To ensure you can collect the information you need from supporters—no matter how they are contributing—your admin dashboard allows you to customize the checkout experience to ensure that you are collecting the information you need from each transaction.
Because Pledge It allows you to design and create a campaign that encompasses all of your fundraising needs, you may be collecting a range of contributions that include donations, registrations, sponsorships, auction payments, raffle entries, shop products, and more. What you choose to collect from a company purchasing a sponsorship may be different from what you choose to collect from someone registering to attend your event or someone who is simply making a donation. Each audience can have a curated checkout experience.
Below is a summary of Pledge It's different checkout experiences and their relevant campaign types.
Quick Give
Quick Give is a dedicated donation checkout experience where supporters are guided through a series of simple questions, creating a conversational and engaging donation process. Supporters launch Quick Give by clicking the primary donation call-to-action featured throughout your campaign (the "Donate" button) from your campaign page, team pages, fundraiser pages, live display QR code, or Donation Form.
Within the Quick Give checkout experience, you are able to customize:
Suggested giving levels
Donor contact info collected
Custom questions
Fee settings
Donation Receipt
Note: Quick Give is available by default on any campaign you create on Pledge It. This includes Donation Forms and all campaign types including In-Person Event, P2P In-Person Event, Crowdfunding, Virtual Challenge, and Peer-to-Peer.
GivePoint
The GivePoint checkout experience allows for multiple types of contributions to be combined into a single transaction with one receipt. For supporters, this makes giving to your organization as easy as clicking "add to cart." GivePoint powers two dedicated checkout experiences: one public and one for internal use.
GivePoint Cart: A supporter-facing checkout experience that allows your supporters to bundle together their purchase of tickets, shop products, raffle entries, and a one-time donation into a single transaction from your campaign page.
GivePoint Terminal: An admin-facing checkout solution that allows you to accept payments in person, by mail, and by phone directly from your dashboard for tickets, shop products, raffle entries, donations, winning live auction bids, and misc. items.
Within the GivePoint checkout experience, you are able to customize:
Order buyer contact info collected
Participant contact info collected (if registration is applicable)
Custom questions for participants being registered (if registration is applicable)
