What Happens After a Donation?

When a donor completes their gift, Give automatically creates a MemberDash account (if one doesn’t already exist).


The donor is assigned the selected membership level. If the donation is recurring, the membership renews automatically with each successful payment. Donors can see their Memberships in the Donor Dashboard.
