Can you please share a reliable source?

Well, it links to her non-explicit social media…

One can presume the preferred option is their preference.

But the preferred option makes little sense for Europeans in the SEPA region. SEPA transfers have no fees attached by law.

From what I know, non-profits can better calculate with lower but regular payments. I make a monthly payment of two Euro which isn’t the world but it’s steady, ends up a similar amount per year as you, and I won’t cancel this anytime soon.
