Offer Incentives
If you are lucky enough to have funding, why not help spark people past the Web Monetization set up hurdle by offering them an incentive. Examples of some incentives that the Web Monetization Community members have offered in the past include:
Coil membership giveaways would be cool to get small portion of people gets started and to get their testimony first before recommending them to other people. I recalled Andrzej Mazur (@end3r
) did some giveaways for some participants for his games competition. Would be great if we can buy bulk membership giveaways directly from Coil dashboard somehow.
HTML5 Game Developer and Technical Evangelist, Enclave Games indie studio founder, js13kGames competition creator, Gamedev.js community firestarter and Gamedev.js Weekly newsletter publisher.
You can still reach out to Coil folks for the codes, but yeah, being able to just bulk buy a set would be so much easier. And yes, giving "test" accounts to devs made a huge difference, as they were able to debug the entries on their own before submitting to the competition.

@radhyr If you need some free Coil codes, email us directly.
Thanks Chris. I'll keep that in mind if I have plans to organize events in the future!

Yeah, seems like getting them is in a must list when doing competition or other events.
