Questions: Why doesn't CP accept PayPal? / Can we get paid our commission via PayPal?

Answers: CafePress, at one time, did offer PayPal as a method of customer payment.

However, there had been several difficulties with their fee system and in the end it was decided that the increased expenses outweighed the benefits. Many of the largest online retailers have also dropped PayPal as a payment feature as it is more geared toward personal, and small businesses for online exchanges.

Fred Durham - CEO and Co-Founder of CafePress has said this regarding the use of PayPal: "We had paypal, and it was a real xxxx to deal with. We did not see any, as in zero, sales differences - so people with paypal on net had cards to use too. We may try again, but have no evidence that this is the biggest thing to help you sell more."

Regarding Commissions paid via PayPal:

CafePress has heard the many requests of US and International shopowners regarding the use of PayPal to receive commission checks.

This option is under review and consideration. No date or progress update has been given.
