In europe (SEPA = Single Euro Payments Area) I usually use bank transfer via IBAN (International Bank Account Number) and BIC (Business Identifier Code).
SWIFT seams to be connected in some manner to BIC. Sometimes BIC is called SWIFT-BIC…
Can I support moOde without 'donating' my personal data to some data-selling company?
moOde is the only audio-player which definitely is most worth to donate to.
…and I want to support it! (Without spreading my personal data.)
Thanks for the amazing work. Absolutely love moOde!
Any suggestions?
Kind regards

See post #2 but realistically your personal info has already been spread to the max by simply using a credit card. Using PayPal won't make that situation any worse.
The fact is that donations have not kept pace with the effort needed to maintain the project including hosting and domains, test equipment, Forum admin, software development, release admin, and user support. Its not an unexpected trend and is due to the dynamics of the donation model and age of the project, however as the trend continues in 2025 the negative effects on the moode project will continue to increase.
