I'm considering the "big 3" of CF platforms:

• Kickstarter
• IndieGoGo
• RockeHub

Seems there are a handful of big things to consider, but one that's really interesting is the way they each "charge" the contributors.

From what I can tell, Kickstarter uses Amazon.com payment, IndieGoGo uses PayPal or credit card and RocketHub uses credit card input only.

What are the pros & cons of each? And if you had to choose based ONLY on payment method, which do you think you would pick?

If I had to choose based on payment method, I think I would choose PayPal. I like the reporting features paypal gives. It's easy to export your data for tax analysis, planning, etc. PayPal is also pretty well known now.
