Pre-Filled Online Giving Forms

Posted By: on August 28, 2017


We have been listening to your online giving needs and that is why we created some ways you can have forms pre-filled with recurring donation schedules and prefilled amounts! Now when a donor clicks to donate to a monthly subscription it will be pre-set to the donation cycle of monthly and/or donation amount you would like.

Go to your online giving options from your dashboard under "Display Your Badge". From there you can choose between the different donation button options to put on your website. Watch the video below to see the step by step.

Our Pre-Fill Online Giving Options to Add to the URL

onceorrecurring=Recurring

paymentcycletype=Month

paymentcyclecount=11

billing_start_date=2017-08-30

donation_template_amount=25

Building Your Online Giving URL

For the first option you choose you will add a "?" after the link and before your first pre-filled option. After that each option you add will start with a "&". If there is already a "?" in your URL start with the "&".

So let's show you how a link could look. You will see the different sections of the link that make the link pre-set. So below we are choosing our "Link to New Page" online giving badge. This link already has a "?" so we will start our first parameter with a "&". We will require the form to pre-set to recurring monthly, with 12 payment cycles (so one year of donation monthly), and set to an amount of 50.

Here is your basic link. Go ahead and try it out:

For Online Giving forms that are HTML

For HTML here are the different options you can add below to make the form pre-set. You will notice this new piece of code below has been added to the badges so go ahead and re-copy the code from your badge selection from your "Display your Badge!" in your dashboard. Then you can pre-fill the newest section that looks like the HTML code below. For this example, the badge would be pre-set to recurring monthly, no set number of cycles, a start date, and no pre-filled amount.

input type='hidden' name='onceorrecurring' value='Once' />

input type='hidden' name='paymentcycletype' value='Month' />

input type='hidden' name='paymentcyclecount' value='' />

input type='hidden' name='billing_start_date' value='2017-08-24' />

input type='hidden' name='donation_template_amount' value='' />
