    On a free can use a Paypal Button with a Donate now caption to serve your purpose. The button will then direct to the Paypal payment screen. If you are subscribed to the Premium or Business Plan, you can then use the “Simple Payments” feature to help you with it.
    You can learn more about it in these Support Documents:

    To know the exact followers stats just go to ––
    MySites->Stats->Insights.
    Scroll down to Total Followers. You will have the details of the followers of your blog. You can learn more about it here:

    Thanks!

    pavanraheja thank you BUT when I paste my code (for PayPal) into my widgets’ area as it looks ok but when I am pressing save , the “Donate” button disappears!! I have tried to just paste the code (and not as they said in the link) and again I have the same issue….

    Hi again,

    Sincere apologies for the delayed reply. Make sure you use the “Text Widget” as described in the documentation. Also, just make sure you follow the instructions correctly to get the Paypal Button Code:

    Where did you try to set up the Donate button Sidebar/Footer widget? It’d be good if you could set up the button one more time and I could test it from my end.

    Hope to hear soon, would be happy to assist you further.
    Thanks!

    I think I was paste the wrong code, the last time… the tutorial says the code from the email tab… ;) Anyway, I’ve added the button to the footer’s area… I will appreciate if you will check it too:)

    Hi again,

    That seems to be the catch! :)
    Yeah, it appears to be working fine, it leads me the Paypal page.

    Glad to know it’s in place, do let me know if I can help you with anything else.
    Happy Blogging! :)
