Troop 8 Treasurer, Ben Steves, observed that the Troop pays a significant fee to PayPal especially for higher priced outings, like summer camps, high adventure, etc., He worked with the bank to enable Zelle payments to the troop account - there is no fee charged to you (payer) or to Troop 8 (payee).
