Customizable PayPal Donation Form Template

Nonprofits, charities, and fundraisers need a way to accept donations securely without complicated payment setups or expensive processors.

Without a ready-to-use donation form, organizations spend time building forms from scratch, configuring payment fields, and figuring out how to process one-time or recurring contributions.

The PayPal Donation Form Template from WPForms helps you accept donations through PayPal, collect donor information, and process payments directly on your WordPress site.

Exploring the PayPal Donation Form Template

This template works for nonprofits, community fundraisers, advocacy groups, religious organizations, or anyone collecting contributions online. Here’s what’s included:

Name: Captures donor identity for receipts and recognition.
Email: Provides a contact point for donation confirmations and thank-you messages.
Organization: Collects the donor’s company or affiliation if applicable.
Are you a US taxpayer? (Checkbox): Helps determine tax-deductible donation eligibility.
Type of One Post (Dropdown): Lets donors select donation purpose or campaign category.
Donation Amount (Numbers): Captures the contribution amount directly.
Donation Type (One-Time or Recurring): Allows donors to choose between a single donation or monthly recurring contributions.
PayPal Commerce Payment Field: Processes payments through your connected PayPal account.
Declaration Statement (Checkbox): Confirms donor consent and understanding of donation terms.
Total: Displays the final donation amount before submission.

Payment Options for Donors

When donors complete this form, they can pay using PayPal Checkout, credit or debit cards (entered directly in the form), Apple Pay, Google Pay, Venmo, and other regional payment options.

Payment processing happens through your connected PayPal Business account. All transactions are secure and donors receive confirmation immediately after payment.

How to Customize the Template

Update the “Type of One Post” dropdown: Reflect your specific campaigns (General Fund, Building Campaign, Scholarship Fund, etc).
Change the declaration text: Include your organization’s tax ID number or specific acknowledgment language.
Add custom fields: Collect additional donor information like mailing address (for thank-you cards) or company matching gift details.
Modify donation amounts: Use radio buttons with preset amounts ($25, $50, $100, Custom) instead of an open text field.

Setting Up This Template

Connect your PayPal Business account in WPForms » Settings » Payments. Once connected, import this template, configure your donation settings (one-time or recurring), and embed the form on any page.

For Lite users, a 3% platform fee applies to one-time donations and recurring subscriptions. Upgrade to a Pro plan and get the PayPal Commerce Addon to remove this fee and unlock additional payment features.
