Will I get a receipt?

Yes, you will receive an email receipt immediately after your PayPal donation is verified. If you make a donation by cash or check, a receipt will be handed or mailed to you.

Are there fees or service charges when donating by PayPal?

The temple pays PayPal fees to ensure the donor is credited for the full donation. PayPal charges 2.2+% plus $0.30 for each transaction. For example, for a $100 donation, the temple receives from PayPal $97.50, but PABT will credit the donor for the full $100 donation. In the future, should you decide to donate by check or cash, the temple can avoid paying this fee. Thank you for your support.
