Introduction

Recurring donations make up a core pillar of support for your mission. Our CRM can help you build, nurture, grow, and manage a successful monthly giving program. With higher-than-average retention rates, recurring donations can be counted on to keep your nonprofit growing. Enhance communication and automate donation collection to focus on increasing your nonprofit’s impact. Sustainers are donors who choose to make regular and ongoing donations to your organization CharityEngine provides easy management of these recurring donors and their donations through our Sustainer App.

Introduction - A Basic Understanding of Sustainer Structure within CharityEngine

Similar to Pledges, Sustainers are structured first by creating a 'sustainer account'. Sustainer accounts are typically used in instances where a donor plans to give on a recurring basis (monthly, quarterly, annually, etc.) without a planned end date. The recurring account is the basis of capturing the donor, their 'recurring' donation amount, start dates, frequency of payment, and payment amounts. Other attributes can be assigned to the sustainer record including funds, initiatives/campaigns, solicitor, associated opportunity, etc. 

Once a sustainer account has been established, invoices/installments will be generated (either manually or automatically based upon the assigned set up). Invoices allow CharityEngine end users to determine if payment has been received or payment is outstanding. Note: invoices are also referred to as "installments".

Once an invoice/installment is open, a transaction will connected to the open invoice/installment. If payment is successfully received, the invoice/installment will be closed. If payment is not received - or the payment was declined (i.e. declined credit card or ACH payment), the invoice/installment will remain open to allow CharityEngine users to track outstanding balances. 

As payments are collected with a unique transaction ID, the sustainer account will reflect the total collected since the start of the sustainer account. 

In this example, the donor "Ted Doe" has committed to monthly recurring gift of $15.00. To date, $555.00 has been collected, starting on July 1, 2021. The last monthly payment was scheduled for 07/1/2024 and the next payment is scheduled for 08/1/2024. The upcoming 08/01/2024 invoice/installment can be located on the Collection tab. Prior payments (approved, declined, pending) can be located on the Payments tab and will reflect the specific transaction ID associated with this Sustainer Account.

Instructions - Creating a New Sustainer

Step 1: Create new sustainers by navigating to the Transaction App > Sustainers > Search & Manage. In the right side toward the top select  to create a new record. 

General Tab

Step 2: The General tab contains the basic information to fill out for the sustainer.

Contact Tab

Step 3: Associate the new sustainer account with a contact under the Contact tab.

Payment Info Tab

Step 4: Indicate the currency type and the payment type the donations will be made in. This can be changed later.

Attribution Tab

Step 5: If the sustainer will have an attribution with each payment, indicate it here.

 

Refunding/Voiding a Sustainer Payment

Step 6: Refunding or voiding a sustainer payment is the same as refunding or voiding any other transaction. Please see our Refunding and Voiding documentation for more details. However, there is one notable difference.

When you find a sustainer payment under Transactions and try to void or refund it, a pop-up box will appear first.
A caution will appear reminding you to confirm receipt of the transaction prior to issuing a refund or credit.
It will ask if you would like to cancel the invoice/installment. Yes is selected by default. If you select No, the processor will try billing the invoice/installment again, because it will still be marked as Active and unpaid. Choose Yes to cancel the invoice/installment and complete the refund or void.

Instructions - Converting a One-Time Payment to a Sustainer

If a donor made a one-time payment but intended the payment to be the initial recurring payment series, you can easily convert this payment in a few quick steps.

Step 1: Navigate to the Transactions App > Transactions > Search & Manage > locate the payment in question > ACTIONS > Convert 

Step 2: You will be presented with a pop-up to select Frequency of sustainer record as well as Next Payment for the sustainer record. Click COVERT.

Step 3: Click OK on the confirmation of "Are you sure you want to convert this transaction into a sustainer account (recurring gift)?

Step 4: You will receive confirmation of the sustainer record creation. 

Step 5: Now, you will see the new sustainer account with a total collected amount of $10.00 based upon the original one-time transaction. The next scheduled billing date as assigned in step 2. On the Payments tab, the original one-time transaction will be showcased here as a Sustainer type.

Sustainer Email Communication - Declined/Failed Payment Communication Series

The ability to identify and proactively communicate with donors is critical when a recurring payment has failed. This may be due to an expired card, as an example. CharityEngine makes it easy for you to create a proactive communication series designed to be initiated if a sustainer fails to make a successful payment. With development of an email communication series, you can proactively have donors update their payment information. 

Step 1: Create your communication by navigating to the Campaign App > Create & Publish > Creative. Click the plus sign in the top right, select email message.

Step 2: Create your content 

1. Note: To recreate the Update Your Payment Information button, highlight the language and navigate to the Content menu> click Special links > select Sustainer Payment Link
   
   

Step 3: Click SAVE to secure your changes.

Step 4: Now that the email creative has been created, begin to create the automated communication series. Navigate to the Campaigns App > Automate > Communication Series > click plus sign in top right > click Failed Payment > Continue

Step 5: Name the communication series (required), select date range and description and click CREATE

Step 6: Double click or drag and drop the Email Step to "Add Step Here".

Step 7: Hover over the newly added email step and click on the pencil icon to attach the creative developed in step 1.

Step 8: Click SAVE and on the pop up ensure your series settings are correct. Click Save on the pop up once they are correct.

Note: A query will be automatically created designed to identify active (1) sustainers who have outstanding invoices/installments with balances > $0 and failed collection attempts for the day prior.

Step 9: Initiate the Declined Communication Series by returning to Campaigns App > Automate > Communication Series > locate your series > ellipsis dots> Launch

Step 10: The communication series will now report as Active. Navigate to the ellipsis to pause or delete in the future. Under Campaigns App > Create & Publish > Initiatives to monitor sending performance. 

