The Every.org donate button gives your supporters a fast, simple way to give from your website, your emails, or anywhere you share a link. When someone clicks it, they're taken straight into Every.org's donation flow, where they can choose their payment method and complete their gift in just a few steps. Every.org provides a link you can place anywhere, as well as a button you can add to your website.

Every.org accepts a wide range of payment methods (card, bank, PayPal, Venmo, Apple Pay, Google Pay, crypto, stock, mutual funds, DAF, and gift cards) so donors can give the way that works best for them. Every.org handles tax receipts automatically.

Here's a look at what the donate button does, how to set it up, and a few ways nonprofits are using it.

How to set it up

You don't need to know how to code. Every.org has a no-code button builder built into your nonprofit dashboard that walks you through everything.

From the button builder, you can:

  • Set a fixed donation amount or let donors choose their own
  • Set the donation frequency (fixed at one-time, monthly, yearly, or donor's choice)
  • Set a minimum donation amount
  • Add suggested donation amounts
  • Add a designation label (e.g. "General Fund," "Scholarship Program")
  • Match your nonprofit's brand colors
  • Decide whether to collect donor contact information, and whether it's optional or required
  • Choose which payment methods to offer (or offer all of them)

All of your settings are saved into the link the builder generates. If you want to change the configuration later, just use the builder to create a new button or link. You can also email the configuration to yourself or a colleague so you always have it on hand.

For teams that want more control, advanced customizations are available through the Every.org Charity API.

How nonprofits are using it

Here are a few common use cases worth knowing about.

An all-in-one giving button for your website

The simplest use case: one button on your website that opens the full donation flow. Donors choose how much to give, how often, and how they want to pay. Organizations like Project CETI use a simple, all-in-one donate button on their site to send supporters straight to the giving experience without any friction.

Highlighting specific payment methods

Many donors don't realize they can give crypto, stock, or through a donor-advised fund. Creating dedicated buttons or links for each payment method — and placing them prominently on your donate page — lets supporters know those options exist. 100 Humanitarians International does this well, surfacing separate giving pathways so donors see exactly what's available.

Memberships, sponsorships, and recurring giving

If your organization offers membership tiers, program sponsorships, or fixed recurring gifts, you can create separate buttons for each one. Set a fixed amount, lock the frequency to monthly or annual, and add a designation label to make it clear what the donation is for. For example: a "Family Membership" button set to $100/year, or a "Sponsor a Student" button set to $500 as a one-time gift.

Get started

One thing worth keeping in mind: the button itself won't do the work of getting it in front of people. Once it's set up, add it to your website, include it in your email newsletters, and share the link on social media. The more visible and accessible your giving pathway is, the more likely supporters are to use it.
