Portuguese Wikipedia: 2 donations, $ 30,00

Because it's hard for Brazilians to donate via PayPal or credit card.

Always remember that donations schemes are not one-size-fits-all.



It's not hard for Brazilians to donate via PayPal or credit card. It's as easy as someone in the USA. I donated today (I probably clicked on the English page, though) via PayPal.


Or Brazilians just hate Jimmy Wales, or...

It's a bit preemptive to draw a conclusion like that.


Not preemptive, it's slow as hell to link a paypal account to your bank account and few people use credit cards because of the ridiculous interest rates.

I've been through this a lot before a couple of freelancer jobs filled my paypal account.
