I have a customer who wants to donate $5 to America's 2nd Harvest. She added it to her bill and is paying with credit card. Is there a way to collect this money? I do not want to turn her away if so.
 
You can type in an amount in the round up box in PP. I have had guest add more than enough to round up.
 
Shawnna is correct - in PP, near the bottom of the form, is a field that automagically calculates the Round Up to the next dollar. Just add the amount of the customer's Round Up donation in that field.
 
I love that we can do this. One customer last week added a $20 donation to his order!!!!
