PayPal is an online payment system that many people prefer to use because their credit card is only being held by one online site but can be used at many sites.

You can either enter a credit card, connect to your bank account, or do both (and choose which one to use for each transaction). The advantage of a linked bank account is that there is no fee associated with the transaction — UUFSD gets the full amount.

A Credit Card transaction has fees, but it’s advantage is that there is a mechanism to dispute a credit card purchase that is not present with direct bank transfers. (so perhaps use the Bank transfer for donations, and a Credit card for all other purchases).

Once you have a PayPal account, you can make a donation by paying the account called “paypal@uufsd.org“, as indicated in the image below:

On the next screen, you will also have the option to specify the purpose of the donation, for example “Pledge payment” in the image below:
