Create Donate widget #12

Open gsambrotta opened 7 years ago

gsambrotta commented 7 years ago

@gnunicorn do you have any idea how to implement this? Something that will ask if you want to donate regularly or not and how much. Like this: schermata 2016-11-30 alle 23 28 52

If yes please fill in the task description.

@gsambrotta depens on what you mean with "implement this". I don't think we can do recurring donations with stripe nor paypal at the moment, but if the Foundation board is willing to set up SEPA recurring transfers, we could for sure offer a widget that allows you to become a member or have us pull the money from your account directly. This is how most (European) foundations do it, actually.

@gnunicorn Why we cannot do recurring donation with paypal? For legal reason or because of Paypal? SEPA i think is easy and good way, make sense to set up in my opinion but don't this work just for Germany? Or just Europe? And would SEPA allow us to implement "regular" payment option? Or it just allow user to set up their account to send regular donation?

Maybe we could/should outsource this so something like betterplace.org.

It seems PayPal supports this just fine as part of their Subscriptions offering.

Please also keep in mind that OpenTechSchool e.V. is signed up with Benevity, so corporate employees might actually want to donate through their employer instead.
