I'm looking for organizations that use Venmo/Paypal with Blackbaud Checkout? I would just like to learn what the experience has been like for you. Thanks!

    We use PayPal and were amazed at how many donors use it. I would definitely recommend offering it to your donors. Make sure to get the non-profit discount on fees.

    We implemented this a long time ago, so I am sure it is easier now, but it wasn't that bad back then. Blackbaud has a set of instructions to follow to get this up and running.

    At the time BB told me I could turn it on on each individual form, but it ended up being turned on everywhere. So just be prepared.

    Thanks,

    Phil

    We use it too, very few people use Venmo, but quite a few use ApplePay and PayPal on the mobile/S1300 form.

    Also have PayPal on the standard/Donation2 form, tons use it there as well.

    @Philip Nawrocki
    Donation2 lets ya select PayPal it on a per-form basis (checkbox in the Payment Type data element). Mobilepay is all-or-nothing for PayPal/Venmo/VisaPay, but will hide ApplePay unless browser sniffs iOS.
