<p>Many artists and makers rely on donations to make ends meet and use PayPal’s “Donate” button to make collecting money from their fans as painless as possible. However, according to PayPal’s Terms of Service, the “Donate” button is only intended for fundraising. In their own words:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>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.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>What’s more, many bloggers have had their PayPal accounts suspended <em>before reaching the $10,000 limit</em> simply because they were using the “Donate” button in a way that PayPal did not intend.</p>
<p>To overcome these limitations, artists have switched over to what is generally called a “Buy me a beer” button: a PayPal “Buy Now” button with a fixed dollar amount, usually between $2 and $10, so that fans can still give money without expecting something tangible in return.</p>
<p>The “Buy me a beer” button has taken on many different forms depending on the personality of the person receiving the money (“Buy me a coffee”, “Buy me subway fare”, etc.) and generally works very well, but it has a severe limitation: only fixed dollar amounts are supported. Many people add a drop-down list of various dollar amounts in order to give fans <em>some</em> flexibility, but they are still values that were prescribed by the author. To give fans ultimate flexibility, and make sure makers don’t miss out on people wanting to support their work with big bucks, the <strong>Support My Work</strong> widget was born.</p>


Support My Work

A WordPress widget that displays a PayPal "Buy Now" and lets users specify the amount that they wish to pay.

Payment Gateway for PayPal on WooCommerce


I installed the plugin, and it was easy to set up and use.


Easy to use


This plugin is great. It works well and also integrates well with the theme we use.



What is best about it though is the spectacular support. We had an issue with emails not being sent that was caused by an incompatibility with another plugin. I also asked for new functionality on another occasion. 



Both times, they replied within hours and had solutions ready a day later. Amazing!



Thanks again!


Great plugin - even better support
