Custom Donations - Double the Donations FAQs
Q: I don’t have a Double the Donation Matching account. How do I get one?
A: Visit https://doublethedonation.com/demo-request/ to request a demo! Make sure you mention that you use Custom Donations in your demo request form.
Q: I'm an existing Double the Donation Matching client. Where do I find my credentials?
A: Login to your matching module at https://doublethedonation.com/members/login/ Navigate to "Settings" and then "API Keys."
Q: Where can I embed the Double the Donation 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 matching gift programs and give donors 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 Embed Code from your matching module onto the desired page. Take a look at an example from the Cat Rescue Club:
