What is the Payment Processor?

As part of setting up an organization's account in GrantsConnect, all organizations must specify the party that will be responsible for handling grant payments. This party is known as the Payment Processor and enabled in your account by the Implementation team.

Available processors include:

• Client - The client (i.e., organization) handles the processing and disbursement of grant payments to recipients through their bank via ACH or check.

• YourCause - YourCause handles the processing and disbursement of grant payments to the recipient through our bank via ACH or check. After you send a batch to processing, the YourCause Processing Tool handles the process from there.

• Client and YourCause - Either YourCause or the client handles the processing and disbursement of grant payments. You can specify the party responsible when you create payments.

Note: The processor applies to cash payments only.
