CauseVox has launched Pledge Now, Pay Later: a state-of-the-art digital pledge form that\u2019s designed to help you get more pledges online, automatically fulfill them, and make today&#8217;s donors happy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With Pledge Now, Pay Later (PNPL), pledges will never be the same! Here&#8217;s a look at how your nonprofit can benefit from the new PNPL forms on CauseVox:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pledge Now, Pay Later Forms Help You Increase Gift Size<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/causevox.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/auto-pledge.gif\" alt=\"auto-pledge-gif\" class=\"wp-image-45359\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>With PNPL, any donor can become a major donor for your nonprofit, because donors are able to break out larger gifts into installed payments over a period of time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you ask your average donor for a $1000 donation, it&#8217;s a big commitment on the spot. But, if you ask someone to give $1000 over the course of a year, you\u2019re really just asking them for $80 a month. That way, large gifts become approachable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>PNPL allows you to get larger amounts in a flexible way that works for your donors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here&#8217;s how PNPL works:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Your donors can select a pledge tier or enter in their own custom pledge amount<\/li><li>Donors can set their own period of installed payments, choosing between monthly or annually<\/li><li>The first installment will be billed immediately, and future installments based on the customized schedule your donor selected.<\/li><li>Your donors will get an automatic email upon completing each installment with an update towards their total pledge and a secure link to manage their payments.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>With PNPL, even your biggest asks become easy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Want more info?
