Hi there, I'm a developer of a website and I'd like to accept donations on the website. This is not in exchange for any goods, soley for donation purposes. The website is not for profit and is not a registered nonprofit, it's just a side-hobby of mine. I have a verified personal PayPal account, but I don't want to accept donations through it, because I want to remain anonymous towards the buyer.
I tried setting up a business account, and it worked. However, when I received my first donation, it says I can't withdraw the money unless I verify my business's paperwork. I don't have any paperwork for my business since it's not a registered business, so now my donation is stuck in PayPal and I have no way of accessing it.
How do I access these funds, and how do I go about creating a donation shop in the future for my side hobbies without exposing my identity?
Thanks!
