Learn more on how to add call in or one-time donations to your Campaign in this guide.
Running a fundraising Campaign can bring out a generous heart in many donors. It’s always a nice surprise when people call your organization to make a donation. If you’re running an online Campaign through DoJiggy, you may want to add that phone donation to the Campaign to contribute to its overall success. For your convenience, we’ve added a way for you to charge the credit cards of anyone who wishes to make an external donation through your DoJiggy Campaign so that it will be included in the total amount raised on your fundraiser.
In other cases, a donor may wish to contribute to a fundraiser without participating in an A-thon, bidding on an auction item, or otherwise making a donation in an amount that could vary. Allowing the option to call in or contribute in person with a one-time donation offers a level of flexibility many donors will appreciate, and it could also generate more funds for your Campaign. The one-time donation will be added to the Campaign, increase the amount raised, and will be included in the “view donations” report for the Campaign. Learn more here about how to send your donor a receipt.
Charge a donor’s credit card to include their donation in your Campaign
- Go to Campaigns in the left menu.
- If you have chosen list view, click on the Title of your Campaign. If you have chosen grid view, click on the Campaign image.

Good to know
- This option can only be used for one-time donations only. For example, you can’t manually charge a donor’s card for purchasing event registrations, items, entries or for making a bid.
