What is the Donor Cover Charge or DCC?
With DCC, your donors have an option to cover the additional transaction/processing fees associated with their gift, ensuring that 100% of their donation goes towards supporting the institution's cause.
DCC is a voluntary option, and your donors can choose whether to cover the transaction fees or not by checking on DCC within the payment form.

Admins can add transaction fees for the payment gateways on the platform.

Donors who pay for the transaction fees have a heart symbol next to their gift amount on the gifts tab.
The Gift Export also identifies which donor has paid for the transaction/processing fees.
