What's New: A redesigned checkout and a pricing page fee calculator

Hey Fans! This one is about the page your supporters actually see when they give. We gave the checkout a full design pass, brought back suggested donation amounts, and rebuilt our pricing page so you can work out what MemberDrive costs before you sign up.

A checkout that shows who the gift is for

The checkout now opens with your Organization's logo, "Give to" your Campaign, the Campaign summary, and its goal bar. As a supporter picks an amount, the goal bar previews their gift, with a line like "Your gift brings Annual Fund to $170,159, $279,841 from its goal." It counts gifts the same way your Campaign's Raised total does.

Clearer amounts for one-time, monthly, and Pledge gifts

The amount always means each payment. That holds for a one-time gift, a recurring gift, and a Pledge. For a Pledge, the checkout shows the total (amount times number of payments) so nobody has to do the math, and switching between one-time, recurring, and Pledge keeps the number they typed.

Suggested amounts are back. Every suggested amount you set on the Campaign shows up as a button under the amount field. You can set them again from the Donation form card on the Campaign edit page: numbers separated by commas, or leave it blank for no buttons.

A button that says what happens. The give button and the sentence above it spell out the amount and how often, like "Give $52.34 monthly." There's one payment method choice above the fields, and the fee wording now tells supporters what your Organization receives.

A friendlier page when you're not set up yet

If your Organization hasn't turned on a payment method yet, supporters see a short "isn't taking gifts online yet" page with a link back to the Campaign instead of a broken form. Managers also get a "Set up payments" link. Cash counts as a payment method here, so offline-only Organizations are covered too.

A pricing page with a fee calculator

The pricing page now leads with the 1% platform fee and no monthly fee, and Bitcoin gifts have no MemberDrive fee. Plug in how much you raise, how much comes in by card, and your average gift, and the calculator estimates the MemberDrive fee, standard Stripe processing, and what your Organization keeps. There's also a breakdown of a $100 gift and an FAQ.

Small fixes

Editing a Campaign page in dark mode no longer shows a white hover card behind light text, so you can read what you're about to edit.

Why it matters

Checkout is the moment a supporter decides. Showing them who they're giving to, what their gift does for the goal, and exactly what they'll be charged makes that decision easier. As always, if something feels off, reply and tell me.
