Prayers · the catalog
A prayer costs one cent.
A prayer costs one cent for everyone, always. Everything above a cent buys days on the wall or a person's time, never a better prayer.
The Wild is a field guide and a wall of candles. The spirits are drawings. It is not a church, a charity, or any religion, and no tradition is represented here.

What was cut
Three things we will not sell.
- 01
A tenth-of-a-cent ember
The payment fee would be the whole price. A cent is the floor.
- 02
Prepaid bundles
The Wild never holds a balance for anyone.
- 03
A card-funded split to keepers
Passing card money to a third party by hand is not something The Wild does. A keeper's share only ever settles on-chain.
Coil and Flattr, two services built on tiny prepaid payments, both shut down in February 2023.
