Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Donor Merchant – Donation Form with Recurring Donations, Stripe and PayPal

Yes. Every feature described on this page is in the free plugin, with no add-ons to buy and no fee added to donations. You pay only Stripe's or PayPal's own processing fees. The optional paid plans are for priority support.

Yes. Weekly, every-2-weeks, monthly, quarterly, and yearly donations work with both Stripe and PayPal in the free plugin, and you choose which ones your form offers. Set up the gateway's webhook (the Payments tab shows the exact URL and events) so each renewal payment is recorded.

Yes. Churches use it for online tithes and offerings. Set up funds such as General, Building, or Missions so givers can designate their gift, let members give monthly, record cash and check offerings by hand so each giver's history is complete, and let members download their own year-end giving statement from the donor portal.

Yes. It supports 20 currencies, including EUR, GBP, CAD, AUD, and NZD, and the currency position, separator, and decimal settings let amounts follow your local conventions. Bank debit (ACH) is for US bank accounts only. UK charities can collect Gift Aid declarations and prepare their HMRC claims.

Yes. Export your donations to CSV from GiveWP or Charitable, then upload the file at Donor Merchant → Import. The donation importer detects the columns automatically, including Charitable's campaign, date, and gateway columns, so gifts land in the right campaign. It also recognizes exports from Donorbox, PayPal, Stripe, WooCommerce, Gravity Forms, and WPForms. You review the mapping and a preview before anything is saved, and running it twice does not create duplicates.

No. An active recurring donation stays with Stripe or PayPal, attached to the plugin that created it, so it cannot be moved by any plugin. The import brings across each donor's past gifts. Ask recurring donors to start a new recurring gift on your new form, then cancel the old one.

Card details are typed into fields hosted by Stripe's Payment Element or into PayPal's own window. They never reach your server, and the plugin never stores them. Integrations built this way generally qualify for the shortest PCI self-assessment questionnaire (SAQ A), as Stripe's security guide describes for its Payment Element. Your organization is still responsible for completing whatever PCI validation your processor asks for, and your site must use HTTPS.

No. Card details are entered into fields hosted by Stripe (or on PayPal's site) and never reach your server.

Yes. Stripe and PayPal require your site to be served over HTTPS.
