Three steps to your first online gift
Set up your account, connect your bank, publish a campaign. After that, receipts, donor records and payouts happen on their own.
Step 01
We set up your account
Ask for access and we create your organization with you: name, logo, colors, plan and fee settings.
Step 02
Connect your bank through Stripe
A short Stripe verification for your nonprofit — usually about ten minutes. Gifts then settle straight into your bank account; dsiq.ai never holds your money.
Step 03
Publish a campaign and share it
Pick a campaign type, write the story (AI can draft it), then share the link or paste one line of code onto your website.
What happens when someone gives
- 1
The donor gives
A supporter opens your branded giving page, picks one-time or monthly, chooses an amount and decides whether to cover fees. That single choice is all their browser sends.
- 2
The math happens on our side
dsiq.ai looks up your organization's fee settings, computes the exact amount, and hands the donor a secure checkout — nothing about the money is decided in the browser.
- 3
Card entry stays on hosted checkout
Payment details are collected on bank-grade hosted pages. No card data ever reaches dsiq.ai's code or database.
- 4
The gift is recorded once, correctly
The completed payment — not a form submission — is what writes the donor, donation and recurring-plan record, so your books match the bank.
- 5
The receipt goes out
A branded 501(c)(3) receipt sends through DS Relay, with amount, date, EIN and deductibility language read straight from the stored transaction.
- 6
You get paid, and get insight
Funds settle into your own account on your payout schedule, and the new gift immediately feeds dashboards, insights and the AI assistant.
Your donor list stays yours
Every record belongs to exactly one organization. Reports, exports and AI answers only ever see your supporters, and nothing is shared with anyone else.
- Your donors are never pooled with another organization's
- Gift records come from the completed payment, not a web form
- AI drafts; a person on your team reviews before anything sends
- Card details never touch dsiq.ai
Common questions
- Who holds the donations?
- You do. Gifts are processed on your own connected Stripe account and paid out on your own schedule. dsiq.ai is never a custodian of your funds.
- What does the platform fee cover?
- It covers dsiq.ai — hosting, AI, receipts and support — and half of what we earn on it goes back to our conservation partners. If the donor chooses to cover fees, they pay it; if not, it comes out of the gift. Custom plans can run at 0%.
- Do we have to be an outdoors organization?
- No. We build for conservation, watershed, wildlife, sportsmen's and parks groups because that's the world we work in — but dsiq.ai runs fundraising for any 501(c)(3).
- Does the AI ever see another organization's data?
- No. Every AI answer is built from one organization's records only. Your donors are invisible to every other customer, by design.
- Can AI write our tax receipts?
- No — by design. The legal fields on a 501(c)(3) receipt (amount, date, EIN, deductibility statement) are read from the stored transaction. AI never generates them.
- Do donors need an account?
- Never. Donors give on a hosted, secure checkout and manage a recurring gift from a link — there's no password for them to create or forget.
See it with your own campaigns
We're onboarding a small group of organizations now. Ask for access and we'll set up your account with you — half of what we earn goes back to conservation.
