About Using PayPal

Why We Are Using PayPal. Our chapter has traditionally accepted meeting reservations without payment first. But did you know that a few people reserve and then do not attend? Ouch! This causes us to lose money as we already reserved the dinner place and have to pay for it. So now we will use PayPal to help resolve our reservation issue. And Members who register with PayPal will get a discounted rate (see the Price List on the Meetings page).

I Have a PayPal Account. You probably know the drill. You simply click the appropriate Pay Now button, PayPal will open the shopping cart. You check out, log in, and complete your payment.

I Do Not Have a PayPal Account. PayPal makes it very simple to complete your reservation using your credit card. PayPal is a secured site, used world-wide (more about PayPal security). Here is what to expect:

1. Click the Pay Now button from our Meetings page next to the rate that applies to you (Member, Non-Member, Meeting Only). PayPal will open in a new browser window and display your item in a shopping cart.

2. Click Secure Checkout when you are ready to complete your transaction. You can also change the number of reservations if you are paying for more than one person.

3. Read the PayPal screen and notice where to click if you do not have an account.

4. Follow the PayPal instructions and complete your purchase. At the end, PayPal will prompt you with the option to sign up for an account so you do not have to re-enter your information next time. A PayPal Personal account is free. You will return to the main web site when you finish.

Not comfortable with PayPal? PayPal will request your address, phone, credit card, and email. We understand if you do not want to use this payment system. Please come to our meeting anyway; we want to visit with you. Having no reservation simply means that you pay the full price; and that will help us pay the meeting cost.
