Donations without creditcard

Greetings,

I noticed that the only option for payment for donations is by creditcard.

That is very American, but in the EU, a creditcard is a card which you pay 20-30 euros per year for, but don’t need for anything at all and registers this as a debt (at least in my country), which is unwanted unless you need debt or travel outside of Europe.

For EU costumers, a different option for payment could be used. Paypal charges a fee, so it is probably not the preferred option, but at least we people without a CC could donate. Direct bank transfer is also an option.

Just a thought.

Just to clarify, if I take a creditcard, it’s registered as a 1k loan.

It’s not about the fee for the creditcard, but I prefer to be debt free and have a clean slate for a mortgage etc. Just having a creditcard, can be a downside to many people in the EU.
