Honeyfund.com believes no one should have to pay fees for their honeymoon registry. However many couples want to give their guests the convenience of paying online. So, we make it possible for you to accept credit card payments for your Honeyfund gifts via your own PayPal account. We don't charge a fee for this, but PayPal's fees and restrictions apply.

Be Aware

Couples

• Payments will be processed by your PayPal account directly
• You will need a Premier or Business-type account with PayPal
• PayPal's fees and restrictions apply (usually 2.9% +$.30 USD per transaction)
• You will monitor, track and withdraw your own payments via your PayPal account
• Use of PayPal is at your own risk. See our Terms of Use for more info

Gift Givers

• Will be directed to your PayPal account's payment page after reserving a gift
• Will NOT need a PayPal account to pay by credit card (if you follow these instructions carefully)

STEP 1: Get a Premier or Business PayPal Account

PayPal accounts come in three different types: Personal, Premier and Business. You might already have a Personal PayPal account. However to receive credit card payments from your gift givers, you'll need a Premier or Business account. We recommend a Premier account as it is meant for payments to individuals.

• Don't have a PayPal account? Create a PayPal account here. Click Sign Up Today, then Premier Get Started. Setup your new account, then proceed through the steps below.
• Already have a personal PayPal account? Upgrade your account to Premier or Business. To do this:

a. Login to your existing PayPal account, and click Upgrade under the welcome message:

b. On the next page, click the Upgrade Now button.

c. Now choose a Premier or Business account

d. Proceed through the steps below.

STEP 2: Confirm your e-mail address

On the right side of your PayPal account's Overview page, you'll see a Notifications list telling you what needs to be done to verify your account and lift any receiving and withdrawal limits. Click Confirm email address:

Click Continue:

You will need to open your e-mail account, locate the e-mail from PayPal and click Link Now:

STEP 3: Link your bank account to PayPal

In order to get "verified," lift receiving limits, and withdraw your gift payments from your PayPal account, you will need to link your bank account. Hover over the Profile tab under My Account and then click Add or Remove Bank Account.

Enter your bank account information and click Continue:

Then follow the instructions to confirm your bank account information:

STEP 4: Allow gift givers to pay you without a PayPal account

In your PayPal account, go to My Account > Profile > Website Payment Preferences, then scroll down to configure this setting:

PayPal Account Optional: On

This is very important! If not configured this way your gift givers will be required to open a PayPal account to pay you.

STEP 5: Add your PayPal e-mail address to your Honeyfund account*

Finally, update your Honeyfund payment settings with the e-mail address of your PayPal account, so we know where you send your payments! To do this, go to:

Edit your Honeyfund > Settings > Payment Settings

Check the "Accept Credit Cards via PayPal" box, then enter your PayPal account's e-mail address and scroll down to save the page. We will then send a verification e-mail to your PayPal e-mail address.

STEP 6: Verify your PayPal e-mail address in your Honeyfund account

You will receive a verification e-mail from Honeyfund to your PayPal e-mail address. Click the link in that e-mail to enable PayPal payments for your Honeyfund.

*Security note: Giving us your PayPal e-mail address allows us to direct gifts givers to make payments into your PayPal account. It does not allow us to access your PayPal account.
