Vision2 offers several options for your donors to login to online giving. This article provides a list of those available options.

Individual Profile Authentication Section

To see a list of authentication types associated with an individual profile, click on the Details button (located at the top of the individual profile) and scroll down to the Authentication section.

The Authentication section provides the following information for each authentication type:

Authentication Type: This is the login method used by the individual

Status: This indicates whether the login method is active or not

Action Buttons: there are two actions buttons available for an authentication type:

  • Resend Verification: clicking this button resends the email with the link your donor needs to click to verify their account (verifying the account makes it active and available for use). Please note: if you are using a third party authentication type, this button will not be available.

  • Delete Authentication: clicking this button removes an authentication type from the donor profile. This is helpful if the donor needs to register a new email address or mobile number for their profile. Please note: if you know the new email address or mobile number, you can add it to their profile before they register. This allows the new login to associate with their existing profile instead of creating a duplicate profile.
