Under your campaign title, choose whether you want to embed a full donation form, a popup donation form, or a donate button that links to a Donorbox-hosted donation page.
Donorbox also gives you the option to choose between embedding two form variations: our Classic Form and our OmniGive™ Donation Form. While both are innovative, we strongly recommend you choose the latter.
The OmniGive donation form unlocks a range of benefits for your organization and donors, including 22+ payment methods dynamically displayed based on your donor’s location and device. Learn more about the benefits of the OmniGive donation form in this blog post.
Regardless of whether you choose to embed a full form, popup form, or button leading to a donation page, you’ll have full control over customization.
Copy the generated HTML code when you’re happy with how your form/page looks.
Once you have your button code copied, you can return to your Shopify Store editor. Locate your pages and choose which page you’d like to add your button or form to.
From the page editor screen, click the icon on the right to access the page’s HTML. Here you can paste your button or form code!
Click “Save” and you’ll be able to see your button or form on your page.
We hope this step-by-step guide on embedding donation forms and adding a donate button was helpful for Shopify fundraising. Donorbox’s free donation page and recurring donation forms will enhance your donors’ donation experience and help you collect more Shopify donations.
Shopify for nonprofits is a great e-commerce platform that easily lets them collect donations. However, your nonprofit should promote this option through various channels. Use your social media profiles to market the donation option alongside your merchandise. Your purchasers and supporters must know that they can help you in more than one way if they visit your Shopify store.
