TOPIC: Can I accept donations on an event that uses DT Register?

I have a paid admission event that I'd also like people to be able to make a donation to defray expenses.

Can I add the possibility of making a donation, with the people entering the amount that they would like to donate?

There is not a donation feature in DT Register. The only way is to enable partial payments for the event. Set that as optional with a minimum payment amount. This would work for you but you'd need a fee to be calculated I believe for that to work correctly. You could try it with a $0 event and minimum donation of $0 and see if that works. That's your best bet.

I have created a separate registration all together just for sponsors... set it at 0.00 as previously suggested and then create all your fee based fields. I have it set to invoice only, but if you are wanting to accept credit card payments, you could create a set of checkboxes all with different values. If they want to donate a custom dollar amount of 125.00... they can check 100.00 and 25.00 ... I know it sounds silly but if you type in every amount in increments up to your highest value you choose to accept.. the form could get a little messy. It is the only way I can think of creating custom amounts as I have not figured out a way for someone to type in an amount to be charged right away.

Thank you for your reply.

I eventually made a new field as a checkbox with set amounts. They could check all boxes and add up the amounts for their donation, if desired.
