Merged idea

This idea has been merged into another idea. To comment or vote on this idea, please visit ETAP-I-701 Providing option for donor to cover processing fees.

On DIY form for donations, add option to donors to cover processing fees. Merged

Some donors would like to accept the burden of underwriting the credit card/debit card processing fees of their contributions, and we would like to give them that option :). Just a Yes or No button needed, and a calculation that would add what the fee would be and what their final total would be.

    We now offer donor cover and Complete Cover options. For more information, please see our Blackbaud Payment Processing Fees help documentation.

    I responded to Ellen directly, but wanted to make sure everyone is aware of my response. We have developed some new functionality around this type of request. We are getting ready to enter an Early Adopter Phase for this functionality and if you would like to learn more or request to be involved in the EAP, visit this link... https://community.blackbaud.com/blogs/2/7897

    Please provide an update on the status of adding this option. We are now at the end of Sept 2021 ... My board has asked for this for years and if it is not completed this year they are requesting we look into another service since it is offered by almost all other competitors.

    And one more thing...only 9 votes, but I'm sure many other organizations would like this. It would be a selling feature to your product. Does RasiersEdge offer?

    This is great idea! And e-Tap should developed this and add it as an option because other platforms already have it. We ran over a million dollars last year through MobileCause because they do offer it. You are missing out Blackbaud!

    Donor cover of the Blackbaud transactions fees is a PRIORITY for non-profits. When will this functionality be incorporated into the DIY forms?

    Yes! This would be very beneficial!
