View MoreWoocommerce Donation plugin
by albdesign
If you already run an online store, or want one on your charity site, the WooCommerce Donation Plugin takes donations through it. The basic functionality adds a donation as a regular product. The customer then adds this product to the shopping cart, pays for it, and doesn’t get an actual product in return. The other option is to add a donation field to the shopping cart, which would encourage customers to give a little extra on top of what they’re already paying for.
Donations of any size can be put in the field in the shopping cart, and the amount is then added to the total for the customer. On the back end you get reports separating donation income from ordinary product sales.
