Allow for credits to be purchased on the website directly for cheaper
KirianVR
As a way for people to support VRChat directly while also paying a little less, this should be a good solution to avoid the 30% transaction fee the platforms take. Those 30% could then be split for example 15% more for vrchat and 15% more for the users.

bumping this again. valve cant verify payments in the uk rn so i cant purchase credits. let me just buy them on the site!!

VRChat not going through an external platform means they gotta come up with their own infrastructure to process payment, handle transactions fees, refunds, potential legal issues, eat up the cost of chargebacks... It's a huge pain.
I don't think they'd be making much more money if they did it themselves, even though that'd be sweet.

id like to see the 30% go straight to the creator, not to vrchat to be totally honest. 20% is still a lot for a platform charge!

°sky: I understand the feeling but realistically VRChat's costs are heavy, I wouldn't mind supporting them more if it means they can get more ressources/eventually become profitable.
