An acceptor is someone or something that accepts—receives, takes in, or agrees to something offered.

In chemistry and physics, an acceptor is an atom or molecule that receives electrons, protons, or other particles from a donor.

In electronics, an acceptor is an impurity added to a semiconductor to create positive charge carriers.

In law and finance, an acceptor is the party who accepts a bill of exchange or draft, becoming obligated to pay it.
