https://community.squareup.com/t5/Archived-Discussions-Read-Only/What-is-the-fee-for-accepting-online-donations/m-p/606889#M2972 <P>I have an online store that I set up a donations page. I received my first donation and it Square says that only a portion of the amount will be transferred to my bank. What are the fees to receive donations?? I swear I read all the fine print and that's why I used Square. If there are fees to accept a donation, then I can do that with any other app and don't need square.&nbsp;</P> Wed, 19 Oct 2022 04:08:27 GMT Srhswrestling 2022-10-19T04:08:27Z https://community.squareup.com/t5/Archived-Discussions-Read-Only/What-is-the-fee-for-accepting-online-donations/m-p/606889#M2972 <P>I have an online store that I set up a donations page.
