Recently a donor wanted to add an additional amount to pay their processing fee. This could assist our organizations in saving money and making sure that 100% of the donors money is able to be utilized. Network For Good has this option in their system. I would suggest that the donation form could automatically asked a donor if they would like to add an additional amount to cover the processing fees. This would be a benefit to everyone!!!!!
When I calculate 2.57% of the individuals donation and they added this amount, it was a minimal amount and we got 100% of the intended donation. Helping smaller organizations is key to eTapestry.
Blackbaud would still be paid their transaction fees and organizations would benefit more!
Why is this taking 5 years to create? Please add this option
This is something that most other CRM's are offering. Please add this capability to our system and help us further our mission. Much appreciated!
Can anyone provide a link to an example of how they worded this on their giving pages?
I agree 100%! Last year this function provided us 25% coverage for the fees.
Absolutely!! Thank you for doing this. Several other organizations have this option and our donors would definitely appreciate knowing that they can cover this cost for us!
