Good morning!

Our university currently accepts only credit cards as payment on our giving site.  We are now looking into alternate payment methods.  An informal survey of about 15 institutions seems to indicate that there's not a frontrunner or preferred vendor.  Half of the sites I looked at accepted credit cards only.  Of the remainder about half offered PayPal, and the rest were either Venmo or Google Wallet.   Our Annual Giving team would like to use Apple Pay to engage a younger audience.

My question is, did you see a bump in giving or see other measurable benefits when you began to offer more up to date payment options?  Or even anecdotally, did you observe greater donor satisfaction?

We have a great many projects on our list for this year, so I'm trying to assess where in our priorities this should fit.

Thank you as always for your help!
