đ Platform Admins: Introducing âPledge for laterâ â Let Donors Commit Now, Pay Later!
You can now let your donors commit to a gift even if theyâre not ready to pay immediately â without losing their intent. Weâre excited to roll out Pledges on Checkout Pages, designed to help you capture more committed revenue, reduce manual follow-ups, and improve your forecasting and stewardship planning.
đ
Whatâs New?
- Pledges on Checkout Page:Enable âPledge for laterâ where donors can commit a gift for the future (BBMS only, CSC must be set to "None").
- Flexible Pledge Schedules:Donors select the total amount, start date(starting at least 10 days from today), schedule (one-time or monthly) and number of installments. The system auto-generates an installment plan.
- Secure Card Tokenization:Donors must add a card while pledging, but no charges are made by Almabase. BBMS + RENXT handle all charges moving forward.
- Gift Dashboard Enhancements:New âPledgesâ view and status updates synced daily from RENXT. Youâll now see pledged vs. received totals, overdue payments, and synced status â all in one place.
đ
What to Expect
- All pledge activity (donor and admin) is managed within Checkout Pages.
- Youâll find a new âPledgesâ tab under each Checkout Page showing full details, including status, balance, and installment schedule.
- Statuses (Paid, Failed, Overdue) are mirrored from RENXT every day. No more guessing whether a pledge was fulfilled!
- Pledge payments wonât execute until synced to RENXT . If the first installment date passes and the pledge is not synced, the pledge is auto-cancelled.
â
Why It Matters
- Donât lose momentum when a donor isnât ready to give immediately - turn ânot nowâ into a committed future gift.
- Automate charge collection via RENXT and BBMS, while Almabase keeps your team up-to-date with real-time pledge tracking.
- Improve forecasting & stewardship by clearly separating committed gifts from received ones.
- Cut down on manual follow-ups and errors by giving donors a clear path to complete their pledge securely and on time.
Youâll find the new âPledge for laterâ option when creating a new Checkout Page. Just make sure your BBMS instance has CSC set to None - weâll prompt you if that needs updating.
đĄ Pledge today, fulfill tomorrow â while keeping your data, donors, and dollars on track.
