There are dozens of online payment processors in the political arena.
Of the vendors we’ve evaluated, we think Piryx is the best.
Here’s why we think so:
- They charge a relatively low rate (4.5%) and there are no fees or contracts. You don’t need a merchant account.
- They accept both credit card and checking account donations.
- Their payment form can usually be styled to match your website.
- They host the pages on their secure site.
- You never see the credit card or checking account information, so there’s no way for your campaign to leak sensitive data.
- You can easily set up multiple “giving campaigns”, so you can track the effectiveness of your fund-raising efforts.
We don’t get any kind of kickback for recommending this product. We just think it’s the best.
So that’s the product we chose to integrate into our political website templates.
If you have a different preferred vendor, we can integrate with their product for an additional charge.
