Updated 4 days ago

Accept donations in your Hostinger Ecommerce online store by creating a donation-type product.

Step 1 — Set up payment methods

You can enable two types of payment methods on your website: online payments and manual (offline) payments.

To set it up, access your Store Manager and go to the Settings → Payments.

Step 2 — Create a donation-type product

  1. In the Store Manager, go to Products, and click Add product

  2. Choose the product type: donation

  3. (Optional) Upload product images

  4. Enter the product title, e.g., Donation — it’s automatically used as the meta title of the product page

  5. (Optional) Enter a product subtitle

  6. (Optional) Add a product ribbon

  7. (Optional) Add the product description

  8. (Optional) Add the product additional info sections
  9. Configure donation amounts in the Donation amounts section:
    1. Turn on Suggested amounts to offer ready-made values customers pick with one click. Use Add amount to add more values.
    2. Turn on Custom amount to let customers enter their own amount. Enter a required Minimum amount and an optional Maximum amount.
    3. Turn on Suggested amounts, Custom amount, or both together.
  10. (Optional) Assign a product to a category

  11. Save the product

Create a donation product using agentic mode chat

If you’re using Hostinger AI Builder agentic mode, you can skip the store manager and create the donation product directly in the chat: describe the product and its donation amount options, and the AI sets it up for you. To make changes afterward, ask the chat to update the donation product.

Step 3 — Display the product on your website

Once you create a product, the product page is created automatically. However, the product is not automatically displayed on your website. To display the donation-type product on your manual mode website, use product sections.

Finally, remember to update your website.
