How to allow a visitor to add a donation of any amount

[IT at EHC]

I'm offering products for a suggested donation amount. I would like the visitor to be able to enter the amount he would like to donate so that it would appear in the cart. Is there a way to do this in Business Catalyst?

Thanks,

Michael

Hi Michael,

One way would be to create a $1 product and then get customers to enter the

amount into quantity field. So if they enter 50 you'll end up with 50 on

dollar products. But throwing a web form onto a page with credit card

details on it and getting them to enter an arbitrary amount is abetter

option. You can also offer some preset amounts through radio buttons.

Cheers,

Thanks Mario,

I appreciate your answer. The one dollar amount hadn't occurred to me. Is there another way?

Mario gave you the two ends of the coin there Michael.

If you are trying to use a product then you would have a $1 value and the stock amount would turn that into right value through the shopping cart.

IF you have a seamless payment gateway though you can just make a custom web form for donations which allows a user to just enter an amount, provide credit card details and then pay.
