So glad this feature was added! In the future can a check box be added to the check out screen so members can select yes to cover the cost of the transaction? Usually this is auto-populated field the reflects the transaction cost based on the amount the membership is. We love this software btw!

Jennica Lambert: Love this idea!
It'll likely be something we can add quickly as part of this work - but just so it doesn't get lost in everything we're doing, I'm going to track it as another feature: https://feedback.joinit.org/feature-requests/p/allow-the-additional-amount-on-top-to-default-to-the-cost-of-the-transaction

Hi everyone!
Today, we're excited to introduce the ability for members to 'add on' an additional amount on top of their Membership purchase (when this new setting is enabled).
During the research and development, we came across a lot of different approaches for introducing this ability - so it made the most sense to launch with the simplest version first. And then we expect to iterate and improve the functionality based on feedback.
The basic functionality is that this feature will add an additional panel for your members to add an additional amount on top of their membership.
If you'd like to activate this today, then you can contact us via chat or support@joinit.org

Hi team!
Quick update to say that this feature is under development, and we'll be looking for a few beta testers next week!
Please comment on this thread - or reach out to support@joinit.org if you're interested in testing this.
And we'll send out more information when it's widely released shortly!
Sincerely,

Mitch Colleran: We might be interested in testing. Maybe you could tell us first what would be involved? This is a feature we had expressed interest in having :)

This would be a fantastic tool - I've seen many donors voluntarily cover processing fees for donations and it goes a long way - especially with smaller gifts. Would be great to have it as an option in Join It.

We have a one time application fee. I think this would work well for that too

Mitch Colleran: Heads up, the lack of this feature is causing some of board members to grumble about changing membership software.

Simon: Hi Simon! Thanks for the feedback! I'm going to shoot you an email to gather some more info. :)

Great Idea. I would like to see it not limited to checkout such that it can be added at any time as long as the membership is valid.
