Crowdfunding Droplets via Paypal links

Posted on March 20, 2021

Hi,

I have a digital ocean account only for one droplet, that is used by a group of people and I’d like it to be “crowdfunded” in a way.

My idea was to share the Paypal links (the one behind the “Continue to Paypal” Button in the billing settings) for 5/10/25,- etc. to the community but I wonder if those are save to share and won’t change over time?

If this is not save, is there any other way achieve this kind of funding?

Thanks,

Christian

Hi there,

I would personally go for PayPal.me, that way you can share a permanent personalized link with your community and they will be able to fund you.

You can create an account at:

https://paypal.me

And then you will have a personalized URL like this one that you could share:

https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/bobbyiliev

Hope that this helps! Regards, Bobby
