Recurring Giving
Recurring donors are the backbone of sustainable fundraising. Monthly donors give 42% more annually and have 5x higher lifetime value than one-time donors.Frequencies
GiveLink supports four recurring frequencies:- Monthly — Most popular, best for sustained giving
- Quarterly — Good for larger gifts
- Annual — Ideal for membership renewals
How It Works
- Donor selects a recurring frequency on the donation form
- Stripe creates a subscription with the chosen interval
- GiveLink automatically charges the donor’s payment method on schedule
- Failed payments are retried automatically (Stripe Smart Retries)
- Donors can manage their recurring gifts via the Donor Portal
Donor Portal
Recurring donors get access to a self-service portal where they can:- View their giving history and receipts
- Update payment information
- Change donation amount or frequency
- Cancel their recurring gift
