Here is a quick guide to getting that set up:
1. Collecting Donations During Event Registration
If you want to give your guests the option to donate while they are buying tickets, follow these steps:
Go to Setup > Registration > Payment.
Scroll down to Manage Payments (view screenshot).
On the next screen, check the Accept Donations box and enter your donation details (view screenshot).
2. Collecting Donations Without Registration
If you’d like to collect donations independently of an event, you have two great options:
Option A: Use an Additional Form
You can create a dedicated donation page with its own unique link.
Step 1: Follow this guide to set up an additional form.
Step 2: Customize your link via Setup > Website > URL.
Step 3: Add a "Donate" button to your main site. In the Website Editor, hover over a section and use the teal plus (+) sign to add a button, then link it to your new form.
Option B: Create a "Donation Only" Ticket
If you want to keep everything on one page, set your registration type to Ticketed (under Setup > Registration) and create a specific ticket type labeled "Donation Only" priced at $0. This allows users to bypass the paid tickets while still contributing.
Tracking Your Donations
To see who has contributed, head over to Reports > Orders/Registration. Scroll to the right, and you’ll find the Donation Column with all the details (watch this quick clip).
