Probably not at all. As it was explained to me (admittedly last year), the fee for using pay pal would eat into so much of our profits as to nullify its usefulness.

I find that unlikely. It's a marginal percent. We do IFL club dues ($15), and the PayPal fee is $.74... and that's only if the funding source is a credit card.

The funding source only matters if you have a basic account, in that you can't accept CCs and can only accept if paid from Bank, or PP Balance. To accept the CCs you have to upgrade, and then they hit you on every transaction, no matter the source.

The fees for something like this would be small, as Rush stated, are low. And as long as you are not selling your pre-regs on Ebay, you can state that if the person wants to pay via paypal, they have to pay an additional $1.00 fee.
