  • If the product’s price is in rational value, a pop-up message will appear asking the customer to donate the round-off amount to any campaign of the user’s choice. Users can skip this process if they don’t want to round off the value.

Round Off Donation #

Select Campaigns #

  • Select the campaigns the Admin wants to set for Round Off Donation in the Select Campaigns option.

Round Off Multiplier #

  • Set the multiplier for the Round Off according to your requirement in the Round Off Multiplier option.
  • Let’s suppose your customer is purchasing a product for $25 and donating an amount of $2.5 for any listed or specified donation product. The round-off multiplier will ask the customer to settle the final payment at $ 28.
  • For Example: Suppose if you input the value $8, your cart total will be reached to the nearest number, which will be divisible by 8.
  • Cart Total: $27.35
  • Round off multiplier: 8
  • Now, after 27, your next number, which will be divisible by 8, is 32
  • So, 32 – 27.35 = 4.65
  • Your donation will be $4.65.

NOTE: Round Off will work only if your cart total is in decimal. If there are whole numbers in the cart and checkout page, then the round-off functionality will ignore the whole numbers.

NOTE: The number should be greater than 0. If empty or other value than an integer, it will be considered as 1.
