Set Up Recurring Payments

Note: A few important things to know about Recurring Payments:

  • You must set up an account in our database system Kindful to manage recurring payments (see Set Up a Kindful Account below). Even if you don’t want to set up recurring payments there are other benefits to having a Kindful account. Once you have a Kindful user account, you can log into Kindful and check your current membership status to determine if you are up-to-date and make a payment or pledge for the upcoming year. You can also see all your donations since joining Impact 100. 
  • When you set up your recurring payment you have the opportunity to choose a payment method (credit card, bank withdrawal, or Apple/Google Pay) and how often you should be charged for your recurring payments (see Set Up Recurring Payments below).
  • It is up to you to manually calculate the amount of each recurring payment (see Determine Your Recurring Payment Amount below). The tables in that section should help you determine the amount you wish to pay on a regular basis. DO NOT ENTER THE FULL AMOUNT OF YOUR DONATION as the recurring amount. That would cause that amount to be charged to you at each recurring payment. If you are unsure how to calculate a recurring payment, contact us at joinus@impact100indy.org and we will be happy to help.
  • Recurring membership payments can only be used to PREPAY your annual membership. Recurring payments must be completed in the calendar year before the membership year. For example, recurring payments made in 2024 go into the 2025 Grant Pool and are for 2025 membership, payments made in 2025 go into the 2026 Grant Pool, etc. This is because we need to know how much money is in the Grant Pool in January of the year the grants will be given in June at the Annual Celebration Dinner and Meeting.
  • All payments for a membership MUST be completed by December 31 to be a voting member the following year, so you need to divide your total donation by the number of payments you will make between the time you begin the payments and December 31 (see Determine Your Recurring Payment Amount below).
  • Using your user account, you can log into Kindful and change the payment method, amount, frequency, or cancel a recurring transaction at any time. You will be reminded in January of each year to check your recurring payments so you can change the frequency and amount as needed.

Set Up a Kindful Account

  1. Go to https://impact100indy.kindful.com/user/sign_in and click in the upper right corner to Create an Account.
  2. Enter your email, name, and password and click Submit.
  3. Once in Kindful, you’ll be taken to your Dashboard. The Dashboard is where you can see an overview of your information in the system. If the email you entered matches one already in the system from prior donations, the information we already have for you will display. This includes information on previous donations.
  4. Once in Kindful, the left margin of the Kindful screen contains links to the information you can access through your account. For example, you can update your contact information in the Billing or see your previous donations by clicking on Activities.
  5. You can get back into Kindful at any time at https://impact100indy.kindful.com/user/sign_in and clicking on SignIn in the upper right-hand corner to enter your login information.

Set Up a Recurring Payment

  1. Once in Kindful, click on Donate on the top of the left margin to begin setting up a donation. 
  2. Choose the fund for your donation, Membership or Administrative (Operations support).
  3. You’ll be taken to the Payment Summary page, where you can enter the amount you want to be charged for EACH recurring payment (see below on determining your recurring payment).
  4. You can choose to help us by paying the transaction fees.
  5. Choose the frequency for the recurring transaction.
  6. If we don’t already have a payment method on file in Kindful, you’ll be asked to enter your payment information. Note: Your account information is not accessible in Kindful and Impact 100 never sees it.

Determine Your Recurring Payment Amount

Recurring transactions can be set up for annually, quarterly, monthly, biweekly (twice a month), and weekly transactions. It is up to you to manually calculate the amount to be charged with each recurring payment. It should be the amount of your total donation divided by the number of payments you will make from your first payment through December 31. To help you we have provided the tables below as guidance. Go to the table for the Membership Level you want for the following year, look under the month you will make your first recurring payment, and that is the dollar amount you should enter as your recurring payment amount.
