Gifty Entry is a tool designed to help you enter gifts efficiently. It has features that provide you with the convenience of entering both individual single gifts and batches of gifts with great speed, accuracy, and flexibility.

Single Gift Entry

Batch Gift Entry - PosiGive

The Gift Entry function is incredibly versatile, allowing you to enter one-time donations or recurring donations effortlessly. With a one-time gift entry, you can process a gift once, while a recurring gift entry allows you to process a donation as an ongoing contribution to your organization. Moreover, you can customize your recurring gift entries by selecting between open-ended or fixed-length options to suit your organisation's needs.

Batch Gift Entry will help you process gift entries in a group at once. You can also customize the number of gift counts and batch value of your batch entry. However, please note that you must enter gift entries with the same payment method.

Whenever a donor makes a gift, two types of transactions can be created: Gift Transactions and Gift Commitments.

Gift Transactions are created automatically whenever a gift entry or batch gift entry is processed. These transactions are used to document one-time gifts and provide a record of the donor's giving history.

Gift Commitments, on the other hand, are used to document recurring donations. When a donor signs up for a recurring gift, a Gift Commitment is created to document their commitment to give regularly.

By creating both Gift Transactions and Gift Commitments, organizations can accurately track their fundraising efforts and provide donors with accurate records of their giving history.

Here is the sample record of a successful Gift Entry:

...

  • Start Date displays the start date if the donation is recurring.

  • Transaction Period specifies the duration of each payment cycle used by transaction interval. Example: Monthly, Yearly

  • Transaction Day specifies day of the month that the recurring donation will be processed on.

  •   End Date specifies the end date of the recurring donation.

  • Transaction interval displays the number of transactions per transaction period.
