raisin - Double the Donation FAQs
Double the Donation is the industry-leading matching gifts automation solution for nonprofits and educational institutions to identify more matching gift revenue opportunities and drive more matches to completion. You’ll need a Double the Donation account to activate the matching gift functionality within this partner platform. Not a Double the Donation client? Schedule a demo at https://doublethedonation.com/demo-request/.
Step #1: In the General Setup of your raisin account, navigate to the Double the Donation tab under Integrations. Check the "Enable" box to enter your Public and Private API Keys.

Step #2: The first time you integrate with Double the Donation Matching on raisin, you’ll be prompted with two options to add Double the Donation to your Donations events:
-
[STRONGLY RECOMMENDED] To expedite setup, you can opt to integrate Double the Donation Matching across all live events on the Donations module by selecting “Yes, activate for all live events.” The system will find all live events and automatically apply the matching gift search tools to them.
-
Choose to activate on an individual event basis later by selecting, “No, I’ll activate manually.”
Congratulations! The company name streamlined search field will appear on your donation form, and the matching gift plugin will appear on the success page.
Step #3: Navigate to the "Donation Options" of your Donations events and select the second checkbox. Checking this checkbox allows your organization to take advantage of all of your automated outreach streams within Double the Donation Matching, resulting in more matching gift revenue for your organization.
This checkbox is unchecked by default, so ensure that you navigate to each of your Donations events and check it during your setup process.
Integrate Double the Donation Matching onto Pledge Pages
After integrating your matching module by following Step #1 above, you can add Double the Donation to your pledge pages.
Step #1: Navigate to your Pledge or Multi-Pledge event. Then, navigate to “Sponsorship Levels.” (Where suggested donation amounts are established.)
Step #2: Scroll to find the “Double the Donation - Double the Donation Matching” section. Then, check the box that says "Enable Corporate donation matching."
Q: I don’t have a Double the Donation account. How do I get one?
A: Visit https://doublethedonation.com/demo-request/ to request a demo! Make sure you mention that you use raisin in your demo request form.
Q: Can I customize gift-matching results by country or region?
A: Yes! Check out this support page to learn how to include or exclude companies based on region.
Q: What raisin modules can be integrated with Double the Donation Matching?
A: As of the initial release, Double the Donation Matching is only available for one-time and tribute donations on the raisin Donations module. Contact the raisin and Double the Donation teams to check in on plans to expand functionality soon.
Q: Can I add or remove the Double the Donation Matching functionality from individual forms?
A: To activate or deactivate the matching module in individual events, navigate to the "Donation Options" of the Donations event you wish to modify. Locate the "Double the Donation — Double the Donation Matching" section in the Other Settings section at the bottom of the page. Check the box labeled "Enable corporate donation matching for this event."
Q: Where else can I embed Double the Donation's plugin?
A: We recommend you create a dedicated matching gift page on your website to place matching gift information in the path of every website visitor, not just those already on your donation form. On this page, you can explain what matching gift programs are and provide donors with a chance to look up their employer’s program forms, guidelines, and instructions. Your dedicated matching gift page will become a useful resource to include in emails, newsletters, and direct messages.
To install Double the Donation’s matching gift search tool anywhere on your website, simply copy and paste the same Embed Code that you used before. Take a look at an example from the Cat Rescue Club:
