Add donation option

Hey chess.com team. I saw your plea for membership that you sent out today and I think you should offer the opportunity to donate as well. I'm like a lot of people where I can't justify a $30 investment, but $5 right now is really easy to do. You wouldn't even have to offer anything for people who donate at the $5 or $10 level. I just enjoy playing chess on your app and would love to give you $5. Again, I'm pretty sure you'd find that there are a lot of people like me out there. Thanks for building a great app.

 A one month gold membership is $5. Only downside is it is a subscription; maybe a non-recurring option would be nice.

 

Or, if you prefer to remain basic, you can gift another member a single month membership and that is not recurring; you might also be able to gift yourself when not logged in.

Sounds like the money is drying up due to V3 system catastrophe.

 

There is no catastrophe. It has been a while since I was basic but I'm pretty sure the upgrade messages were just as common in 2009 and 2010 before I upgraded.

Maybe you're right, maybe not about people paying.
