About this plugin
Legba Donate gives your organization a donation form that looks like your site, takes gifts by card, PayPal, cheque or transfer, thanks the donor and keeps a clean record of every gift. No commission is taken by the plugin, and there is no limit on campaigns, gifts or donors.
Campaigns
- As many campaigns as you want. Each one has its own page, text and image, and can be placed anywhere with a shortcode or the “Donation form” block.
- Suggested amounts, each with a short line that says what it makes possible (“Feeds a family for a week”).
- An amount selected at first, and a free amount with a minimum and a maximum.
- A goal with a progress bar, the amount raised, the number of gifts and the days left: show the ones you want.
- An end date, and automatic closing when the goal is reached, with your own closing message.
Payments
- Stripe: cards, Apple Pay and Google Pay on the secure page of Stripe. No card number touches your site.
- PayPal.
- Offline gifts: the donor promises a gift by cheque, Interac or bank transfer and receives your instructions; you mark the gift as received.
- Test mode with separate keys: try everything without moving real money.
- Donors can add the processing fees to their gift.
The form
- First name, last name and email, plus phone, postal address and company: each one hidden, optional or required.
- Anonymous gifts, a message box, and gifts in honour or in memory of someone.
- A consent checkbox with your own text.
- Your color, your rounded corners, your button text.
- Works without JavaScript, on phones, with a keyboard and with screen readers.
- Protection against robots: hidden trap field, time check and limit per visitor.
After the gift
- A thank-you screen with the summary, or the page of your choice.
- A thank-you email to the donor, with your own subject and text.
- An email to your team for each gift.
- A donor wall, a progress bar alone and a list of your open campaigns, as shortcodes.
Managing gifts
- List of gifts with filters by status, campaign, payment method and dates, and a search.
- The screen of a gift: status, private notes, thank-you email sent again.
