When using REACHpay as your payment gateway, you can manage your information from directly within your Admin Console.

Testing Donations using REACHpay#

As with any new payment gateway, we always recommend you run some test donations once REACHpay is set up.

To begin, go to Settings > Donation Setup > Payment Gateway tab.

If REACHpay is successfully configured, you will see the screen above.

Here, we provide you with various testing credit card numbers to use to test out the donation process in REACH. We recommend running some test donations as an Admin and as a Supporter.

Note: The expiry date and CVC number can be any date/number of your choosing.

To test from your Admin Console, go to Donations > + New Donation. Enter in a test donation using the testing cards provided. Be sure to check that the donation was successful.

To test as a Supporter, go to your public REACH site, and add a donation using a testing card. We then recommend you login in to your Admin Console and review the donation to ensure it is complete.

Enable REACHpay#

As you go through the setup process, you will notice the Status area on the right-hand side. Once your setup is complete, your Charges and Payouts are enabled and you have completed testing on both the Admin and Supporter sides, you will have the option to Enable REACHpay.

To enable, simply click the Enable REACHpay button as shown below:
