Paypal Processor Costs

All online transactions require the use of a credit card processor. We use Paypal to ensure any online donations are protected. Paypal charges a processing cost of 30 cents + 1.9% to 2.9% fee, depending on your country. This cost is added on top of a donation so that you receive the entire amount donated to you. So if your aunt DOROTHY donates $10 to your project, she’ll be charged ABOUT $10.49 (depending on what country she lives in) and you will receive THE FULL $10.
