Choosing the right payment gateway is the most important step in building a successful recurring giving program. While many gateways support one-time gifts, recurring donations require specific technical capabilities to handle automated, scheduled billing securely. By connecting a compatible gateway to GiveWP, you can ensure that your supporters’ ongoing contributions are processed reliably without requiring manual intervention from your team or the donor.

Each payment processor handles subscriptions differently, ranging from Stripe’s seamless on-site experience to PayPal’s off-site management. In this section, you will find instructions on how to sync your gateway’s “webhooks” or “IPN” settings with GiveWP. These connections are vital because they allow the gateway to tell your website when a recurring payment has been successfully processed, failed, or cancelled, keeping your donor records and financial reports perfectly up to date.
