More on DynaPay
Dynapay is an option for donating through Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT), which allows you to set up a monthly donation through your personal checking account.
Dynapay is strictly for reoccurring donations, one-time donations may not be made through this route.
You can set up your reoccurring donation by going to
http://www.adventuresinmissions.org/dynapay/ and completing the required fields.
Donations through Dynapay typically take 1-2 weeks to be processed and will be withdrawn from your account on either the 3rd or the 18th of the month — you decide.
You may set up an end date for reoccurring donations when you set up your initial DynaPay account. I need to have all funds by February of 2014!
If you do not select an end date you MUST submit a written request (fax, letter, e-mail) to Donor Relations to stop your reoccurring donation. This will NOT happen automatically. A two weeks advance notice must be provided to stop any future reoccurring donations.
IMPORTANT: All donors need to STOP their reoccurring donations after the participant’s 6th month on the field. This is by the end of February 2014 for my race.
There is no processing fee charged when using Dynapay!
When filling out the web page it will ask two questions that are essential in making sure your donation goes toward our trip:
Which person or person to Support: Bridget Cundelan
Which Program/Department of AIM: World Race
