    I'm going to be setting up a donation option on some sites I'm building and I'm wondering how it works because I've never done it before.

    If you use a personal account to accept the donations are there any fees? Can you accept credit cards for donations?

    Or is it just better to use a business account to accept donations?

    You can only accept donations in premier/biz account.

    You can accept via business account. There are a few plugins at CMS like WP that allows donation made in a better format. See this blog for example. It uses a Jar Plugin for Wp. See the bottom right sidebar.:)

    Since you can only use a Premier or Business account to receive Donations, you can of course accept credit card payments for that. A Personal account would not work.
