Actually, checking account info is *safer*, for a variety of reasons. There's verification and standarized reporting tools that ensures delivery of funds into your account. For technical reasons, this isn't true with PayPal. All Dawdle can see is that we've sent funds out; we can't guarantee that you actually received the funds.
It's impossible for Dawdle, even with your checking account information, to take money out of your account (or anyone else). Remember, we're not asking for anything that other sites, such as Amazon or Half, don't ask for. We're a TRUSTe licensee and have Verisign's Extended Validation certificate, so I can say with confidence that no one is more secure than we are.
That said, we're looking into adding PayPal - enough people have asked for PayPal that we're trying to find a way to add it that still works for everyone and Dawdle can ensure payment to your account. I can't guarantee that we'll be able to work through the certainty of payment issue, but we're working with them to see what we can do and what the technical requirements are.
Wow, that was long-winded. Oh well. At least no one can say we're not listening.
