1.1. What payment processors does Managed Missions work with?

For processing online donations, Managed Missions currently integrates with three payment processors. The payment processors are: Stripe, Vanco and PushPay. They are very simple to set up from within the "Account Admin" section of your Managed Missions organizations account. All online donations will be routed through your organizations payment processor eliminating the need for your trip participants to set up an account with a payment processor themselves. Each of the payment processors establishes their own transaction fees but Managed Missions does not receive a portion or charge their own transaction fee. Fee details can be found by navigating to the payment processors websites as listed below. Managed Missions is not affiliated with any of these payment processor and specific questions relating to their business should ask through them directly.

Additionally, ManagedMissions offers a URL redirect option for online donations should you choose to use a different system to collect your online donations.

The fees charged by the payment processor are set by them. Stripe has offered a fee of 2.2% plus $.30 per transaction for Managed Missions customers.
