Taking donations

To get ready

  1. Open Settings → Modules and check that Payment account shows Stripe as connected.

To see and record gifts

  1. Open Give → Gifts. Online gifts appear here on their own.
  2. To add a gift made another way, select Record a gift.
  3. Under Donor, search your contacts or type an email. Add the amount under Allocation.
  4. Set Public naming, Frequency and Dates if needed.
  5. Select Record gift, then Yes, record it.

Good to know

  • Online gifts can be one time or monthly.
  • A gift is marked received only when Stripe confirms the payment.
  • A donor is only named in public if they chose that. Otherwise they're Anonymous.
  • Select Export to download the list as a CSV.
