How-to: Limit Eligible Donors to Certain Geographic Areas
Restrict the locations of eligible donors for your Campaign.
There may be times when you need to limit eligible donors to certain geographic regions (e.g., a Raffle might need to be restricted to a specific state, or a Sweepstakes might need to be restricted to the U.S.). You can limit geographic access to your Campaign through your payment processor or by adding a required notice at checkout.
Use Stripe or PayPal
While RallyUp does not offer the ability to limit purchases based on location, Stripe and PayPal do:
- Stripe: Enable Stripe Radar for Fraud Teams and create rules to restrict payments. Contact Stripe for more information.
- PayPal: Block certain types of payments, such as those in different currencies or from non-U.S. accounts.
Add a Notice to Checkout
Add a special notice to checkout to inform donors of geographic restrictions. You can even require donors to acknowledge and accept the terms before completing their purchase: How-to: Add a Notice for Donors During Checkout.
