PayPal does not charge any fee for "personal" transfers of funds, and only skims the percentage off of credit/debit card transactions that are done outside of "personal" transfers.
PayPal is fast, secure, and there is the added bonus of using them at no cost to either payor or recipient to fund a gun-positive issue via an anti-gun organization.
And, no, using the account number for an e-bank transaction will not work. The payment has to be made to the Credit Union, and the account number would be inserted just as a billing account number. I am not aware of financial institutions accepting fund transfers in such a manner. They need an account name, account number and all the rest of the bells & whistles.
The person designated as the PayPal recipient merely sweeps up the moneys in the PayPal account and transfers them into the trust fund account which was designated to PayPal as a bank account.
