Have an option when making a gift shop sale to round up the final amount to the nearest dollar and the difference gets donated to the museum
I was at the Toledo Museum of Art last week and when I was in the gift shop they did this really cool thing. I was asked if I would like to round up my sale amount to the nearest dollar and donate the difference to the museum. For example, if my sale came to $37.18, it rounded up to $38 and $.82 was made into a donation to the museum. It would be great if Altru could have this capability - there could be a box that you can choose that rounds the sale up and makes the difference a donation to the annual fund or something like that. I can see this working for gift shop sales the most since there is change (because of tax). The front desk usually deals with whole numbers and doesn't have tax, so I don't see it being used there as much.
Altru - is this something you can look into?

This is a simple feature provided by most other POS systems. Altru should be providing this feature to their customers.

Was just at the AAM conference in Denver and the DAM gift shop had this option - brought it back to my team to see if we could...and it is not something Altru does. Could this feature be added?

Yes, This would be a great value to the OKCMOA!!!

We have two seasons a year we do a "round up" promotion. It would be so helpful not to have to manage this by hand.

This request is about to be 4 years old in January 2020. Our org would definitely take advantage of this function at the admissions desk and store. ALTRU - is there any feedback you can offer please?

I did this at the last museum I worked at and in a year $18,700 was donated. It really works! Some people just by asking to round up actually will donate as much as $20.00

We absolutely needs this in Daily Sales! Missing opportunities!

Yes, this would be fantastic!

Several grocery stores already do this. Our staff keep asking why we can't. (Note: no one on staff programs code!) But someone has invented that wheel.

This is a few years old and we're still asking for it. Addtionally, this idea hasn't been reviewed yet. Can you guys make this happen?

This would be a really great thing to have. As at the institution I work at, before we transitioned to ALTRU, we were able to take Round Ups on Ticket sales, and that difference would go towards our fundraising designation. For us, those round ups made up a good amount of the funds we brought into our Annual Appeal. Not having this option with ALTRU really does put a damper on our fundraising, as patrons no longer have the simple/easy way of doing round ups. Would love to see this idea come to fruition soon.

We would really love this feature to round up for conservation!

We definitely need this feature! We already do it manually in Daily Sales with our donation button but it would make the process so much easier! Most drug stores and fast food restaurants are already doing this and I feel like the software that a science and technology center uses should be cutting edge not lagging behind!

This would be perfect for us, as an Art Museum. Many people already donate their loose change after a transaction, but card-holders do not have that availability. Even the smallest amounts can add up!

The Morton Arboretum in Lisle, IL does this and would be interested in this if they used Altru.
