Because each thing is its own thing, 492 Cafe sets rates at will. We accept cash, barter, and the power of prayer, ...and cash.

Much of the Cafe's efforts and resources are dedicated to not-for-profit and uncompensated work.

Contributions are accepted in the spirit that such gifts will be "paid forward," as the saying goes.

When negotiating compensation for our services, please consider that your payment, in whatever form it may take, supports projects such as Truth and Justice Radio, Sounds of Dissent, This Week in Palestine, and other programs and venues that disseminate progressive information made curiously unavailable by corporate media.
