How to set a default donation type

The default donation type allows you to choose which giving option donors see first when visiting your profile—either a one-time donation or a monthly donation.

To set a default donation type:

  1. 1
    Go to Edit My Page from the menu.
  2. 2
    Scroll down to the Donation Preferences section.
  3. 3
    Locate the Default Donation Type toggle and select your preference:
    1. a
      Give once: Prioritizes one-time donations.
    2. b
      Give monthly: Prioritizes recurring monthly donations.
  4. 4
    Donors will still be able to choose their preferred donation type. This setting only controls which option is shown first.
  5. 5
    Once you're satisfied with your changes, click Publish Changes at the bottom of the page to update your profile.
