Text-to-give / SMS campaigns

Checks under $1,000
Check payments are only available for amounts over $1,000. If you'd like to accept checks for smaller amounts, you can upvote this feature request. In the meantime, you can use the manual payment entry feature to record offline check payments.
Apple Pay and Google Pay on Auction forms
Apple Pay and Google Pay are available on most Zeffy forms, but they are not currently supported for auction campaigns. If you'd like to see this feature added, you can upvote and comment on this feature request.
For auction campaigns, bidders can pay using credit cards, debit cards, ACH/PAD, or cheque (for amounts over $1,000 if enabled by the nonprofit).
Apple Pay and Google Pay over $1,000 and on embeds
Apple Pay and Google Pay are available for most Zeffy forms on mobile devices, but they are limited to payments up to $1,000. These payment methods are also not displayed on embedded forms. For higher amounts or embedded forms, supporters will need to use credit cards, debit cards, or bank transfer (ACH/PAD) instead.
