Learn how to configure an additional Stripe/PayPal account for GC Events revenue only.
GiveCampus partners leveraging both GC Online Giving and GC Events can now establish a separate Stripe and/or PayPal account exclusively for event revenue.
How it works:
- When an additional Stripe/PayPal account is configured for GC Events, all event revenue will be deposited into this secondary account.
- Integrated donations made during the registration flow or via the Make a Gift button on an event landing page will continue to flow into the primary online giving account.
Keep in mind:
- Event revenue deposited into the secondary Stripe/PayPal account includes both the fair market value (FMV) and gift portion of any ticket types or add-ons.
