There are a couple of ways to collect donations on your website: 1) using a DONATION ONLY ticket or 2) using an Additional Form
STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS - DONATION ONLY TICKET
Once you set up donations for your event, you can create a ticket type and name it Donation Only or Donation in Lieu of Attendance so guests can donate even when they are unable to attend your event. They will be able to enter their donation amount upon checkout.
1. Go to your Event Dashboard, then Setup > Registration > Setup under the Setup heading. Uncheck My Attendees May RSVP No/Not Attending, so that guests are unable to RSVP no to your event.
2. Click on the Tickets tab and click the Add New Ticket button.
3. Create a Donation Only / Donation in Lieu of Attendance ticket.
4. Under that Ticket Type, scroll down and click on Show Advanced Options. Under Maximum, change to 1. This will allow a dropdown menu with only “1” to appear at checkout.
5. To save, click “Save Now”.
6. Then, go to the Payments tab > scroll to Donations, click "Manage Donations" > check the box for Accept Donations to enable donations > then hit Update Donations to save it.
Below is where guests can enter their Donation Amount when they checkout:
