Enable your site for donations and allow customers to send you an amount of money of their own choice
Online donations are a phenomenon that has been getting a foothold in recent years more and more: users make donations to support cultural projects, to collect for fundraising initiatives, to express their gratitude for a service or a product they have received.
Whether it is a matter of few euros or of considerable amounts, if you want to create a site that gives you the possibility to make donations, what you need is certainly a simple solution, as versatile as possible.
It is generally rather hard to obtain selfless contributions from our customers, especially considering how hard it generally is to convince them to buy something, which is why a donation system needs to be quiet simple to use and efficient.
In order to meet this need and offering the opportunity to turn a simple e-commerce store in a tool designed to collect donations, we have created YITH WooCommerce Donations!
Due to the constant increase of e-commerce shops, online payments become more and more secure and so also the possibility to make donations.
Besides charity associations and non-profit projects online, also owners of medium size e-commerce sites may need such a way of money transfer (think you are giving a free product and you want to give users the possibility to contribute freely to finance your work).
And you know how difficult it is, if not even impossible, to set your e-commerce shop so that you can allow a payment of a variable amount, amount that users themselves choose just before paying.
Well, YITH Donations for WooCommerce aims exactly to make all this easy to set up and with few simple clicks: associate a donation to a product or give the possibility to your users to make donations to your site, counting on the stable and rich WooCommerce plugin.
This plugin was designed to represent the best solution for both those who are moving their first steps into online sales and veterans of digital marketing.
Thanks to its functions, such as the chance to add donation forms to several products or the chance to make the donation optional or secondary to the shortcode that will allow you to display this plugin freely on your website, you will be able to set up your donation system right now and with no need for technical assistance.
This is the ideal scenario for charity companies, creative people who wish to be sustained by their followers, collective funding projects and much more!

Not a donation plugin in realityThis plugin is full of surprises, bad ones all from of this coming from the support team:
1- It's not a donation plugin it's an addition to a "basic" product price.
2- The donation product can be only one. You cannot have two or more donation products. there is
3- The subscription option works only with the premium version of the Subscription plugin, although in their integrations part in the documentation there is no mention to this. although the free version of YITH Subscription plugin can work fine by itself. and in reality it will cause you more issue, as the parent product in set to 0/mo and the donation will be set to $X as a one-time although it's a subscription, you will get angary donors.
Don't waste your time with this one

Hi there!
We're sorry your experience with our plugin wasn't as great as the rest of our users' is. We can confirm the developer did his best to help you with all the questions and assistance you needed but the specific scenario you were looking to achieve is not possible with our plugin, he confirmed that when he first replied to you.
Regarding your statements, the donation option can be added to product pages linking it to a product, as a form to a page using the related shortcode, or to the Cart page using the related option. You can have these three different donations added to the same cart, as long as the donation option linked to a product is added with that one product to the cart.
About the premium version of YITH WooCommerce Subscription being required in order to take advantage of the integration, as you can understand it takes us a lot of time and effort to develop and offer updates + support for such integration so we cannot offer it for free. We apologize if it wasn't clear in the YITH Donations for WooCommerce plugin documentation, we list the integration inside the "Premium version settings" section for that reason and clarify the premium version is necessary on the plugin page, in the "Plugin integrations". We thank you for pointing that out and we'll make sure to clarify that in our documentation.
Best regards!
