Adding Causes / Organisations to Virtue
From September 2023, stores have the ability to add their existing partners and request causes via Virtue.
The Cause you add gets automatically created for your store to support. You can start supporting your added causes right way.
Populating information about your cause
The information you add about your cause will be used on store-front customer facing Virtue assets.
To edit information about your cause, create a new cause or email support@virtueimpact.com.
Fundraising compliance and permissions
When supporting the added Organisation from sales via Virtue, the store is responsible for gaining any required fundraising permissions and ensuring that fundraising is compliant with relevant fundraising regulations.
We recommend gaining fundraising permission from the organisation via a written confirmation prior to going live and supporting from sales.
Going live with Virtue
When stores go live with Virtue, they are able to:
- Raise funds from product sales
- Enable shoppers to add a contribution to their cause
- Display store-front shopper facing messaging about their campaign and cause
- View campaign engagement analytics
- View a count of their upcoming and past donations, as well as orders these are attributed to
- Get prompts about upcoming donations
- Receive donation confirmation receipts
- Track and share their impact/total raised for the cause
Paying donations
Initially the store will be setup to manually pay owing donations to their partner Organisations via their website or into their bank account, depending on the pre-established agreement. Virtue will provide a total donation count, prompts to settle owing payments and a donation confirmation receipt.
To automate donations please email support@virtueimpact.com with details of your partner Organisation's contact. We will reach out to them about automating donations each month.
