You are here: RE:Give
 
 

As a Charity, you need to do a lot with little.

RE:Give automates the fundraising process for both Charities and Donors

Here's how:



DONOR

  • Your donor gets a Free App on their iPhone/iPad/iPod [coming soon: BlackBerry, Android, Windows 7 Mobile]
  • They enter their information once [Name, Address, Phone, email].
  • They search for their favorite Charities by name, type or keyword, find you;
  • They decide to contribute $x to one of your funds, or unrestricted.
  • They can pay either by check or by credit card. [They can opt to save this information for future RE:Give]
  • They immediately get a receipt in their email as if it came from you.

CHARITY

  • The funds settle through your existing Merchant Gateway [QBMS, Authorize.net, PayPal, IATS. More being added as needed].
  • Funds are deposited in your same bank account in the same fashion as they are currently.
  • The transaction is automatically downloaded to your inhouse servers and posted to: 
    • Raisers Edge, where the personal details are recorded
    • General Ledger software (QuickBooks, Peachtree, Financial Edge) where the transaction details are recorded.


GETTING STARTED

  • Click here. In minutes, you can set up your charity by adding
    • Name, address, upload 501 (c) (3) certificate
    • Mission, Milestones, Programs/Funds
    • Your web properties including Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter pages and YouTube videos
    • Staff, Board of Directors with links to their Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter pages
    • The script and signature for your emailed receipts.
    • Merchant Account Gateway and your Account details. We will contact your Merchant Processor to complete the setup. Some Merchant Processors may require creation of an additional account since this is a mobile payments platform, while all other agreements still hold.
    • Your Raiser's Edge version. You can then download the installer, give the file location, and do a test sync. We can help with setup.
    • Your General Ledger version (QuickBooks/ Peachtree/ Raisers Edge/Fundware/Sage MIP). You can then download the installer, give the file location, and do a test sync. We can help with setup.
  • The next time some donor searches for charities and your criteria match, you will become visible in their device.
  • They can look you up right inside their device, add you to their favorites and make a donation in seconds. They instantly get emailed their receipt.

CONFIDENTIALITY/SECURITY

  • We are PCI-DSS compliant. [Compliance with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) is mandated by all the major credit card associations including: American Express, Diners Club, Discover, JCB, MasterCard Worldwide, Visa, Inc. and Visa Europe]
  • We use Secure Socket Layer encryption, which provides Bank Level Security for the pipe AND session key rotation to guarantee encryption of the "payload" itself.
  • We maintain only the customer registration data (Name, email, device ID) and data required for audit (transaction ID, Visa..0214, etc.)
  • Donors maintain their own information in their own device - no cookies anywhere.
  • Every half-hour, we automatically download all data to our RE:Give SQLite database inside your servers, and flush it from our web server.
