Whoops, didn't see your 2nd sentence. Donate doesn't seem right as PayPal reserves it for non-profit organizations. "This button is intended for fundraising. If you are not raising money for a cause, please choose another option. Nonprofits must verify their status to withdraw donations they receive. Users that are not verified nonprofits must demonstrate how their donations will be used, once they raise more than $10,000."

| Jun 27, 2015 at 17:45 | comment | added | JTP - Apologise to Monica♦ | Your line "make it clear that nothing will be provided in return" seemed to me that you wish to avoid tax. But I see, you wish to avoid owing the buyer anything more. I'd just use the same donate button, knowing "donate" is a misnomer. | |
| Jun 27, 2015 at 17:43 | comment | added | Cyral | @JoeTaxpayer That question focuses on whether it is considered income or not. I want to know how to accept the money (variable price item in PayPal?). (Minecraft has existing services such as Buycraft that integrate with PayPal) | |
