Accept simple payments online
The
donations element is the quickest way to accept a payment or
contribution to your organization. Integration with Paypal provides
secure payment processing as well as multiple ways for your users to
pay and for you to collect your funds.
Set your amount or leave it open
Use the optional information fields to create a name and ID number for your donation (this can help with your back-end reporting). Also, specify an amount for a donation or leave it blank to allow the user to specify the amount they want to give.
Shipping and other information
If something needs to be shipped back to the user upon payment, you can require shipping information at checkout. You can also set an additional comment box so that a donor can leave additional feedback or instructions with their contribution.
Integration with PayPal
You don't have to worry about a merchant account or payment gateways. We handle everything through integration with PayPal, one of the web's most trusted and easy to use payment processors.
The PayPal checkout system allows the donor to pay with credit cards or even with their checking account. A small fee will be deducted from the contribution to pay for PayPal's services.
