GiveWP Manual Donations

Description

The Manual Donations add-on records offline donations directly in the GiveWP dashboard, allowing you to log contributions received by check, cash, bank transfer, or ATM without relying on the site’s public checkout. This add-on associates each entry with a new or existing donor, keeps a complete history in the dashboard, and unifies reports, statistics, and campaign metrics regardless of the contribution’s source channel.
