If you are using a theme that was customized prior to October 2025, you may have to implement an upgrade to ensure that you have access to all current functionality. New features include:
Direct debit payments (GBP processing only)
One-time, monthly, and annual donation frequency options on one form
Single-submit express payment options
Streamlined employer and occupation submissions

Identify your stock theme
Every custom theme is based on an original stock theme. If you're unsure of which stock theme is applicable to your website, you can right-click (or CTRL click) on your live website, and select the option to "View page source."
Once you see code on your screen, find the word "parent". The "parent" listed should be the name of the stock theme your custom theme was build off of.
Download theme files
Click on the name of the relevant stock theme below to download a ZIP file. When you open the zip file, you will see a pages_show_donation_v2_wide.html, a _donation_v2_payment_element.scss file.
If your theme is based on the Bootstrap 4 theme, follow these detailed instructions instead of the steps below.
Add the new code to your theme
Under Website > Theme > Current custom theme, confirm that your pages_show_donation_v2_wide.html file does not have a
custombadge next to it. If it does, and you want to retain your existing site-wide donation customizations, we recommend contacting a partner to help you implement the updated functionality.
Upload the pages_show_donation_v2_wide.html and _donation_v2_payment_element.scss files you just downloaded into the “Files” section of your theme.
📌 Note: If you have donation pages that have been customized at the page level, this change will not update those. This will only add the functionality donation pages that have not been customized.
Edit the theme.scss file: add @import "donation_v2_payment_element"; at the bottom of the file and save.
Final Step!
Preview the changes you've made to your theme, and publish the changes to each file.
That's it! Your donors should now be able to use Google Pay, Apple Pay, or browser-saved payment methods to donate on your Donation (v2) pages.
