Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about DonateOcean – Donations via PayPal

Install DonateOcean, enter your PayPal API credentials (Client ID and Secret) on the settings page, and place the [donadosu_donation] shortcode on any page or use the DonateOcean Gutenberg block. The plugin attempts to register the PayPal webhook automatically, so completed donations are recorded even if the donor closes their browser before the redirect completes.
Yes, and there is no paid tier. Every feature shipped in the plugin is available to every user under the GPLv2 or later license. There are no locked features, premium add-ons, or upsells from the plugin author. The only cost of using the plugin is PayPal's standard payment processing fees, which are paid directly to PayPal.
Yes. DonateOcean is designed for any 501(c)(3), registered charity, religious organization, school, or community fundraising group. It supports tax-deductible receipts with your organization name, tax ID, and a customizable tax disclaimer; tribute donations ("In honor of" / "In memory of"); and recurring giving for sustaining donors.
Place the [donadosu_donation] shortcode on any page or post, or insert the DonateOcean Form block in the Gutenberg editor. You can also choose between four display modes — inline, modal popup, sidebar widget, or a dedicated full-page form — to match your site's design.
Recurring donations are enabled by default. In the Donation Experience settings, choose which frequencies to offer (one-time, monthly, annual, or all three) and which is selected by default. When a donor chooses a recurring option, DonateOcean uses PayPal's native Subscriptions checkout popup — the donor never leaves your site — and automatically creates the required PayPal catalog product and billing plan for you. Donors can manage or cancel their own subscriptions through the donor portal — no account needed.
Yes. On the donation detail page, administrators can cancel, pause (suspend), or resume any active PayPal subscription. Each action is sent to PayPal and the subscription status updates automatically. Donors can also cancel their own recurring donations from the self-service donor portal.
PayPal notifies your site via webhook each time a subscription is activated, renews, or is cancelled. DonateOcean verifies every webhook signature and updates the matching donation record, so renewal payments, subscription status, and cancellations stay accurate even if no one is logged in. A receipt is sent on each successful renewal.
The plugin processes payments through PayPal, which supports PayPal balance, credit cards, debit cards, and local payment methods available in the donor's country. It uses PayPal's Orders API v2 and optionally supports Advanced Credit and Debit Card Fields for direct card entry without leaving your site.
Yes. Enable Sandbox mode in the plugin settings and enter your PayPal Sandbox API credentials to test donations, receipts, webhooks, and refunds before switching to Live mode.
No. The plugin automatically registers the webhook endpoint with PayPal when you save your API credentials. If automatic registration fails (for example, on a localhost environment), you can configure it manually in your PayPal Developer Dashboard and paste the Webhook ID into the plugin settings.
