Yeah, that would just confuse shoppers/patrons, because a gift certificate is typically something you give to someone else.
"Contribute" or "Tip Jar" would be more useful.
They have a feature where you can customize a button, but that requires having an image -- challenging for those of us who aren't artists. Plus I'm always afraid that if I try to do anything remotely fancy, even if someone else is pushing the keys, it'll cause the system to crash on me just because that happens so often with me and technology.
Hmm ... maybe it would be helpful for the Crowdfunding community to have a collection of freely available images for "tip jar" and "pass the hat" etc. that anyone could use. If artists or photographers want to share such, that would be cool. Then interested creators would have more resources for customizing their PayPal efforts.
