I don't really want to reveal my identity online and I've been trying to find how I can do that. It seems like Patreon is the only one that acts as a middleman between you and the donator but it only does monthly subscriptions which I don't really want to have..

Revealing it to who? The service you're getting money through? Good luck. The donor? That's pretty easy.

On PayPal you can set up a donation page that only lists the name you give it. It might have something to do with setting up an organization or something? Anyway, I use it for donations for my DayZ server and it doesn't display personal info, just the server name.

I don't know if CashApp shows anything other than the name you set, or if there's some way to find one with the other, but that might be worth looking at.

Right, that's what I want, just the donor.

On PayPal, It mentioned that it was the "legal business name" so I guess I got scared because of that.

CashApp is not available in Canada.

They may have different policies in Canada than in the US. I'd try contacting their support to find out!
