Donations

The Donations module turns your organization into a fundraising platform. Create campaigns with public pages, track progress toward goals, collect donor messages, and embed donation widgets on any website — all backed by Stripe.

​

Donations vs. fees

Many organizations use both: fees for membership dues, donations for fundraising on top.

Creating a donation campaign

​

Prices & options

Each donation campaign can have preset price tiers and product options. The Prices & Options tab manages both.

​

Price tiers

Create suggested donation amounts that appear as quick-select buttons on the public page: One tier is marked as the Default price — it’s pre-selected when the page loads. You can also enable custom price value so donors can type any amount (with optional min/max).

​

A/B testing

Toggle Pricing A/B Testing to experiment with different price tier configurations. Each variation shows a different set of preset amounts to donors, and Orgo tracks performance metrics per variation so you can see what works. Each variation tracks:

• Total revenue collected through that variation
• Average donation amount
• Transaction count (number of completed donations)

In this example, Variation A (lower tiers) drives more conversions (18 vs. 12), while Variation B (higher tiers) produces a higher average donation ($1,083 vs.$592). Use these insights to optimize your pricing strategy.

​

Product options

Add optional choices for donors — like designating their gift to a specific program, selecting a thank-you gift tier, or choosing which project to support.

​

Landing page

The Landing page tab controls how your public donation page looks and feels. A live preview updates as you make changes.

​

Hero media

​

Appearance

​

Campaign content

Write a compelling description explaining what the money funds and why it matters. The description supports rich text and appears below the hero section. You can also set a custom thank you message shown after a successful donation.

---

​

The public donation page

Each campaign gets a shareable URL. Enable External visibility to let anyone donate — no login required. The public page combines everything you’ve configured:

• Hero image or video at the top
• Progress bar showing amount raised vs. goal
• Donation count and total raised
• Campaign description with your story
• Price tier buttons for quick selection
• Custom amount input (if enabled)
• One-time or monthly toggle
• Donor comments section (if enabled)
• Recent and top donors (if enabled)
• Payment form powered by Stripe

​

Donor experience

1. Donor opens the campaign link
2. Selects a preset amount or enters a custom one
3. Chooses one-time or monthly
4. Enters name, email, and optionally a message
5. Pays via Stripe (cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, bank transfers)
6. Sees your custom thank-you message
7. Receives a confirmation email

​

Confidentiality

Enable confidentiality to let donors give anonymously. Their name won’t appear on the public donor list — it shows as “Anonymous” instead.

​

Local center selection

Enable local center option to let donors choose which branch or chapter receives their gift. This is useful for federated organizations where donors want to support their local unit.

---

​

Donor comments (words of support)

When the comment section is enabled, donors can leave a message with their gift. These messages create powerful social proof on your public page.

​

Moderation workflow

All donor comments go through moderation before appearing publicly: Filter comments by status and use the Refresh button to check for new ones. Approved comments appear on the public page with the donor’s name (or “Anonymous”) and their message.

---

​

Donation widgets

Embed donation forms directly on your website or any external page. The Widgets tab lets you create and manage embeddable donation widgets.

​

Widget types

​

Widget configuration

Each widget has its own set of options:

​

Widget analytics

Each widget tracks its own performance:

• Total donations and revenue
• One-time donations and revenue
• Recurring subscriptions and revenue

This lets you compare which widget placement drives the most donations.

​

Embedding on your site

Click Configure Widget to get the embed code. Paste it into your website’s HTML — the widget handles everything from amount selection to Stripe checkout.

---

​

Goal tracking

Set a fundraising target and donors see a live progress bar on the public page. The progress bar shows:

• Amount raised vs. goal (e.g., “$23,650 of$35,000”)
• Number of donations
• Percentage complete with visual fill

When you hit 100%, the bar fills completely — but donations don’t stop. Donors can still give beyond the goal.

---

​

Payments & tracking

The Payments view shows every donation with full details. Filter by date range, amount, donor name, payment type (one-time vs. recurring), or local center.

​

Stats

The Stats tab shows donation trends over time with a payments chart and all-time totals.

​

Export

Export donation data as CSV for:

• Accounting and bookkeeping
• Tax receipt generation
• Donor acknowledgment letters
• Grant reporting

---

​

Covering processing fees

Donors can optionally cover Stripe’s processing fees so 100% of their intended amount goes to your organization. When enabled, the checkout shows the fee amount and lets the donor add it to their total. Processing fee formula: (amount x 2.9%) + fixed fee (varies by currency).

---

​

Supported currencies

Donations support 19 currencies: USD, EUR, GBP, CAD, AUD, CHF, DKK, NOK, SEK, PLN, CZK, HUF, BGN, RON, HRK, JPY, MXN, SGD, HKD The currency is set per product and determines the payment processing.
