Give Manual Donations Addon – Create Donations Directly in Your WordPress Dashboard

The Give Manual Donations addon allows you to easily create donations directly in your WordPress dashboard. With this addon, you can create manual donations that can be attached to a specific donor or create a new donor during the donation creation process. This feature is designed to help you reconcile your records, but it does not actually charge the donor at the payment gateway.

Creating manual donations is a breeze with the Give Manual Donations addon. Simply fill out a simple form and click submit. Each field is intuitive and necessary for your GiveWP Donations Reports and Donor records to accurately reflect the new donation.

Take a look at the animation above to see how easy it is to create manual donations using this addon. You can assign the donation to any of your current donors or add a new donor. It gives you the flexibility to choose any payment gateway, regardless of whether it’s activated live or not. You can also choose the date of the donation, whether in the past or future, and whether to send donor and/or admin email notifications upon completion.

Highlights:

  • Effortlessly create manual donations directly in your WordPress dashboard
  • Attach donations to specific donors or create new donors
  • Reconcile records between payment gateway and your site
  • Intuitive form with easy point-and-click functionality
  • Flexibility to choose payment gateway and donation date
  • Option to send donor and/or admin email notifications
  • Support for recurring donations
  • Integration with GiveWP Reports, Transactions, and Logs

The Give Manual Donations addon is just one of the many premium addons available from GiveWP. By combining this addon with other premium addons, you can enhance your fundraising efforts and raise more money. As an alternative to traditional plugin updates, you can also update your items via the EffectIO Dashboard, where they come pre-activated with GPL code and premium support from EffectIO. Don’t miss out on our super deals, offering discounts ranging from 30% to 90% off.
