Merchant Settings

With your givezooks! account you can connect directly to one or more of the supported merchant services below so that you can accept credit cards and other forms of electronic payment online. Transactions will go directly to your merchant account.  Unlike other solutions, givezooks! does not hold the funds - so your organization has more money available more quickly to put towards your services. By using an online merchant service, donations will be easy to track and you won't experience any lost checks or cash.

In order to accept online credit card donations, your organization must be registered with one of the following providers:


Turnkey Payment Processors (See Chart Below)

  • Sage/Axia
  • PayPal Website Payment Standard
  • Amazon Payments

Supported Gateways  (See Chart Below)

With one of our supported gateways, it is highly likely that you can use your existing merchant account.  Please check with your merchant to see which of the gateways below they support.

  • Sage
  • Authorize.net
  • Cybersource

The chart below provides an overview of each. More detailed information can be found by clicking on the links provided to their websites.
