The problem with that is the fee structure that CCard companies charge.
Most put on a fixed fee (generally less than $1) plus a discount of less
than 5%.  So (assuming average fees of $.50+2.5%), Mandrake gets $4.37
if someone signs up monthly.  If they sign up for the full year, they
get $58.

I imagine Mandrake might offer monthly rates, but only at higher rates
than $5.  Even $10 might be pushing plausibility on a monthly basis.

Maybe a quarterly option at $30/quarter would work, though.
