Millie makes it easy to set up a recurring monthly donation to a nonprofit you care about — so you can give consistently without having to think about it every time.
How to set up a recurring donation
- Go to the nonprofit search page or browse active company campaigns
- Find and click on the nonprofit you'd like to support
- On the nonprofit’s profile page, scroll to the “Monthly Donation” section
- Select a suggested amount or enter a custom one
- When prompted, add a personal email address (👇 see below)
- Click Set Recurring Donation — and you're all set!
Your recurring donation will now process automatically each month.
Why Millie asks for your personal email
When you set up a recurring donation, Millie will automatically ask you to enter a personal email address. This is to ensure you have continued access to the Millie platform regardless of your employment status with your current company. (Your recurring gift keeps running until you cancel it, even if you leave your company, so retaining access is critical!)
With your personal email address, you’ll also be able to access tax receipts, see your giving history, and donate any additional funds from your wallet.
🙋 Already have recurring donations set up? You can add or update your personal email any time. Follow the steps in How to Add a Personal Email to Your Millie Account. If you've already left your company and can't log in, contact team@milliegiving.com for help.
How recurring donations are processed
- Monthly charge: Your recurring donation will process once a month on the date you originally set it up
- Primary source: It will deduct from your Millie wallet if funds are available
- Backup method: If your wallet doesn’t have enough funds, your default payment method will be charged
Note: Millie has a $5 minimum charge when processing donations from a credit or debit card. If your recurring donation is below $5 and there are no funds in your wallet, you’ll be charged $5 and the remaining balance will stay in your wallet for future use.
