What can you get for free with Paymattic?

Paymattic is a versatile WordPress plugin that facilitates payment processing and collects donations for charities within the WordPress platform. The free version of Paymattic provides a solid foundation for any business to collect their payments and for nonprofits to receive their online donations. Here’s a breakdown of what the free version of Paymattic offers:

Ready-made form template

If you plan to receive payments or donations online, you will need web forms to collect data from your customers or donors. Creating a form with Paymattic is easy and beginner-friendly. However, if you want to avoid extra hassle, Paymattic has a solution for you.

Paymattic offers ready-made payment and donation form templates for free. Just open the web form template and use it as is. You can also add additional fields if needed.

However, if you want some advanced pre-made templates, check out the Pro version, it offers access to more than 70 form templates.

Multi-step form

When you create a form, you always need to keep in mind the appearance of the form. If your form looks long, many people will not like to fill it out. However, it is also important to collect data from customers. In this situation, a multi-step form is a great solution for you.

Paymattic offers a multi-step form in the free version to collect more data without scaring away customers. It is a widely used form as it saves space on your website and ensures a conversion rate of almost 300%.

Form fields

Form fields are important for businesses and charities to collect key information. For example, if you are running a fundraising campaign, you need to collect the email address of the leads for further communication, so an email field is necessary here.

Paymattic Pro already offers 40 form fields, 22 of which are available in the free version. Currently, there are three categories of input fields available in Paymattic, namely:

General fields
Donation and product fields
Payment method fields

These input fields are used for different purposes. You can use any input fields in your web form as you wish.

Form entries

Paymattic offers user-friendly listing management features. For example, when customers or donors fill out a form, their data is automatically organized on the vendor or fundraiser dashboard. This feature allows you to easily view and manage all listings on a single page.

The Entries section contains all entries from all forms on your website. It contains the following information:

Name of the form
Name of customer/donor
e-mail
Payment status
Total payment
Payment method
Entry status
Submission date

This feature is a real time saver! With the free version you can check all form entries as well as individual form entries.

Import and export form

It’s not easy to create a form over and over again! If you want to export and import a form from one website to another, Paymattic allows you to do so. The export-import feature allows you to transfer your form from one website to another without having to create a new one.

To export a form from Paymattic, simply select the form and click on the “Export” button. The form will be automatically exported in JSON format. Similarly, you can import forms into Paymattic by uploading the JSON file of any form and clicking on the “Import Form” button. That’s all! You will find your imported form in the All forms Section.

Custom payment amount

Paymattic allows users to set a custom amount in their form. The features allow end users to enter a default value and a minimum value in their form.

This feature is useful if you’re accepting donations for your campaign. Setting a default value on your form helps donors better understand the suggested amount, but still gives them the freedom to donate any amount they want.

Donation progress element

The Donation Progress element is an important feature for creating a donation form. If you want to insert a list of items with fixed prices and a progress bar, the Donation Progress element is the ideal choice.

The progress bar is a unique feature of this field. It shows real-time progress based on the amount of donations received. Paymattic provides donation progress bars for free, so anyone with the free version can easily create an eye-catching donation form using this feature.

PDF/Invoices upon payment

When you run a business, you need to maintain the data of each of your transactions. It is not easy to process a large amount of data manually. To help you with this, Paymattic allows you to quickly generate PDFs.

Besides the transaction details, you can personalize the PDF with a watermark of your company name and logo, colors, and more. The plugin also allows you to email PDF files to the customers. For more information about this feature, check out this blog.
