Learn how to customize suggested donation amounts, default giving amount and custom messages for any donation form.

Written by Aneysi

1. From your dashboard, click on Donation campaigns and choose which campaign type you'd like to edit.

2. Click Manage.

3. Click Settings.

4. Scroll down until you see Suggested donation amounts.

Here, you can edit the suggested donation amounts and default amount for any donation period enabled for your campaign. You can set suggested amounts for one-time, weekly, monthly, quarterly and annual giving periods. You can also add a custom message for each donation amount.


In addition, you can set a default suggested amount. If you're not setting custom default amounts for each giving period the form will show this default amount across all giving periods instead. This default amount is automatically chosen on the donor view. You can also enable Smart suggestions to provide your donors with personalized suggested donation amounts whenever possible. Once you have made your edits, click Save.


Default donation period

You can also choose which giving period is automatically selected when a donor opens your donation form. Scroll down to the Default donation period section, then use the dropdown to choose your default: one-time, weekly, monthly, quarterly, or annual. From this section you can also set each giving option to Yes or No to enable or disable it on your form. Once you have made your edits, click Save.

When a donor opens your donation form, your default donation period will be pre-selected, along with your default suggested amount.


See the example below of how your custom message and your default donation period will show when the donor selects that amount.

Please Note: These instructions are the same for any type of donation form.
