Statuses
There are three types of gifts — debit, credit, and ACH. Debit and credit process instantly, while ACH donations take an average of 1-3 business days to process before they are eligible to transfer to your bank account. This processing time is solely based on the donor's bank.
Pending indicates that the donor has chosen to give using their bank account and that the gift is still processing. On average, ACH gifts take 1-3 business days to process but can take more depending on the donor's bank. Longer processing times are more common with smaller banks or credit unions and during busy holiday seasons such as Thanksgiving and Christmas. If you have more questions about processing times, check out our FAQ article here.
Transfer Pending indicates that the gift has been processed and is ready to be sent to your bank account in the next scheduled transfer. Read more about transfer schedules by checking out the Transfers and Deposits article!
Deleted indicates gifts that will have the name and email of the donor absent from their donations and/or transactions. This will occur if the donor decides to delete their profile.
Failed indicates that the donation did not go through. Failures can be due to insufficient funds, expired cards, or a bank blocking unfamiliar or large donations. When a donation fails, the donor is notified via email. If you wish to view the reason the gift failed, simply click on the gift and read the error message. In most cases, the best course of action is to have the donor contact their bank or credit card company associated with their account.
Refunded indicates that the gift has been returned to the donor. The donor always receives their full gift amount when refunded. When a refund is issued, we send the full gift amount to your donor and then we credit the fee associated with the original gift back into your Pending Transfer balance (Transfers). It is labeled as a “Balance Adjustment.” The refund will be returned to the donor's account in 7-10 business days.
Batched indicates that the gift is an offline gift. This includes all cash, checks, and imported gifts.
Paid indicates that the donation has been transferred to your bank account.
Disputed indicates a chargeback. A chargeback is initiated when the account holder (customer or donor) forces a refund through their card, line of credit, or bank account. Chargebacks are usually initiated if the payment or donation is disputed or fraudulent. Often, this is done because conversations with the merchant or donee were not satisfactory, or without consulting the merchant or donee at all. When this happens, the donor’s bank will investigate each chargeback and assess a fee on top of the amount donated to cover their investigation. These fees can range from $15 to $100 or more.
