Hi Jaiam,

We already have something that does pretty much exactly that... it just doesn't pay out-of-site funds. That's what the Gift Point system is, and you can pay with any major credit card or Paypal account.
The interesting thing is, even though Gift Points don't work offsite, they do help members of the site defray the costs of their own memberships or allow them to buy other merchandise or "perks" on here-- so I'd say it's a system that would still have the same net effect on the writer's "income," by helping to support their membership on the site.

Hope that helps!
