Summary

Donations is a powerful feature which allows a merchant to collect funds on behalf of a non-profit of their choice, directly from the terminal. If the merchant is a non-profit themselves then this can generate hundreds or even thousands in additional revenue each month.

Availability

Some features, like Donations, are available on the PayFac but may not be available to all Brands. This may be due to additional integration work that might be required and/or other factors such as customer demand, dev priorities, or more. In this case, see the table below for which brands have access to this feature as of this moment. If a brand or product is not listed below, then it does not have the ability to do donations.

Enabling Donations

Untitled

Donations may not be enabled by default for all merchants. Some brands, like ThriftCart, may have merchants that use it more heavily in which case we can enable it for everyone by default. Once enabled, it can be turned ON/OFF on the Profile page similar to other features such as Tips or Receipt Printing.

The logo, prompt, and donation type can all be customized.

<aside> πŸ’‘ Note: Depending on the integration type, these settings maybe preset by the POS.
