Is the entity that will be monetarily responsible for the donation. There are three actor values to choose from based on the merchant’s preference:
Merchant: The merchant is solely responsible for funding the donation.
Customer: The customer is solely responsible for funding the donation.
Merchant/Customer Match: The merchant will match the donation amount of the customer, and both are responsible for funding their donation amount.
The donation type option is the method used to calculate the monetary donation amount. There are three options available for the merchant to choose from:
Fixed: A fixed donation amount can be set within the Fixed Amount input.
Percentage: The donation amount will be calculated as a percentage of the adjusted merchandise total (subtotal). The percent amount can be set within the Enter Percentage input.
Round-up: The donation amount will be calculated as a round-up of the monetary value to the right of the decimal point (i.e., USD: cents). This round-up is calculated using the order total and will always cause the order total to calculate to a whole monetary value (e.g., $39.49 will round to $40.00 and the donation amount would calculate to $0.51).
