<p>
If you haven't already done so, <a href="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_registration-run" target="_blank">sign
up for a PayPal Account here</a>. Choose the account type (Personal, Premier or Business) that is
right for your particular case. This account (email address) will be where all donations will be
sent.
</p>
<ol>
<li>
<b>Personal</b>
<ul>
<li>free to send / receive payments</li>
<li>cannot receive payments from credit cards</li>
<li>limited to $1,000 in payments per month</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>
<b>Premier</b>
<ul>
<li>fee for accepting payments</li>
<li>may receive payments from credit cards</li>
<li>includes a wide variety of tools (like PayPal shopping cart, subscriptions, recurring payments and more)</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>
<b>Business</b>
<ul>
<li>Unlike the other accounts, your PayPal account is displayed as your company name instead of your personal name.</li>
<li>same fees as the Premier account and allows payments from credit cards</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ol>
<p>
Due to the Personal account's limitation of not being able to receive payments from credit card, I'd
recommend you opt for a Premier or Business account - despite the fees.