Note: If an initiative status returns as Failed, hover over the Failed label to determine reason of failure - this could include no audience members in that daily send. 

When your donor receives the Failed Payment Communication Series, the Update Your Payment Information will be linked to the Bill Payment App allowing the donor to self-service and provide updated payment information.

How to Configure Your Billing and Auto Deactivation

As a part of good data hygiene, deactivating sustainers who have had several declined payments is an important action. This will prevent the database from trying to charge donors who have not updated their payment information. This action will also ensure that accurate reporting of lost future revenue. 

You will need to configure your billing and auto deactivation settings to have CharityEngine automatically deactivate sustainers after a certain number of failed payments.

First, you will need to configure your billing settings. Navigate to Configuration > Billing > Settings> Collection Tab.

You will need to configure the number of collection attempts, or how many times per billing period that an attempt was made to charge the sustainers payment method, for both Credit Card and ACH.

Note: The reason there are different rules for Credit Cards vs ACH is that additional collection attempts for ACH can cause the donor to be charged by their bank for the failures. Our guidance is that users configure only one attempt per invoice/installment for ACH sustainers.



You will also need to configure how many days will pass in between the attempts.



Once your configurations have been made for Billing attempts, you will need to configure your setting for sustainer deactivation.

To configure your auto sustainer deactivation settings, navigate to Configuration > Sustainers > Deactivation. You will need to configure the settings for both Credit Card and ACH, just as you did for the billing configurations

The first setting you need to configure is the frequency. This will determine how far back CharityEngine will look for failed payments. For example, if you want the system to search for the last 3 months, you would enter 3 into the frequency units back.  Frequency units refers to the number of invoice/installment periods regardless of the frequency type, meaning if someone is a monthly donor, then the deactivation job would go back three months, if the donor is a quarterly donor then the tool would evaluate on the last three quarters.

Next, you need to determine how many declined payments within the frequency units it will take to auto deactivate the sustainer.

With the above configurations, if a sustainer has had 3 consecutive declined payments within the last 10 months, quarters, years, etc (depending upon their configured frequency), they will be auto deactivated.

Note: The auto deactivation configurations and the billing configurations directly impact each other and for the system to work properly, they must not have conflicting configurations. For example, if your collections attempts are set to 3 attempts in your billing configurations and your subsequent declines is set to 10 declines, CharityEngine will never auto deactivate any sustainers. Only 3 attempts will be made per billing cycle, therefore there will never be 10 declined payments. Example: 3 attempts x 3 frequency units = 9, but the threshold to deactivate is 10.

The last configurations that will need to be set are the cancel type and the status. Use the dropdowns to select your type and status.

Once you have configured your billing and auto deactivation settings, it is helpful to create a trigger to automatically deactivate the sustainers.

Step 4: Now that the email creative has been created, begin to create the trigger by navigating to the Automation App > Workflows > Triggers > Create New > Type: Sustainer Deactivation (auto) > NEXT

Step 5: Add your Date Trigger Job Name (required), adjust start date, email notifications for each job, and adjust the email subject as needed. Click NEXT

Step 6: Review your job details and click Process to initiate the trigger job. 

Step 7: You will be navigated to the Workflow Trigger Jobs listing screen. Navigate to ACTIONS > Schedule

Step 8: Enter your Schedule Name (required) and start date. The Data Job will autofill. Click SAVE to secure and expose additional options.

Step 9: Navigate to the Notification tab to update any recipients to receive notification. Then navigate to the Trigger tab to schedule the frequency in which sustainers should be deactivated. In this example, sustainers who failed payment based upon configuration frequency will occur once a week on Mondays at 800am. 

Step 10: Click SAVE to secure.

Email Communication - Reactivation for Lapsed Sustainers

Sustainer Re-activation can be needed for several reasons. If a sustainer account has expired or their form of payment has been declined, you may want to attempt to collect for a few months and then cease collection attempts. As a final attempt, you can send them a re-activation email that will provide a link to a re-activation form. The form will allow the sustainer to update any of their information that may have changed and re-activate their account. If no action is taken, the donor's sustainer record will be deactivated systemically for proper reporting and forecasting of future fundraising dollars. This will encourage your sustainer to continue to support your mission.

Step 1: Create your communication by navigating to the Campaign App > Create & Publish > Creative > Create New

Step 2: Create your content 

1. Note: To recreate the Update Your Payment Information button, highlight the language and navigate to the Content  tab > click Special links > select Sustainer Payment Link
   
   

Step 3: Click SAVE to secure your changes

Step 4: Create a query to identify deactivated sustainers. Begin by navigating to the Automation > General > Queries > Create New > Filter: Donations > Select: Sustainers > click CONTINUE 

Step 5: Add the following to your query

1. Fields: Sustainer ID, Contact ID, Termination Date
2. Filter:
   1. Active field -  Equals "0"  (representing inactive)
   2. Termination Date - Equals "Last 30 Days" (use the beaker icon to select)
   3. Cancel Type - Equals "Cancelled by system"  

The query should appear as below - click SAVE and Name (required) the query. 

Step 6: From the Ellipses (to the right of the Save button) select Automated Email

Step 7: Enter your Name of the schedule (required), enter Dates, and locate/select the Message created in step 1. Click SAVE. 

Step 8: Schedule the email communication by navigating to the Trigger tab

Under Campaigns App > Create & Publish > Initiatives to monitor sending performance. 

Note: If an initiative returns as Failed, hover over the Failed label to determine reason of failure - this could include no audience members in that daily send. 

When your donor receives the Failed Payment Communication Series, the Update Your Payment Information will be linked to the Bill Payment App allowing the donor to self-service and provide updated payment information.
