Hi Everybody!
We're dissatisfied with our current custom platform for online giving (bsomusic.org/giving/donate/).
We're looking for a relatively plug-n-play solution for online gifts that:
Honestly, except for the Tessitura integration, Paypal seems to offer a strong solution.
Could you share your own online gift processing vendor and pros/cons?
PS: If we were able to identify even a temporary solution for #GivingTuesday that would already be a huge help! Thanks for your suggestions!!
Hi Louis,
It's not plug and play (and certainly not available by Giving Tuesday) but I've been very happy with Stripe, a large payment processor that is behind a lot of non-arts charity forms like charity water. Their system is excellent and we've put systems in place to efficiently match up Tessitura IDs and import gifts. You can see our form here: https://seattlesymphony.org/donate.
It could be that API integration is possible - we just implemented this form a few months ago and haven't taken further steps, but are also finding our current system very manageable.
Best,Megan
Thank you Megan,
