Double the Donation Matching

What Double the Donation Matching is

Double the Donation Matching helps nonprofits and schools identify donors whose gifts may qualify for an employer match and helps those donors submit matching gift requests. During an online donation, an employer lookup field collects employment details and checks them against the company program database. The service can send customizable email reminders from the organization’s own domain, and donors at participating companies can submit a request directly from the donation process with one click. Its matching gift database covers more than 24,000 company programs and includes current forms and guidelines.

Organizations can connect the service with fundraising systems in categories such as donation tools, CRMs, peer-to-peer fundraising, and data enhancement platforms. The vendor describes more than 100 fundraising tool integrations, and its partner directory lists 177 results. Essentials allows one online donation platform integration and excludes CRM integrations. Standard starts at $999 a year and includes unlimited fundraising platform integrations, including CRM. Enterprise starts at $30,000 a year and adds custom APIs and multi-channel messaging. The service is available on web and through an API. Double the Donation was founded in 2011 and is headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, United States.

Who it suits

Double the Donation Matching suits nonprofits, schools, and educational institutions that want to identify match-eligible donors and guide them through requests. Organizations with multiple fundraising systems or a need for CRM integration may prefer Standard or Enterprise over Essentials.

Limits

Essentials charges $300 for up to $2,000 in dollars identified as match eligible and is free for the first year; its next tiers are $500 up to $5,000 and $1,200 up to $15,000. Essentials is designed for nonprofits reporting under $250,000 in contributions on their most recent Form 990, allows one online donation platform integration, and does not include CRM integrations.
