Want to increase an automatic payment/donation to a charity

I can't figure out a way to increase the amount of a monthly donation I've been making to a charity.  I asked this last month, but didn't receive any answers.  Can someone tell me how I do that?

 

Thanks!

Go into Automatic Payments and cancel the charity's donation billing agreement. Then go back to the charity website to donate at the new amount and set it up as recurring donation. This will set up a new recurring billing agreement in your PayPal account.

 

Beats contacting PayPal or the organization to do it for you.


Kudos & Solved are greatly appreciated. 🙂

Thanks @sharpiemarker 

 

I had thought that there must be a way to simply change the amount from my PP account ... but your solution will be almost as easy.

I don't know how my response became the 'accepted solution'.  That definitely wasn't my intention.  LOL

I volunteer answering questions in the eBay Community ... and always wondered why/how OPs selected their own post as the 'solution'.  So now I know.  

😊

 

[I've also learned here that once a post is selected as the solution ... it can't be changed.]  Ah well.

 

Thanks again @sharpiemarker

I don't think there is a way to do that from our account though without contacting the vendor as they have access to the subscription/recurring payment plans. We can only change payment method or cancel on the billing agreement of the subscription/recurring payment plan.

I just discovered in the eBay Community how to 'undo' an Accepted Solution.  [You use the drop-down menu in the post and choose 'Not a solution'.]

 

Thought I'd mention it in case it's helpful on this site.
