CoolPay

Online giving that lands on the donor record.

Giving pages, recurring gifts, a donor portal, and event tickets, processed by CoolPay and recorded in CoolFocus on the donor’s record. CoolPay is included with every CoolFocus plan.

Included with every plan. Processing fees apply only to gifts processed through CoolPay. See CoolPay fees

How it works

From the giving page to the bank deposit. Forms, recurring gifts, event tickets, and payouts, all recorded in CoolFocus as they happen.

Build a giving page in minutes. Set the suggested amounts and what each one does, the frequencies, funds, colors and story, and watch the live preview change. Then share the link or print the QR code.

Recurring giving

A monthly gift, month by month. Linda gives $50 on the first of every month. Each payment posts to her record on its own, alongside her spring appeal gift and today’s $75, with no one keying anything in.

CoolPay

Everything online giving needs. On every plan, connected to the donor records your team already uses.

  • Unlimited donation forms

    A form for every appeal, each with its own path on your donor portal, suggested amounts with impact descriptions, funds, sources, a goal meter, and your colors.

  • Cards, bank accounts and wallets

    Credit and debit cards, Apple Pay and Google Pay, bank accounts verified with Plaid, or manual bank entry. Turn each one on or off per form.

  • Recurring giving

    Weekly, 1st & 15th, monthly, quarterly or annual gifts, with an optional number of payments, or schedule a one-time gift for later.

  • Donors can cover the fee

    An “Increase my impact” option adds the processing fee to the gift. You choose whether it starts checked, or hide it.

  • A donor portal

    Donors sign in with a code sent to their email to see giving history and receipts, download annual statements, manage payment methods, and change, pause or cancel a recurring gift.

  • Automatic gift receipts

    A receipt email goes out after every CoolPay gift, in your own words, and the gift is marked Receipted on the donor record.

  • Straight to the donor record

    Every online and recurring gift becomes a contribution on the donor’s record, with no import and no re-keying.

  • Payouts you can reconcile

    Each deposit lists its gifts, refunds and processor fees, and exports to Excel or CSV for your bookkeeper.

  • Tokenized payment methods

    Card and bank details are tokenized by the payment processor, so CoolFocus stores a token for recurring gifts, not the card number.

  • Premium

    Event tickets and sponsorships

    Paid tickets, sponsorships and peer-to-peer gifts check out through CoolPay, with fair-market value recorded for each ticket.

  • Premium

    Peer-to-peer fundraising

    Fundraiser pages, teams and leaderboards for your events, part of Fundraising Events.

  • Plus and up

    QuickBooks Online

    CoolPay contributions sync to QuickBooks Online with the rest of your giving.

CoolPay is metered: cards are 2.9% + $0.30 and bank transfers (ACH) are 2.0% + $0.30 per successful transaction, from the pricing page. Donors can choose to cover the fee.

CoolPay is included with every CoolFocus plan. You pay processing fees only on gifts processed through CoolPay.
