How To Edit The Donate Buttons

All GiveEasy donation forms come with the ability to donate via credit card or Apple Pay and Google Pay if the donor has this set up. If you have connected your PayPal account to the GiveEasy platform then donating via PayPal will also be an option.

You can edit the look of your credit card and PayPal donation buttons with the GiveEasy editor by following the steps below. With Apple Pay and Google Pay donation buttons you will not be able to adjust the look of these buttons and they will appear like below.
