For Corporate Matching

Help donors check for employer matching

After a completed donation, ScanRaise lets the donor search a curated list of 32 employers and download a PDF populated with transaction details. The donor reviews it and follows the employer's own process. The employer decides eligibility and any match.

Why employer matching requires donor follow-through

The donor may not know the current policy. Donors should check whether their employer offers a program and whether the recipient is eligible.

The employer controls the process. The donor may need to use an HR portal, workplace-giving service, or employer form.

Follow-up happens outside ScanRaise. ScanRaise stores an optional employer name, but it does not submit or track the request.

Employer payments are not reconciled in ScanRaise. The recipient organization must confirm any payment through its own records.

What ScanRaise provides

A completed donation receipt includes a "Request employer match" button. It generates a PDF populated with the donor name, donation amount, recipient name, EIN, and date for the donor to review.

The donor checks the employer's current policy and submits through the employer's HR or workplace-giving process. ScanRaise does not submit the request or determine eligibility.

The donor can optionally add an employer name. ScanRaise stores that name on the donation record; it does not record approval, a match amount, or receipt of employer funds.

The 32-employer lookup is a starting point, not a complete or authoritative directory. Programs, ratios, limits, and eligible recipients can change.

ScanRaise does not integrate with employer portals, track an employer's decision, or reconcile an eventual payment. The donor and recipient organization handle those steps outside ScanRaise.

What donors should expect

Current Policy

Check the employer's own rules

Programs can limit employee eligibility, recipient types, gift amounts, dates, and submission windows. The employer's current policy controls.

Donor Submission

Follow the employer's process

The donor may need to use an HR portal, workplace-giving service, or employer form and provide additional documentation.

Employer Review

Approval is not automatic

The employer decides whether a donation qualifies, the amount of any match, the delivery method, and the review timeline.

Who can use employer matching reminders

Nonprofit annual fund

Annual campaigns can remind donors to check their current employer policy after donating. A reminder does not guarantee eligibility or payment.

Corporate team-building fundraisers

Participants in an internal challenge can check whether their own gifts qualify. An employer-sponsored event does not by itself make every donation match-eligible.

Educational institutions

Alumni can check their employer's program, including whether the school or affiliated foundation is an eligible recipient.

Disease-specific charities

Health-cause organizations can remind supporters to verify recipient eligibility and submission requirements with their employers.

Local and regional foundations

Local organizations can ask donors to check nearby employers. ScanRaise's 32-employer reference list is not exhaustive.

Help donors check for an employer match

Completed donations include the employer lookup and a pre-filled transaction summary for donor review. Employer approval is required. 2.5% flat fee.
