Troops Using Venmo or PayPal for Cookie Payments
|
Follow these guidelines if your troop uses Venmo or PayPal for accepting payments during cookie season:
|
|
-
The account must be linked to the Council’s Federal Tax ID and the troop’s bank account.
-
The account may not be linked to a volunteer's or parent's Social Security number.
-
Any payments accepted via Venmo or PayPal (excluding Digital Cookie transactions) must be marked as a “Friends and Family” transaction.
-
If $5,000 or more is collected in a personal Venmo or PayPal account, it will result in tax implications for the account owner.
|
|
New this year: Digital Cookie will accept Venmo and Paypal as forms of payment in the app for customers purchasing cookies. With this new feature, troops shouldn’t need to create their own accounts.
