Adding a New Donor
When you add a new donor with Admin Batch Giving, there are a few small steps you need to take. You can follow all of the above steps; just make sure to click “Add donor’s name” once you type the donor’s name. We highly encourage you to use an email address here when adding a donor.
Important Donor Record Considerations
- If an individual email address is not provided, then the donor cannot be provided with a tax receipt at the end of the financial year.
- If the donor has already been entered into the system, the admin should enter the SAME name and email address that the donor has used unless otherwise instructed. Failure to do so will result in multiple records and inaccurate end-of-year tax statements.
Once you add a new donor, their details will populate the “Contact Management” tab in Tithely and autofill in future Admin Batch Gifts!
That’s it! You can add as many transactions as you need. Navigate to your giving dashboard to see where the transaction has been run or donations have been recorded.
