 5. Start accepting donations!

#### 📊 Shortcodes

Parameters: `layout` (inline|stacked|card), `amounts` (comma-separated), `title`,`

Both support merge tags: `{donor_name}`, `{amount}`, `{date}`, `{site_name}`, and

### External Services

This plugin connects to **Stripe** to process payments.

**What it does:**
 Processes credit card donations via Stripe Checkout — a secure,
Stripe-hosted payment page.

**When it connects:**
 Only when a donor submits the donation form, or when Stripe
sends a webhook event to confirm payment status.

**What data is sent to Stripe:**
 Donor name, email address, donation amount, currency,
and an optional message. Payment card details are entered directly on Stripe’s servers
and never pass through your website.

 * Service: [https://stripe.com](https://stripe.com)

## FAQ

### Do I need a Stripe account?

Yes. Sign up for free at [stripe.com](https://stripe.com) to get your API keys. 
You can accept donations in test mode without entering payment details.

### Are there any fees?

Donatico itself is free. Stripe charges standard processing fees (typically 2.9%
+ $0.30 per transaction in the US; see [stripe.com/pricing](https://stripe.com/pricing)
for your country).

### Can I accept recurring/monthly donations?

Recurring donations are planned for a future Pro version. The current free version
supports one-time donations only.

### Can I use multiple donation forms on one page?

Yes. Each `[donatico_form]` shortcode renders an independent form with its own ID.
Multiple forms on the same page work without conflict.

### How do I test donations without real money?

Use Stripe test mode (enabled by default) and test card `4242 4242 4242 4242` with
any future expiry date and any CVC. No real charges are made.

### Is it GDPR compliant?

Yes. The plugin only collects data entered by the donor (name, email, optional message).
Payment card details are entered directly on Stripe’s hosted page and never touch
your server. See our [Privacy Policy](https://stripe.com/privacy) for Stripe’s data
handling.

### Does it work with WooCommerce?

Yes. Donatico is a standalone plugin and does not require WooCommerce. It works 
alongside WooCommerce without conflict.

### Can I customise the thank-you email?

Yes. Go to **Donatico  Settings  Notifications** to customise the subject line, 
heading, body copy (with merge tags), and footer. You can also send test emails 
from the same page.

### What currencies are supported?

USD, EUR, GBP, AUD, CAD, INR, BDT. More currencies can be requested via the support
forum.

### Where is donation data stored?

All donation records are stored in your WordPress database in a custom `wp_donatico_donations`
table. No data is sent to external servers other than Stripe for payment processing.
