“Receiving checks is 5X more expensive than receiving electronic payments. Sending checks is over 10X more expensive than sending electronic payments.”
Advocating for Electronic Payments
AOGF is committed to encouraging Causes to set up an electronic method for receiving their donations. Checks sent to Causes are frequently lost or become stale-dated if the Cause doesn’t receive or cash them in a timely fashion, resulting in frustration on the part of donors and Causes. AOGF’s model ensures Causes have better record-keeping and that donated funds are received in a reliable and timely fashion without the expensive and limiting processes around check donations.
