since they do chargebacks on any complaint by the Payor even month’s later I understand.

I agree with Bob and John. I'm aware of this happening with another group I'm involved with where PayPal has made chargebacks months later based on a mere request. One of the recent chargebacks was 6 months after the transaction.

PayPal is not great for the Payee organization, since they do chargebacks on any complaint by the Payor even month’s later I understand. I would not use them, but perhaps another member of the board has a different experience.

I have yet another member miffed and asking me why we don't accept PayPal for membership renewals or store purchases. I thought this subject had come up before, so I did a bit of digging and found that Howard stated that he expected we would be accepting PayPal as payment at HQ "within a year". That was in early January 2019. Soon it will be 2021.

PayPal business transaction fees are discounted for 503(C) organizations, and appear to be in line with what the major credit card companies are charging. (About 2.2%)

Anybody know where we are with this? Should this be an action for A&F to follow up on?

Hi Mike,

I expect we will be accepting PayPay within a year.
