Hello. I'm doing a tax return and have downloaded a  completed payments activity reports from the statements section However the line item totals  don't include the "partner fees" which have been deducted for some payments. These appear as a separate line item. Is there any report where you can get the final amount actually received, as shown on the main Activity screen? Thanks in advance for any advice ... View more

Collecting dues for a private mini league in Fanta...

Hello We run a private Fantasy Premier mini league in our company with everyone (about 20 people) chipping in £5. All money collected is paid as prize money to the winners. Because of Covid we are mainly working from home so I'm looking at a socially distanced way of collecting the money Someone suggested that we could use a Paypal money pool however I have a couple of concerns: Would this be violating Paypal's terms (I don't want to risk my account getting closed) and would we end up losing any money in commission? We are in the UK and all transactions would be in GBP Thanks in advance for any advice ... View more

Accepting "buy me a coffee" donations

I run a website which earns me a small income from advertising. I'm registered as a sole trader in the UK. I'd like to add the option to allow people who appreciate the site to make a paypal payment/donation, possibly via a service like "buy me a coffee" or ko-fi.com. In return, if they wanted, I'd put their name on a supporters page with a link to their blog/website However I've read that some people are having problems with receiving this type of payment through paypal. I'm wondering if anyone can tell me if 1 - They are successfully doing this sort of thing using Paypal? 2 - You should use a Paypal business account (I assume yes) Thanks in advance for any advice! ...
