Credit Card transactions / donations

Hey all -

I'm working on a website for my buddy who's running 2 triathlons in 4 weeks to raise money for the The Alan T Brown foundation - You can see more details at www.endureforacure.com Can anybody recommend a good / cheap, secure online credit card xsaction software, site, or arrangement?

Thanks - ip

I believe Paypal has special arrangements for non-profits. I have several friends who have used it for fund-raising, as well as several small non-profit organizations that I have worked with.

Thanks KLD. I'll check it out. I was not going to go w/ Paypal because it requires a long registration process for potential donors. May scare them off.

But I'll look to see if perhaps they have an expidited way of contributing.

Thanks Scott. Paypal's cheaper. Paypal charges either 2.2% or 2.9%, no setup fee. 2checkout is 5.5% and $49 setup fee.
