I was hoping it might be helpful to other people launching their startup. If you're already running Adwords, then that's a great place to start looking for guidance about how to market your product in a single sentence.
However, I find the feedback in the comments section to be hugely valuable. HN readers are inevitably pretty savvy about startups. While you can get a lot of criticism - it can be quite constructive, pointing out things everyone else you show the site too has missed. Getting onto the front page is vital to get any volume of comments.
The feedback about the "hidden cost" is great. I've heard that a lot. I definitely need to communicate somehow that we attempt to up-sell merchants with premium services and use the chargeback essentially as a lead to talk to them.
Yup, Australian :) Although the site does localise to the US and UK as well.
There will be a short delay before the merchant notification emails come out. We put them through a degree of manual approval and due to load from HN traffic it may take some time for them to be fully processed.
