Our board runs a "not for profit" organization and would like to accept online donations. We are not a registered 501c3 and donations we receive are not tax deductible. What kind of PayPal account do we need to accept donations and what are the costs?

Hi @jaysailor

 

Thanks for your question! You would want to register your organization as a business account in the nonprofit category. You may be asked to confirm your 501(C)(3) status, which you can respond to stating you do not currently have that status.
