- and more.

* I've bought various things to aid in the development of MCNR, such as new hard drives, a new laptop, and software.

Protect Yourself From Scams
Please read this annoucement regarding donator scams:
https://mikescnr.com/forum/index.php/topic,12258.msg58536.html#msg58536

How To Donate
For now only PayPal donations are accepted. It is not viable for us to set up any other donation methods as 99% of players can use PayPal.

Click the PayPal donate button below to donate, after reading the rest of this post.

Once you have donated, read the post below for instructions on how to verify your donation.
Failure to follow the process correctly means your donation will not be verified.


Donations MUST be in GBP (Great British Pounds) and no other currency.
If you donate in another currency, PayPal will charge us fees. Your donation will only be verified as the value received in GBP after fees.

Terms and Conditions
By donating to MCNR, you confirm you've read and agreed to the below Terms and Conditions. Failure to adhere to these may result in your donation not being verified, or benefits/rewards being revoked, or even a ban.

  • The Donation Verification Form MUST be submitted after donating. The information provided in the form must be complete and accurate. Failure to do so may result in a donation not being verified.
  • Donation verification may take up to 48 hours. Donators will be notified of this. If your donation is not verified within 48 hours you should email [email protected] for help.
  • We reserve the right to deny/revoke/reverse donator rewards/benefits for invalid or reversed donations (e.g. chargebacks) or any other reason deemed fit.
  • Donation rewards/benefits cannot be transferred to another player/account.
    If a donator is unable to access their rewards or benefits (e.g. banned) that is not reason for a refund or transfer of rewards/benefits.
  • Donations are strictly non-refundable under any circumstances.
  • Donations will not be verified while they are 'on hold' with PayPal. The 48 hour verification timeframe starts once funds are released.
  • Players that abuse their donator benefits (e.g. spamming colored chat) may have said benefits or the entire donator status and all other benefits removed. A refund will not be issued in this case.
  • Donator rewards/benefits are subject to availability. If you're unable to use all your house slots because there are no properties for sale, it is what it is.
  • All donations must be in Great British Pounds (GBP - £). Donations in other currencies will incur fees from PayPal. Your donation will only be verified against the amount received.
  • - We reserve the right to remove or change donator features in future script updates. Donators will likely be given notice of this. There may be some sort of compensation or replacement reward, but this is not guaranteed.
  • Future donator rewards which are added to the script will likely be awarded retrospectively to past/existing donators, however this is not a guarantee.
  • If a donation is disputed or charged back etc. we may ban the donator's account(s) and/or claim back the donation reward(s) and compensation at our discretion. If you have an issue, contact Mike or [email protected], do not open a dispute with PayPal.
  • From time to time, we may initiate a Stats Reset on MCNR. This means all player accounts will have their stats reset, including money, score, vehicles, properties and so on. When this happens, past donation rewards (cash and vehicle tokens) will be reissued.

GDPR / Data Protection Act
For all donations we receive, we log the email address the donation came from, and that player's in-game account ID/name, forum ID/name, and Discord ID. This information is stored securely and only accessible by Mike. We do not log any credit card details etc. (these are not provided by PayPal). If you wish us to remove this information to comply with GDPR/Data Protection Act 2018 please contact Mike and this request can take up to 48 hours. We will also have to revoke your donator status in-game/forums/Discord.

Sending a donation to MCNR confirms you have read, understood, and agreed to these terms and conditions in full.

Security
- Only Mike will contact you regarding a donation, either via email ([email protected]) or Discord DM (@mp2).
- Staff will never ask for your password or other security info. Report any such incident to the Management team or Mike directly.

Donation Gifting
If you are donating on behalf of another player, each player's gift donation must be submitted in the form separately.

For example, if you wish to donate £15 and give £5 as a gift to 3 players, donate £15 through PayPal, but fill out the form below 3 diferent times. Failure to do so may invalidate the donation and result in it not being verified correctly.

DONATE NOW
Click here to donate via PayPal:


REMEMBER: Once you have donated, please fill out the donation verification form in the reply post below.
FAILURE TO DO SO WILL RESULT IN A DONATION NOT BEING VERIFIED.
If the donation verification form is not submitted within 48 hours of a transaction, it might not be verified correctly if at all, so please do it immediately after donating.

If you have donated, thank you very much.

In order for us to verify your donation, please fill out the below form.

IMPORTANT: Please ensure the form is filled out completely and accurately. Failure to provide accurate information may result in us being unable to verify the donation. We do not give refunds because the form was filled out incorrectly.

Please read the form carefully and double-check your answers.


If you cannot see this form, you may access it directly here: https://forms.gle/FRKZ7xA2FMgaAFkdA

NOTE: It can take up to 24 hours for donations to be processed. Please do not enquire about your donation until this time has passed.
It may take a little longer for your forum Donator rank to be set.
You will automatically be given the 'Donator' role on Discord so long as your account is verified and linked to your in-game account (see guidance here).

Thank you!

I'm not 100% familar with how PayPal works in that sense, but from what I understand they will charge you a fee to convert it into GBP. You just need to make sure you select GBP and then enter the amount when you donate.

It instantly changes currency, before donating to the server.

@Mike how do I get PayPal transaction ID?
I just need to know the e-mail you donated from. The e-mail you use here, the same as you put in the form, I have no donation from that e-mail.

is it possible to send donations differently in addition to paypal? for example, a paysafe card for PLN 30 (i.e. about 5 gbp) because I do not have a bank card and a paypal account
5 gbp its 26,26 pln

At the moment only Paypal is supported, in the future other payments may be considered but for now, it will remain only Paypal.

to what I know, paypal is the only method till now and it's banned in pak. So either u can ask @denim @Vippy or @stacJ how they donated because they are also from pak. Or u can ask some1 in-game whom you trust. They can donate for you and maybe you can pay them via other sources

Ahm, Is there any way like the server owner gives me his bank account details and I directly send the money to his bank account; I mean everyone has a bank account now a days. Kindly let me know as soon as possible.

I tried donating 15GBP but it got declined. Palestine is not recognized over PayPal. I wish you could add an alternative way to donate. Thank you very much!

PayPal is, and likely always will be, the only way to donate.

If it's not supported, you could send the money to a friend in another country and have them donate for you perhaps? It's not worth me setting up a new payment method for the <1% of players that live in countries that for some reason don't support PayPal..

You will receive all donator features if you donate 10£ or more, not euros - You will get all available donator features, and any upcoming features Mike may decide to add in the future.  Please properly read the information about donating,  so you are aware of what features you will get and what features are upcoming/planned possible features for the future.

Currently, donations are only accepted in £, so if you donate 10euro it needs to be equal to 10£ to get the full benefits.
