Participant Gifts

If gifts are received in offline methods (like by postal mail or dropped off at your offices) that support the fundraising efforts of specific participants, you can record them directly into the records of the participants.

You can accept one-time gift payments in cash or check, and promised (unconfirmed) and recurring gift payments if your site is enabled with a payment method that allows multiple transactions over time (like credit card and bank account withdrawal processing).

After gifts have been recorded, you can edit gift details to modify the gift amount, set a batch ID to group the gift with other gifts for reporting or monitoring, and change the recognition name that displays with the gift on lists throughout the event pages, You can also hide the gift amount or make the gift Anonymous on the lists.

For gifts recorded as unconfirmed (that is, you do not have the payment in hand), you can confirm them when the payment is received in your office. If gifts are duplicated or canceled by the donor, you can reject them to remove them from the Unconfirmed Gifts lists.

If you are entering a large number of gifts or confirmations at one time, you can set a batch ID for the group to monitor the transactions.

For information about sending receipts, refunding, or assigning soft credit for donations, refer to the Transactions documentation.
