Payment for Aliyah by Credit Card

Question

Hello Rabbi, if someone bought an aliyah or donated to the synagogue, for example, 100 shekels and wants to pay by credit card, is it allowed? After all, the credit card company charges fees, and ultimately the synagogue does not receive the full amount. Thank you very much.

Answer

Hello,
Since this is currently a common way to donate, the commitment is made with this in mind.
