AGREED. In our recent campaign, I was notified of lost donations due to the language and process of ACH. I am considering other software since this is creating a negative impression of our online fundraising. For our organization, this is NOT the "suggested method" as written on the campaign page. Please resolve ASAP! Thank you.

Hello, I love GiveLively but the ACH option will be a barrier to your YE giving. Unfortunately if this isn't resolved, we will need to move to another software. It is confusing for donors, buggy, and the language presented is problematic.

Credit card should be the first option. Also, need option to turn off ACH as an option if it continues to be buggy and frustrating for users.

Just wanting to echo what many other have written... we're fairly new to Give Lively and have gotten feedback from donors who are not comfortable using another third party processor and providing bank log in information. I've had a few folks come to me confused and uneasy.

Echoing the other sentiments, we need an option to remove the ACH payment if it requires bank login information. Have had donors (representing tech companies) express discomfort with this method especially being the first and "suggested" option when that suggestion is not coming from us.

First donor to our first campaign today wrote...

"This is great, and I would love to make a donation. But it looks as if the only option is to make a donation through a bank account? Seriously? No PayPal or credit card? Am I just misreading the page?

Steven"

So, our donors are having problems finding their path to CC and PayPal. I think it's mostly an UX issue and it could be browser based. When I look at the page in Firefox on my Android phone, it looks fine to me. Same in Chrome on my desktop Mac.

We, too, need to be able to remove the ACH payment option. As a technology policy NPO, we look like we don't know what we are doing if we "suggest" using Plaid. (Plaid works by convincing donors to enter their bank account passwords, and then logging in as the account holder and screen-scraping their account information, and saving the password cleartext for future/ongoing screen-scraping. No one should be encouraged to divulge cleartext passwords to third-party sites!) We tried a workaround of writing a "Please don't use the ACH option that will show up." message, but that was confusing and still reflected poorly on us, and Give Lively, too.

We have received negative feedback both from donors and members from our board on the use of Plaid for ACH donations. There are security concerns (nothing is completely secure on the internet) and we do not want to be liable for any data breeches that may result. This is particularly problematic in the way the language is in the platform - it sounds like we, the organization, are recommending - and asking - our donors to use Plaid. It's actually Give Lively making that recommendation but you can't tell that from the front facing user experience. Please add an option to remove the ACH payment option.

We would love the option to turn the pay by Bank Account feature off. Especially if it is via Plaid. This is very problematic for almost everyone who uses it - including tech savvy individuals. It frustrates donors, it frustrates staff. Let us decide if this appears as a donation option or not.

Having the ACH option first caused confusion for one of our staff who tested the donation page. They thought it was the only option and did not like that they had to enter bank info. It would definitely be helpful to have an option to reorder the payment options so that Paypal and credit card options are shown first.
