Hi all,

I'm Connor, founder of Vessal, and wanted to (1) share with the group and (2) collect any feedback or suggestions you all may have.

Briefly, Vessal aims to make transportation private and secure. In some ways, it can be equated to a "VPN for transportation."

We are still relatively in our infancy, and therefore may be a little clunky sometimes as far as usability. Of course, we are always striving to improve!

Thanks for your time and taking a look, and again, we appreciate any feedback or suggestions you may have.

Connor

What is your target audience or use case? Because the obvious choice would be illegal items, which are excluded by your TOS. And while privacy enthusiasts are willing to spend extra, your asking price is too steep for casual use.

I noticed the pricing page is entirely dollar nominated, with the only payment option listed "cash on delivery", listing a bunch of typical payment options. Monero is only mentioned as a feature on the usage and FAQ tab, and both are easy to miss. Initially I wondered why you were posting here if you only accept paypal and such.

Thank you for the feedback! And that makes sense, I have received multiple comments on it being hard to understand what payment methods are accepted.

Target audience is privacy enthusiasts, and the pricing was/is a concern of ours. We ultimately want to decrease it as low as possible while in turn achieving more volume.

I really appreciate your time and sharing your thoughts, would you mind if I message you directly on some items?

I prefer public discussion. If you must reach me privately, please send me a simplex invite, the lemmy chat is not encrypted.

Got it, may do that in the future then, however for now will keep it here; we added a line as well on the Pricing page signaling only XMR is accepted, do you think that provides adequate clarity?

[–] itsmect@monero.town 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Yeah just say you accept either prepaid with Monero (XMR) or using the cash-on-delivery option. A link to getmonero.org in the FAQ would be appreciated, but is not required.
