PayPal Payments Now Require PP Account

Wednesday, July 25th, 2007

Hey Honeyfunders,

We have a bit of unfortunate news…it looks like PayPal is now requiring your gift givers to login or create an account to make a credit card payment. Today I checked it out and here’s what I found out:

The credit card form is exactly the same except at the end your guests will have to enter and confirm a password which will create a PayPal account for them. If they already have a PayPal account they will be asked to login exactly as before.

We’d love to hear from you whether this affects your decision to take credit card payments via PayPal. We’re considering some other options like accepting credit card payments as other registries do, and using Google checkout (which also requires an account). Your thoughts?

Still Working Out Some Kinks

Wednesday, July 25th, 2007

Hi Honeyfunders,

We just resolved a problem with our e-mail system. Since our hosting change, all of the e-mails that have been sent via Honeyfund have been logged but not sent. We just now sent along all of the e-mails from the last two days. That includes e-mails you’ve sent to us via the Contact Us page.  Now that this problem is fixed, we’ll answer all those e-mails you sent to us. We think this is the last issue with our hosting switch.  Thanks for your patience, and please let us know if you see anything else out of the ordinary.
