How Support Works

What does a contribution on Support the Work fund?

Contributions directly support Paul Melluzzo's independent creative and technical work, including Driven to Create podcast episodes and transcripts, open R&D lab experiments, technical breakdowns, and creative tools.

Can I leave a message or stay anonymous when contributing?

Yes. Supporters can leave an optional message of up to 255 characters and either provide a public display name or choose Stay anonymous. Names and messages appear on the page after a quick review. Cardholder billing names and emails in Stripe are never shared publicly.

How do I manage or cancel a monthly recurring contribution?

Monthly support is managed through Stripe's hosted Customer Portal using an emailed login link—no separate account on paulmelluzzo.com is required to update a payment method or cancel.

Are contributions tax-deductible donations or client service retainers?

No. Contributions are voluntary tips supporting published creative and technical work and do not constitute tax-deductible charitable donations or retainers for client services.
