Dwolla can help radio raise money
Not all transactions are designed for profit. After our previous post about non-profits use of Dwolla. We had a nice reaction to it. Signed up a few local Iowa non-profits and have done quite a few meetings as well.
It came up regarding the use of Dwolla for radio purposes. Specifically for fund raisers and for donations to non profit radio.
Dwolla is a great solution for non profit radio and radio accepting donations.
Here is how it works.
- Sign Up. Get your Dwolla ID. If you haven’t yet sign up for a invite. If your a Iowa radio station we will approve you very quickly.
- You can simply announce your Dwolla ID like your phone number.”Please send donations to our Dwolla ID 812-111-1111″ for example.
- Your listeners can simply log in and donate. No forms for them to fill out. No SSL certificates for your web site. No nothing. Just a clear way for them to donate at a very low cost to you.
Your listeners can log into their Dwolla account and make a donation. Simple as that. Your station will get an e-mail letting you know the donation was made and it can automatically be sent to your bank account.
Additional advantages include.
- The radio station can easily give all it’s DJ’s the Dwolla ID to announce. It’s the same number of digits as a phone number.
- The radio station can just have all the donations sent to their bank account. No charge.
- The radio station only has to have one person in accounting with account access.
Dwolla’s payment tool is perfect for radio. No phone number to call. No web site to maintain. Just gratification.
