Paypal was the main method used to collect membership dues until 2019.

If you are or were making membership dues payments using PayPal, you can stop them at any time, yourself, without assistance. For more information, see Quit.

Many members are still using PayPal to pay their dues, but new membership and memberships that were paused, suspended or deactivated for any reason should be restarted using the Wild Apricot member management system with payments through whatever is the current payment processor. As of February 2019, that payment processor was Stripe. Recurring payments can be enabled from your member account, by logging in at membership.pumpingstationone.org, and saving a credit or debit card. Some members may have a debit card issued to them through PayPal, which can be used with Stripe, but does not appear on PS1's PayPal statement; it is dealt with like any other credit or debit card.

If you decide to change membership levels, you must stop PayPal payments and begin making new payments with a credit or debit card, using Stripe.

-== By Subscription Only ==
+If you are or were making membership dues payments using PayPal, you can stop them at any time, yourself, without assistance. For more information, see [[Quit]].
-Occasionally prospective members wish to make one off payments to PS:One instead of subscribing as a member. We find that this has a tendency to get us perceived as a tool rental shop, and that is not what the members of PS:One are interested in being. This is why we don't accept one off payments as membership dues.

-Many members opt to get reimbursed for purchases made on behalf of PS:One via their PayPal account. This has the advantage of being fast, and not requiring that the reimburser and reimbursee be in the same space at the same time.
-== Refunds ==
-There is no clear rule on how refunds to membership dues work.
-Error'd payments are typically refunded quickly.
-== Payment Suspended Emails ==
-Don't Panic: We get suspended payment notifications from PayPal all the time.
-PayPal recently changed the text of the email to the member to include this line:
-<pre>Pumping Station One: NFP has suspended your automatic payments. Contact Pumping Station One: NFP for more details or to reactivate your payments.</pre>
-This line in the email has lead a couple people to believe they were being kicked out or something similar. This is not the case.
-Generally, What happens is either you didn't have enough in your account, an eCheck failed to clear, or most frequently: Your credit card on record with PayPal has expired.
