STEP 1: Go to the PayPal website (front page) at www.paypal.com. For safety, we are not going to link to it! On that front page, select the "Send Money" option as indicated.


STEP 2: This is where you enter

  1. Our e-mail address for receiving your payment (send.b2b.money@gmail.com)
  2. Your own e-mail address (create a throw away one using hotmail or some such, it won't matter)
  3. Payment for your membership level (Silver: $100; Gold: $150; Platinum: $250)
  4. Select "Personal" and "Gift" options to keep things simple (this is non-business)
  5. Click on the CONTINUE button to advance to the next PayPal page.
PayPal makes you open an account, but it's only an e-mail address and a password. You don't need to link it to anything like a bank account, although they give you that option. Keep things simple. Just using them to send money, nothing more.

By the way, despite the e-mail address to which you send money, doing this leaves no trail whatsoever to Bound2Burst.


STEP 3: This is the same as you would do with any purchase on the Internet. You just need to fill in your name, address, credit card details, etc. We won't ever see the credit card details, just your name and address (which is what we always saw before). If you are opening a new account with them, you will have to agree to the PayPal terms and conditions of use.


STEP 4: Now you send the money. There is a little box that is automatically checked by PayPal which would make you pay their fee. Just uncheck it - we're happy to pay the fee for you. The amount you send will then be exactly what it should be.

And that's it!

The images here are taken from the U.S. version of PayPal. The pages may look different in other countries, but the process should be the same. Let me know if you have a problem with it though, and maybe I can help.

Many thanks to all of you for bearing with us through these difficult times. It won't last forever!
