Overview
AplosPay is a part of our existing financial software package, which enables donors to cover the transaction fee of their donation. Transaction fees are incurred whenever a donor takes advantage of the convenience factor of online giving. See the breakdown of transaction fees below:
- Credit Card: 2.9% + $0.30 per transaction
- AMEX: 4% + $0.30 per transaction
- ACH: 1% +$0.30 per transaction
Donors that opt-in to cover the transaction fee for their online donations maximize their gifts while preserving the convenience of online giving.
