Is anyone having trouble with email notifications when they receive money?  We are a 501(c)3 organization and receive donations from people for our German Shepherd Rescue.     Many times this is literally "a matter of life and death" for the dogs we are trying to rescue immediately.  People will send donations to us to help save a dog in another state that is scheduled to die if not "claimed" immediately. To "claim" the dog, we will have to send a "pull fee" (like an adoption fee) that we pay the the shelter where the dog is located and they will make sure the dog is safe until we can get transport there to pick them up.  People send us money so we can send it to the shelter to save the dog.  As soon as we receive a donation....we send it on to the shelter that has the dog so they will not put the dog down!  If we don't know we received a donation, we can't send it on, and the dog dies!     Anyway....we have gotten donations (last night for example) and rather than the notification going to our PRIMARY email address....it was sent to another address on our list.  I do not see how to change this?!  This is really important!!!  Dogs are dying because we are unaware of donations to save them in time!   Can SOMEONE......ANYONE......please help me figure out how to have the email notifications sent to our Primary email address (which is already selected)???   Thank you for your help..... ...

Hi. My old domain name (which is the name that my paypal account is in) is due to expire.  I know I can't just "Change it" to my new domain....but I am wondering what will happen to my PayPal account if I do not renew the old domain name?   I have a new domain name and a new email address.  I edited the email, but it will not let me change the domain name.  If I do NOT renew the old domain, and the PayPal Account is in that name...will my account be closed. suspended, or anything?  I do not want a lapse in the account because I do receive payments there.   I guess what I want to know is what kind of impact it would have on my PayPal account if I do NOT renew the old domain (that my PayPal account is regiestered with).  Can you have a PayPal account associated with an expired domain name?  Please let me know asap as the domain is set to expire in the next week.   Thanks in advance. ...

Hi. I am trying to set up the PayPal buttons for my website, and I'm a bit confused. Here is what I want to do, but don't know how. I am hoping someone can either tell me HOW to do it......or point me to specific directions as to how to do it. My site is ready to go public with the exception of this PayPal payment issue.  I have used WYSIWYG Web Builder to build the site, and they have the buttons there that you add for PayPal. I have multiple items on each page...and each item has it's own "add to cart" button. I have gone into each button's properties and entered the descriptions and item prices already. It's the shipping that's got me tied up. I want to charge a flat shipping of $7.50 for the first item....and then $2 for each ADDITIONAL item that is added to the cart. For example....if someone ordered 2 different items.....the shipping would be $9.50, and if they ordered 3 items, the shipping would be $11.50. Right now....it is charging $7.50 for EACH item! It is not based on "what" the item is.....it's based on "how many" items they order whether they're 2 of the same or 2 totally different items......it's still 2 items, and the shipping should be $9.50 total shipping for that order of 2 items.  Can you please tell me how to set this up so the additional items invoice out correctly? Thanks in advance. Like I said...this is the ONLY thing keeping me from publishing my website. ... View more
