Reconciling FairGive donations

SMS Donations

FairGive will send out a detailed SMS donation statement by email.

For this donation billing, you will receive two documents:

1. A detailed transaction overview
2. A summary of donations

On the detailed transaction overview, you will find the date and currency, the gross donation amount, the commission and the net donation amount. You will also see the RaiseNow transaction ID (EPP Transaction ID) with which each transaction can also be identified in the RaiseNow Manager.

The donation summary provides you with a detailed list of the gross donation amounts per operator and the respective deductions. The remaining balance is paid to you on the specified date.

RaiseNow Free donations

FairGive will send a Free donation account by email each month.
