Is there any reasons why Paypal payment services, for taking payments 
from a card, not working for TDF donations?

I really do not know what the advantage or dis-advantages of Paypal vs. 
other services are.

I really prefer to pay for things using Paypal instead of using my debit 
card online.  99% of the time, if the people do not take Paypal, I will 
not buy from them.  The only ones that are exceptions is my car 
insurance and cable/phone bill.
