups.
FYI: I’m using Paymill for credit card processing. They were easy enough to get verified with. Really happy to have a service like that in Europe :)
