Selflessly Helps Make Donation Matching Easier with w/ Double the Donation Integration

As a donor and employee, you want your charitable gifts to go as far as possible for the nonprofits you support. As a donor who works for a company that offers employee matching gifts, getting your donation matched can be a great way to do it.

You can easily do this through the Selflessly platform. However, what if you could request that match from the nonprofit’s own website page?!

Well now you can!  We have launched a new auto-submission functionality made possible by a seamless integration between Selflessly and Double the Donation. Whether on the Selflessly corporate philanthropy software platform or on the nonprofit website page, getting a gift matched has never been easier.

The Details and Specifics of Auto-Submit Donation Matching!

Thousands of charitable organizations, educational institutions, and more utilize Double the Donation’s matching gift automation tools to promote workplace giving opportunities and guide supporters through the process. As a donor completes an online donation to the nonprofit of their choice, they are likely prompted to enter their employing company’s name to uncover their matching gift eligibility.

Upon submitting their gift, the user is redirected to a donation confirmation page, complete with detailed information about their employer’s matching gift programming. This allows them to quickly determine whether they qualify and identify the next steps.

Now, thanks to the partnership between Selflessly and Double the Donation, an eligible donor is simply asked to enter their corporate email address using an embedded widget in the confirmation screen. Then, by checking the included box, the employee authorizes Double the Donation to submit their matching gift request to their employer through Selflessly. 

That’s it! The rest is handled automatically by Selflessly with the submission able to be reviewed and verified as usual – the end goal of the gift match being approved by the employing company and dispersing funds to the organization with ease and speed. Employees will be able to see all their information as usual on the Selflessly dashboard. You will be able to see how many dollars your company has matched, and how many dollars you have left to use in employee matching donations. 

Wrapping Up!

Selflessly is dedicated to making matching donations as easy as possible for employees and their Culture Team leaders. This integration is another step Selflessly has made to encourage employee engagement in giving back and social impact. We’re excited to continue to help others make a difference.

Our software platform helps companies develop a purpose-driven culture with an easy tool. Teams can easily streamline CSR initiatives give employees a central place to get involved. Check out a few case studies or drop us a note — we’d love to chat!
