I think a club (such as a Villages' club) can register for a personal account and not as a business. Is that true?
The fee structure is unclear to me.
I think that the following is the case:
1. If you use PayPal (or other form of digital payment collections) and the payee uses his checking account or PayPal debit, then there is no fee for either party.
2. if you go from member credit card to club's bank account then the credit card user is charged a fee.
is that correct?
Have you been happy using digital payments like PayPal?
If not, why?
thank you so much for answering.

I currently go to four different groups at the Laurel Manor Rec center. Have attended groups in rec centers since we first moved here as snowbirds and we now are full time. I can think of only a handful of times I was asked for any money for anything. Maybe for a surprise gift for the volunteer leader or we were having lunch brought in for a special occasion. If a volunteer asks for money it is most unusual.
Groups in rec centers are not supposed to be for profit, unless an outside group rents the room for some occasion that the rec center must approve.
