We need the ability to allow donors to have more flexibility in choosing their pledge schedule. We allow our donors to pay off pledges over 10 years but the current maximum is 5 years. We currently use the Online Express forms to do this. I know BB wants to move from Online Express at some point but in order to do this, the donation forms in Online Giving needs to have more flexibility in letting donors choose a payment schedule that works for them, whether monthly, quarterly, or annually.

They merged the bill me later idea into this one, even though they're not the same and "bill me later" option isn't available. Obnoxious

I also do not see any Bill Me (option to send in payment at a later date) in either the Donation forms or the batch input. Looks to me like nothing new here.

This is great news. Sorry if I'm missing it, but was the Bill Me option added as well?

I am excited to announce that we have shipped a pledge feature for Standard Donation Forms, generally available to all RENXT customers today. For any additional feature requests related to pledge/automated pledge, please create a new Idea. Thanks!

A pledge form is useless to us unless it has a "Bill Me" option. NOT everyone uses the pledge form for automated pledges. We use a pledge form so that constituents can make an online pledge to the church. If they decide to pay via credit card or direct debit they can enter that information, but we have many donors who give through DAF's or by check. Anthony Gallo, please add the "Bill Me" option. Thanks!!!

Pledges are available in NXT forms now which is great, but only automated ones. OLX had a "bill me" option which we still find essential. During the PUB just now, I asked if there is a plan to add that option and was told no. We need that option added!

@samanthamcguin - Any update on this idea and implementation?

A large part of our budget revenue is pledges. I had no idea when we upgraded to NXT that pledges cannot be applied in NXT and must use database option for this. This needs to be implemented in NXT!

• Yes @SusanTodaro - apply recurring gift to pledges

• We have annual pledges - with installments all falling in a fiscal year

• We also have multi-year program - with installments falling across several years (usually 3-5 year periods with rare exceptions beyond that)

Regarding pledges, will we be able to apply recurring gifts to pledges in NXT? THAT would be a game changer!

Hello voters! We'll have an updated timeline on when pledge will be coming to our standard donation form in April's product update brief. In the meantime, I'm collecting additional information about pledge timelines as we make a final determination of how we allow donors to set their pledge duration.

If you're interested in sharing how pledge durations work for your organizations, please share your feedback on this survey! https://forms.office.com/r/ciYcrY2q64

It blows my mind that on database you can have pledge options but no options for who covers processing fees, but then NXT has the processing fee options but no pledge options. We are starting a capital campaign and did not budget for covering potentially millions of dollars in CC fees solely because the form that offers pledge options (which we need for these larger gifts), doesn't have fee options. Based on this forum, people have been asking to make this change for a long time. Please do something soon.

So disappointed...we switched to BB products for our online giving and 99% of what we do is pledge based. Makes no sense at all.

Not having a pledge function in NXT forms is a deal breaker and the only reason we do not move to NXT forms.

the NXT forms are creating more work. It does not inherit any of the pledge data when I apply the payment. I have to manually add anything from Attributes, the gift reference etc. The NXT forms also creates too many duplicate records. It assumes that people will always put in the exact same information each time. We deal with a lot of organizations and they have the assistants fill out these forms.

We will move to using the NXT forms as soon as there is a pledge function, until then we will continue to use OLX. The NXT forms look so nice and have some other features we really love, but not having the pledge function is a deal breaker.
