Can an autofill link set a form to recurring?

Yes, you can add ?recur=1 to the end of a Giving Forms URL to automatically select the recurring gift checkbox. This parameter ensures consistent behavior across all form types. For example: https://www.givecampus.com/campaigns/[ID]/donations/new?recur=1

You can also pre-set the recurring frequency and duration using additional parameters:

• Add period=monthly, period=yearly, or period=limited_months to set the gift frequency or duration type.
• Add recur_length=[number] to set the duration allowed by the selected frequency.

Example: For 12 monthly payments, use limited_months with recur_length=12 (when this option is enabled on the form):

https://www.givecampus.com/campaigns/[ID]/donations/new?recur=1&period=limited_months&recur_length=12

Frequency and duration must be enabled on the form. An autofill link does not enable an unavailable recurring option. With period=limited_months, recur_length is the number of monthly payments. With period=monthly or period=yearly, it is the number of years. For example, period=monthly&recur_length=1 means monthly payments for one year, not one payment. Test the resulting schedule before sharing the link.
