Outline new Donations pathway

[PatReynolds]

Looking at Akhil's new form - I think we are going to need separate blocks for Kindlink and Paypal, as Kindlink has a lot of options on-site/in-form, and Paypal has none.

For Discussion

Also a giftaid form in the Paypal block, and for cheque and bank transfer donations.

We could try to get all onto the Donations page, e.g.: https://docs.google.com/drawings/d/1HbCLYVW-maxSArdDoTIt5_YzcFmV8iRvayTTmPpzcd4/edit?usp=sharing

Or perhaps better to have a lot of choices in a dropdown set, e.g. Kindlink (GB£, debit or credit card, one off or repeat) Paypal (GB$, Euro, AUS, CAN, NZ and US$) By Cheque (KU cheques onliy) Bank transfer (from UK banks only) plus FAQ as at present - re-titling volunteer with 'non-cash ways to help'???

'By Cheque' and 'By Bank transfer' need a form on our site that has the giftaid logo and information. Also needs to say that the name you give on the form must match your bank account name

[PatReynolds]

Three paths to donation (no need to ask about regular payments as all done on the donation platforms): Do you want to pay in UK£ or other? 1/ Paypal currency buttons for other currency Pay by card vs pay by paypal/cheque/bank transfer? 2/ Kindlink Form 3/ form (with giftaid option) to paypal UK£, cheque and bank transfer

For giftaid: need to collect donor's name, home address, and email address (if paying by paypal) or bank account name (if significantly different to their own name) .

Information ("background") needed on Giftaid declaration: There is no set design for a declaration form or a verbal declaration, but it must include:

the name of your charity or CASC the donor’s full name the donor’s home address whether the declaration covers past, present or future donations or just a single donation a statement that the donor wants Gift Aid to apply (this could be a tick box on a written or online declaration) an explanation that the donor needs to pay the same amount or more of UK Income Tax and/or Capital Gains Tax as all charities and CASCs will claim on the donor’s gifts in a tax year and that the donor is responsible to pay any difference

@PatReynolds @DeniseColbert, I found an UK based NGO : https://www.savethechildren.org.uk/

I really liked the way they've implemented their donation system for post transfer ( not sure what they mean but I guess it's cheque or cash payment)

They've created forms for the same, https://www.savethechildren.org.uk/content/dam/gb/reports/fundraising/single-donation-form-may2018-v4.pdf https://www.savethechildren.org.uk/content/dam/gb/reports/fundraising/regular-giving-donation-form-may2018-v4.pdf

Should we implement something similar for Bank transfer/cheque?

I think it would be a good idea for the testimonials to have tickyboxes that say that the testimonial is about FreeBMD, FreeCEN, FreeREG, FreeUKGenealogy - as we can re-use the testimonials on the individual websites.

I've noted your comment on the testimonial story @PatReynolds (#81)
