In an effort to continually offer new and innovative fundraising options, we’re happy to announce we are beginning to roll out PayPal as a digital payment method for eTapestry! Enabling PayPal gives you the opportunity to:

  • Offer one of the most trusted payment methods globally[1] and expand your impact by connecting with over 400 million active accounts around the world[2]

  • Seamlessly activate PayPal for your eTapestry donation, registration, cart or membership forms and create a smooth and secure checkout experience for your donors
