7. On your store - donations are added to the purchase as a product.
How it works
Similar to the fixed amount customer giving Virtue automatically creates a variant on the donation in your ecommerce app for each cause you are giving to.
For round ups the price of this variant is the smallest subunit amount for the currency of your shop. Ie. if your shop's default currency is USD the price of the variant will be $0.01.
Depending on the currency settings of your shop, the ecommerce platform will automatically convert the price to the different currencies you are selling in.
When it is time to round up a purchase, Virtue will automatically calculate how much it will cost to round up the purchase to the nearest whole amount. ie. if the purchase amount is $10.50 then virtue will offer a round up option of $0.50 which will round up the purchase to $11.00.
For the other currencies if the round up variant is already a whole amount then Virtue will offer the customer to add the round up amount to their purchase. Ie. if your base currency is not USD and you sell in USD, depending on your currency settings the round up amount may be $1.00. Therefore Virtue will offer the option of $1.00 regardless of the purchase amount.
