I went to setup a monthly donation of $25 and Paypal wants a 5%+ fee for every payment, which seems unreasonable. Is there an email address I can send through Paypal as a "Friends and Family" deal, where Paypal won't charge any fee? This would be non-refundable on my end as Paypal has no scam protection, etc... but I don't need that for paying you guys money.

Not too sure, you could see if there's other options that suit you via the OpenCollective support. https://docs.opencollective.com/help/financial-contributors/payments

Thank you for considering to help though. Appreciated

That one we can't do as it goes against EA modding guidelines
