Your supporters want to partner with your mission. But many of their financial resources aren't sitting in a checking account, and rightly so.
Traditionally, that's been a hurdle. Non-cash assets were stuck and hard to turn into funds they could donate.
Not anymore. Stock, Crypto, and Donor-Advised Funds can now flow securely to your organization in a few simple steps, arriving as cash ready to fuel your ministry.
In early November, you'll be able to accept donations via Crypto, Stocks, and Donor Advised Funds (DAF) on your Express Giving form. Donations via these methods will appear within your Transaction History as well as Donor History, making them easier to track and manage for giving admins and donors alike. Find further details about these exciting new enhancements below.

What's Changing?
In early November, your giving software will be enabled to receive donations via Crypto, Stock, and Donor Advised Funds (DAF). At release, these new options will automatically appear on all your Express Giving Forms, giving your supporters more ways to partner with your mission.
Do I Need to Do Anything?

What if I Don't Want to Accept Stock/Crypto/DAF?
Before release:
- Within Giving, you'll see an on-screen announcement about this update.
- Check off "Do not enable Stock, Cryptocurrency, and Donor Advised Fund Giving."
- Doing so will prevent these payment methods from being auto-enabled for your organization.
Note: The on-screen announcement will only appear if you are your organization's Primary Giving Administrator.
If you need help identifying your organization's primary Giving Administrator, or if you cannot view this announcement, please contact support to opt out.
