Creating a Donation Cart Add-On

Approving a Drop Request with a Cart Add-On

With Cart Add-Ons you are able to add Sponsorship and Donation items to the Instance Financials that users will be able to add to their registration price while in their shopping cart.


Adding Cart Add-Ons to an Instance

Navigation: Courses & Instances>Courses>Instances>Instance Edit> Financial> Cart Add-On

Note: “There is a registration cost for this instance” must be checked for the Financials tab to appear.

  1. Search for your Course and open an Instance in Edit Mode (or create a new instance).
  2. Scroll down to the Financials section.

4. Click the “Create Additional Cart Items” button at the bottom of the financials tab

5.  Go to the Additional Cart Items section and create a Cart Add-On by clicking on the green Create Cart Items button.


Creating a Sponsorship Cart Add-On

  1. Select Sponsorship from the Item Type dropdown.
  2. Type in the Name and Description and select a revenue project from the dropdown.  This is the account that all profits from the add-ons will go to.

  1. Scrolling down, you will be asked questions about how you want to structure the sponsorship  and set the price.  You can toggle yes or no if participants are required to purchase the item, if discounts apply (which means that if you have applied discounts to the registration price, they will apply to the add-ons as well), if you want the participant to be able to purchase more than one add-on, and whether the price will be a single fixed price or have varying types and price points.  You can also indicate if the participant can set their own price or if you will be setting the price.

  1. You are able to Add Pricing Items by selecting the blue button to continue adding prices.

  1. Once you have added all of your pricing items, click Save.


Creating a Donation Cart Add-On

  1. Select Donation from the Type of Add-On dropdown.

  1. Type in the Name and Description and select a revenue project from the dropdown.  This should be the account that all proceeds go to.

  1. Scrolling down, you will be asked to choose the suggested donation amount.

  1. For this example, I am choosing a single item with a fixed price and moving the toggle to Yes so participants can enter in their own donation amount. Then click Save.

  1. Then Save the Instance.


Add-Ons in the Cart

When a participant adds their course to the Cart, they will see a green button stating Add to Order for any available Add-Ons. You will see the subtotal increase with the Add On amount.

Once they proceed to Checkout, the participant will be able to complete their order, and see the Add-On separately from the registration price in the Order Summary.


Approving a Drop Request with a Cart Add-On

If a participant chooses to drop their registration that has an Add-On, as the Course Admin when going in to Approve the Drop Request (Help Doc on Drop Request and Approving Drop Requests here), you will have the option whether you want to include the Add-On in the Drop Request Approval.

You will see the Add-On as a separate item in the pending Drop Requests, and you can choose to toggle Yes or No to include in the Refund.  Once you make your selection, click Approve at the top of the Drop Request.
