    9. The Giving System cannot be used to process membership payments, merchandise payments, or to accept donations that were not made directly by the donor to your organization through the Giving System.
  3. PROCESS OF RECEIVING DONATIONS THROUGH DONATENOW LITE.
    1. When a donor recommends to Network for Good that it distribute its donations to you, NFG-DAF shall grant such donations actually collected  by NFG-DAF to you (provided you are a public charity in good standing with the IRS at the time of distribution), less any amounts retained by Network for Good and NFG-DAF for processing costs, which costs shall be disclosed to you at the time we distribute donations to you. At the time of donation, we give donors the option to pay these processing costs, so that you receive the full donation amount.
    2. If You have signed up to receive disbursements through electronic funds transfer, then all donations to You, net of Fees, shall be disbursed to You within thirty (30) days after the end of each month. If You are receiving disbursements through checks, the aggregate donations totaling at least $9.51, net of processing costs (“Minimum Disbursement Amount”), shall be disbursed to you within thirty (30) days after the end of each month and shall be accompanied by an email statement showing the donations collected and the amount retained by Network for Good.

If the donor does not respond affirmatively to continue with their donation or clear the charge back with their bank within thirty (30) calendar days, then you will be required to return the charge back donation amount to Network for Good within forty-five (45) calendar days from the original email notification.
