LoTW is a free system designed by ARRL.
I will use this great system.One group collects money for using LoTW. I do detest this practice and consider it shameful.

                                One Observation on QSL Cards
The QSL bureaus in Japan have not improved the old system for 20 years and have not built a great system like ARRL's LoTW system, so there are huge pile of unprocessed cards at QSL bureaus in Japan. Therefore, it will take more than a year for you to receive your card. Even in Japan, it takes a year. The world is promoting energy and resource conservation activities based on SDGs, and I believe that a system like LoTW will be effective in the future.
