Paypal pre-approval limit needed

Hello,

I signed up to sponsor a site and got a message that I have been pre-approved for a payment on Paypal. But there is no limit on the transaction amount! What prevents someone from pulling a huge amount out of my account? Could you please put a limit on these transactions for my peace of mind?

Thanks,

A donor

Hello Jonathan,

You set the limit when you chose your amount !

I just verified your support's status and I can guarantee that (if and only if the project is a success) you will only be charged with the exact amount that you chose !

It is my understanding that Paypal allows you to set a limit on pre-approved payments. That limit could automatically be set to the promised payment amount. When I've set up pre-approved payments I've seen a limit associated with that payment when I log into Paypal. That's very comforting to see as a new Ulule member, so I think you should do that for the piece of minds of the newbies :).

Thanks
