Re: Premium groups can now ask for donations

Bruce,
Expecting groups to pay for Premium only to skim another 20% off theo ... which includes all credit card processing fees. So Groups.io nets maybe 17 or 18%, but you have a point. My PTA unit decided to simply absorb the 2 or 3% charged by Square rather than try to charge the extra to the unit member. For us that made sense because getting the payment while the parent was standing there at registration was far more certain than trying to collect it later. I'm not sure I could claim with a straight face that a 20% fee would still be a net benefit compared not having online payments at all. Even less so compared with other forms of online payment. Of course, in an all-volunteer organization like a PTA unit, the decision often boils down to "who's going to set it up and run it?" - that person tends to have final say on what "it" is.
