Donations

This guide will show you how to create a donation product and configure your Acadia POS system to round up transactions and display a custom donation message.

Creating The Donation Item Button
  1. Log in to your Acadia POS Dashboard.
  2. Navigate to Items in the left hand menu.
  3. Click on + New Item.
  4. Enter a name for your donation product (e.g., "Donation").
  5. Locate the Tax Class dropdown menu, select No Tax.
  6. Click Save.
  7. Notate the Product ID # for later use
Configuring The Donation Round Up and Custom Display Message.
1.  Navigate to Settings > General Settings
2. Scroll down to Donation request (round to nearest dollar)
  • Enter in the product ID # created with the Donation item button into DONATION PRODUCT ID
  • Enter the custom message you would like displayed on the front facing screen in DONATION REQUEST (SHOWN ON FRONT SCREEN)
3. Scroll down and press Save.

Now when you start a CC transaction the system will ask customers on the front facing screen whether they agree to make a donation with the text that you specified and round the transaction up to the next full dollar amount.
If you are making a cash transaction, simply add the Donation item into the cart and continue payment for the system to round the total up.
