Ask HN: Free (or cheap) Donation-Collection SaaS apps

3 points by jlgosse 16y ago ↗ HN

One of my good friend's little brothers has "recently suffered from an acute rejection of his transplanted heart". They set up a PayPal donation page, but the donation page is broken, and I don't trust PayPal much as is.

I googled for alternatives but found nothing helpful.

Do you guys know of a quick way to set up a donation page so they can collect money from CC/PayPal/etc for his cause?

Thanks in advance!

You might like to try Kickstarter: http://www.kickstarter.com/ Probably not really appropriate for this cause, but it seems to host quite lot of good-karma fundraising. It's worth a look.

I think this is a pretty good case for WePay (YC W09).

Rich and the team are great.
