I wonder if there would be a way to front load say ten bucks to a global store that then disperses funds monthly. So a user could do one "big" transfer then pay up to that for apps. Transaction cost would be more reasonable and then that org pays out to the devs via bank account linking.
This sounds a lot like the Flattr model - a service that had its moment in 2010/2011, but ultimately failed: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flattr
Payments are a challenge, with processing fees and taxes in an international context, small sums don't work out well - there's a reason why services like Liberapay push you to do bigger amounts at one time instead of small amounts at multiple points in time.
