How to Receive Donations Online via PayPal

1. Visit the PayPal site to enroll for a free account (see Resources). You will have to provide confirmation of your organization's nonprofit status.
2. Set a donation amount or allow visitors to enter an amount. After registering, you will receive coding to place on your website which will link visitors to PayPal. Your organization will directly receive the donation, minus PayPal's fees.
3. Inform prospective donors they need not have a PayPal account to donate. They can enter their information for a one-time transaction.
