Download Free GiveWP Text-to-Give Addon
The Text-to-Give GiveWP add-on allows your donors to give to your cause directly from their mobile phones. Powered by Twilio and Stripe, Text-to-Give makes it simple for donors to give from anywhere they have a phone signal. Better yet, giving again and again is as simple as sending a text message with an amount.

POWERFUL TEXT-TO-GIVE FUNDRAISING FOR YOUR WORDPRESS WEBSITE
The average person spends over five hours on their phones daily. Why not allow your donors to give through text? This simple two-step process allows you to meet your donors where they’re at: on their phones.

TEXT-TO-GIVE POWERED BY TWILIO
Our Text-to-Give add-on is powered by Stripe and Twilio through the GiveWP donation plugin. This enables you to manage your text-to-give campaigns in the same way you manage all your other online fundraising.

Simple Setup

1. Connect GiveWP to Twilio to get started.
2. Create a text-to-give donation form or enable text-to-give on your existing forms.

2-Step Donations
Once you’ve set up your text-to-give forms, your donors can give in two simple steps.

1. Text your dedicated donation number.
2. Register and confirm.

WHAT DOES TWILIO COST FOR TEXT GIVING?
Twilio has a monthly cost for the phone number and a “pay as you go” cost per SMS message.

Each phone number you register (at the time of this writing) costs $1/month.

Each SMS message costs $0.0075 to send and the same cost again to receive.

With the GiveWP Text-to-Give solution, the first time a donor registers to give via SMS there can be as few as 3 sent/received messages or as many as 5 or 6, depending on how many times the donor replies to the text message.

After the donor has registered, they can donate again with as few as 4 SMS messages (their donation amount, your request for confirmation, their confirmation, thank you text).

So if you have 20 donors who each donate 2 times in a month, at $50 for each donation, this is costs you could incur:

• $0.60 for 20 initial donations averaging 4 messages each, or 80 SMS messages
• $0.60 for 20 follow-up donations, averaging 4 messages each
• $1.00 for the phone number for the month
• $70 for your Stripe credit card fees. Based on 2.9% + $0.30 per transaction (100 transactions). Note that 501c3’s often get a lower fee rate with Stripe

The result is that you raised $2,000 and paid $70 in Stripe fees and $2.20 in Twilio fees for a total of $72.20

NOTE: The above examples are estimates based on Twilio’s current pricing for the U.S. only (
