PayPal accounts aren't like they used to be. One can't simply just create one and collect money for whatever the reason. New rules and regulations now govern these virtual financial accounts and info have to be verified and legit. I say this to explain the brevity and responsibility required now to open a PayPal account. PayPal security will check your Identity and will ask for documents eventually if they see funds come in like a flood so be prepared and not mad or irritated as I see so many that come in here to fume about why PayPal limited their account and asking for this or that document.
With that out of the way, if you run this fundraiser thing yearly and running it in a business like way, then go for the business account. If you want to get confirmed as a charity for the account, you can so you could get the benefits of being a charity account like lower PayPal fees for accepting donations. Or it can just be straightforward individual business account and indicated as for charity in the business information section in the account profile and have people through the use of donation buttons. There may be personal tax responsibilities if the account is under your name as an individual business account. Not a registered company.
So you have a decision to make. Accepting money online brings a level of complication to this project.
Kudos & Solved are greatly appreciated. 🙂
