Planning Center Giving customers can now join the ranks of UNICEF, the American Red Cross, charity: water and many other nonprofits in supporting Apple Pay for donations.
Apple Pay on iPhone or iPad
All your donors will need to do is tap the familiar Apple Pay button, scan their thumb on their phone, and that's it. A record of the donation will appear in their Wallet app, just as it would if they had used Apple Pay at a retail location. Giving will issue them a receipt via email and the donation will appear in their donor history, just like any other donation.
Apple Pay on Desktop
If your donors like to give on their desktop, the new Apple Pay button will also work with Safari. It's the same, simple process: select Apple Pay and then verify the transaction on their phone.
Enabling Apple Pay
Apple has established an application process for nonprofits who wish to accept donations using Apple Pay. Once your organization has been approved by Apple, you'll need to enable Apple Pay within Planning Center Giving. Learn more about the process here.
We hope your donors enjoy using Apple Pay and that your organization benefits from this addition.
Sincerely,
~ Team Giving
