If anyone has a free few minutes then could you please fill out this survey https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/FQRVYD6. This survey is about what forms of payments you would be able to donate to Fly High with. Il post the results whenever it seems like a few people have done it.

I think US Dollars would be the most sensible. It's probably the best known currency in the world.


RE: Donations - dbd - 05-18-2015

Does anybody know how PayPal handles international payments?


RE: Donations - skifans - 05-18-2015

There are a few ways of handling this (I believe). 1, have Fly high handling conversations. You (Fly High) gets a message like this:

Another option is to only take one currency and let the user handle the currency conversion. This gives the user a page like this:

Gernaly PayPals exchange rate is rubbish. Form experience it is always worth paying in the currency required by the company instead of having PayPal convert it for you, banks offer alot better exchange rate. I looked back and my bank would have given me 1.56216 USD for my GDP.
