Fundraising Settings
The Fundraising settings tab is a place to view and alter the various settings for donations on the account. Check out the drop-down menus below to learn more about a particular setting.
By default, the ability to donate is turned off. If you would like patrons to be able to donate to your group organization, select the On button. Remember to click Save Changes at the bottom of your screen.
There might be circumstances where you want a separate list of pre-set donation amounts and Donor Levels on your Donation tab. To accomplish this, you will want to click On under Corporate Donations. This will create a separate tab under Donations on the patron side where they can toggle between Individual and Corporate donations.
Patron View for Individual Donations
Patron View for Corporate Donations
When utilizing the Donor Levels feature, you might want to display these levels during the checkout process. To do so, click On under the section labeled Levels at Checkout. Subsequently, the set donation levels will appear at checkout as seen below.
Just like many other areas in Ludus, you can attach a custom Form to donations. By adding a form to this section, you will have that set of questions asked anytime someone makes a donation to your organization. You can click this link to learn more about Forms.
When a donation is made, the patron will automatically receive a receipt of the donation to the email entered at the time of checkout. You may wish to insert some additional text to these emails. You may insert custom messaging into the email by typing into the text box under the section labeled Confirmation Email. This is perfect for 501(c)(3) / non-profit letters and thank you's.
This field allows for creating a customized plea for donations that will appear in the "Donate" box when patrons purchase event tickets, Collections, Classes or Passes.

To find a sharable link that will lead patrons directly to the donation section of your Ludus page, you can navigate to Fundraising --> Settings, scroll to the bottom, and under Donations: Share Link, click Copy to Clipboard.
Note: It is important to share all Links as they are shown on your Share page. Adding the "www" prefix to a link in Ludus will prevent your link from working.
