I was looking through some provider ads (can't remember which cities) and saw a few that stated donations could be provided through CC, not just cash. These were independent ladies and not agencies. Wondering what others think of using credit cards, paypal, etc for the hobby.
especially if you are married... PayPal will lock an account with suspected illegal activity & the holder may never get the funds. Credit card charges can be disputed & reversed when the wife or boss demands to know what these charges are. Cash is King!
There's someone who tours to NY (from PA) who will accept specie. Her website says,
i am also accepting gold & silver in lieu of federal reserve notes. you may pay exclusively in silver, or *established friends* may mix-and-match precious metals with cash (i also accept gold) -- contact me privately for such an arrangement.
a couple of notes: PLEASE bear in mind that these rates are subject to fluctuate. these are accurate as of 11/12/13. also, please make sure you mention using silver or gold when contacting me.
1 hr ~ 14 oz of silver 1.5 hrs ~ 20 oz of silver 2 hrs ~ 25 oz. of silver 3 hours ~ 1/2 oz. of gold + 5 oz silver 4 hours ~ 1/2 oz. of gold + 10 oz. silver 12-16 hours (overnight)~ 1 oz. of gold
I vaguely remember that she accepts pre-1965 (pre-copper nickel) US coins (dimes, quarters) that are pure silver at "silver value" not face value. Boy, counting dimes could sure cut into the hour

I humbly withdraw. The rest is between you and ter.
Although I'm happy to turn over my research.
With the ire I incurred, good thing I have no interest in your white list or GLS inner circ.
I want to preface this with I only read the OP and then responded.
I personally know that most of the forms of payment that easily allow you to accept credit cards, also come with many risks for providers. If you dispute the charge, the funds are often frozen. Possibly including other funds in your account if they believe that you are a suspicious vendor. This is my main reason for not openly accepting CC. Thus far, the only means of doing so that I have found - that also protect my identity - is if I decide to accept a gift card at the meeting. Or green dot before the meeting. Other than that I have yet to find a way to process payments other than cash.
I thought about it a few times considering how easy technology makes accepting CC payments threw the square reader app available. Althought, I really can't afford the paper trail to be exposed
PerfectStorm I love that picture you inserted. Great Lol!
