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.
