Not really, since very small amounts (e.g. <$5) go almost entirely to PayPal, with SpaceEngineer getting little or none of it.

How does that work? If I look at the PayPal website it states:

Quote
There’s no fee to use PayPal to purchase goods or services. However, if you receive money for goods or services (such as from selling an item on eBay), the fee for each transaction is 2.9% plus $0.30 USD of the amount you receive.

Which would mean about $4,50 should be left of a $5 dollar donation. Exact numbers may vary, but not much. Of course, donating a little more is never a bad idea for such an amazing piece of software. When you look at other software available for 15-25 dollar SE is generally in a different league.

But this is not a purchase, this is an international money transfer from a private individual to a private individual. I don't know all the exact details, SpaceEngineer might be able to clear things up.

Private transfers are free, though there might be a conversion cost involved as I imagine most donations are not in ruble. Long story short: donate lots of money and everybody will be happy.

It might be that there's only a fee when donating via credit card, and not when using your PayPal account directly. But I do remember reading about there being fees involved.

Was it a single donation or from multiple people? This is great news!

I think it is thanks my post on Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r....ntext=3
I hoped it would raise, like, 50 bucks or so. Over 1000$ is WAY beyond my expectations. Awesome.
Big thanks to everyone who donated.

Thank you (and /u/DukenPL) so much for this! I also advertised SpaceEngine on /r/gaming a week or so ago, but I guess I just approached this whole thing the wrong way, too long title etc. if you know what I mean. It got about 160 upvotes, really nice to see that yours got 4200+!
