Set the shared foundation
Complete verification and settlement details, then confirm the payment profile and posting mappings used by eligible payment flows.
ALIGNMINT PAYMENTS
Online payments that connect giving and accounting
Accept eligible online payments through a setup that keeps your organization, payment profile, and accounting mappings in view.
Availability depends on completing Giving Setup and the readiness checks that apply to your organization and payment surface.
GIVING SETUP
Start with the organization-level payment foundation
Giving Setup is the parent-level workflow for provider verification, settlement details, your approved payment profile, and required payment-posting mappings. Checkout becomes available only after provider, organization, and accounting readiness checks pass.
Keep child setup consistent
Child organizations inherit the parent setup unless an approved override applies, helping administrators manage payment readiness from the right level.
ELIGIBLE PAYMENT SURFACES
Use payments where your organization is ready
Payment availability is evaluated for each current session and surface. Eligible surfaces can include the following; tax collection is not currently supported.
- Public and staff-entered gifts
- Video Blast gifts
- Tickets for eligible non-taxable events
- Eligible inventory card sales
METHODS AND FEES
Show the right payment choices and rate information
Checkout shows only the payment methods enabled for the organization’s current payment session. Processing rates are determined by your organization’s approved payment profile and may include a percentage plus a fixed per-transaction amount. The applicable rate is shown during Giving Setup and checkout.
PAYMENT LIFECYCLE
Keep the payment outcome connected to the work that follows
Card entry occurs on a processor-hosted checkout. After provider confirmation, Alignmint records the local outcome and processes the related accounting, receipt, and reporting work.
Confirm the outcome
Payment completion requires signed provider evidence and server-side checks for organization, amount, attempt, and provider identity.
Preserve evidence when work continues
Pending or retry states preserve payment evidence without creating another charge while related local work is processed.
REFUNDS AND RECURRING
Use the controls supported for the current payment
Authorized staff can issue an eligible full donation refund. Donors may use hosted billing tools where available; scheduled cancellation is supported when the current capability allows it. Other subscription changes may require support.
SETTLEMENT AND RECONCILIATION
Reconcile with evidence that is actually available
Alignmint connects completed payment outcomes to accounting records and displays exact provider settlement evidence when it is available. Unavailable fee, payout, or settlement values remain pending or unavailable instead of being estimated.
SECURITY BOUNDARY
Keep card entry outside Alignmint
Card entry occurs on a processor-hosted checkout; Alignmint does not store full card numbers. Signed provider evidence and server-side checks help validate the organization, amount, attempt, and provider identity before local payment work proceeds.
AVAILABILITY AND NEXT STEPS
Confirm readiness before you collect payments
Review Giving Setup with the administrator responsible for your organization’s payment profile and accounting mappings. Capability availability depends on the approved profile and current release state.
