There are two primary ways to edit a recurring donation in GivingFuel! If you have full user permissions, we recommend using the Contacts tab to edit a donors recurring donations, as this allows you to view and edit all of a donor's recurring donation activity at once.

If you have limited user permissions we recommend editing the recurring donation from the Donations tab.

FAQs

Can you update the CVV or expiration date without having to re-enter the full credit card information again?

To update the CVV and billing information on file, the system will require the admin to add the full credit card information again.

If a donor originally chose to donate a set number of payments, can they later change their donation to unlimited?

If a donor originally chose to donate a set number of payments, the system will only process that set number of payments, and cannot be changed to unlimited later. To change the donation to unlimited recurring donations, we recommend creating a new recurring donation.
