How iDeal Works:
While there is a real-time confirmation of the payment by a donor to the charity and instant balance update, here’s how iDEAL
works behind the scenes:
Donor Initiates Payment
Donor starts making an online donation by selecting their preferred bank.
iDeal Message Sharing
As the donor initiates a payment, an iDEAL message is generated and shared with your charity organization’s bank (the acquirer) and the donor’s bank (the issuer).
Donor Redirected to Complete Payment
The donor is redirected to their bank to log in, complete, and confirm the prefilled payment using their familiar internet banking system.
Your Charity Receives Payment Guarantee
After the completion of the payment, the donor’s bank sends a payment guarantee to the charity organization via the acquirer bank.
Instant Balance Update
Upon completion of payment, the balance is instantly updated in your nonprofit organization’s bank account.
Local, Preferred Payment Methods & Local Currency for EACH Donor
A preferred, convenient payment method not only facilitates an existing supporter but also helps you add more contributors to your cause.
Your fundraising gets a big uplift even if each new donor makes a small contribution.
Stripe with iDEAL Payment Gateway extension allows your charity to collect donations from any part of the world while providing each donor with lots of payment methods to choose from.
Also, facilitate them with payments in their local currency. It supports as many as 135+ currencies.
The supported payment methods include:
- iDEAL (12+ Dutch banks and 60 international financial institutions)
- Credit Cards
- Google Pay
- Apple Pay
- Alipay
- ACH Payments – Direct Bank Transfer
- Visa Card
- MasterCard
- American Express
- JCB Card
- Discover Card
- Diner’s Club, etc.
Even Outside the Netherlands, Allow Donors to Make Direct Bank Transfers:

The ACH payment facility from Stripe allows the donors to make single or recurring donations directly from their bank account.
Note:
The ACH payment method might not work in all countries.
It also involves additional costs linked to the verification of a donor’s account using Plaid.
Alternatively, Stripe.js for verification is a time taking process.
Anyhow, various other payment options are offered against low fees.
