# How Double the Donation Matching Gifts Works for Donors

> WeGive's native Double the Donation (360MatchPRO) integration shows donors a matching-gift prompt after checkout and automatically submits their donation for employer matching, with status updates flowing back as the match progresses.

## Overview

If your organization has Double the Donation (branded "360MatchPRO")
connected, WeGive automatically submits every successful donation for
corporate gift matching and gives donors a way to find out if their
employer will match. This article covers what the donor actually sees
and how match status gets tracked.

## What happens at checkout

After a donation completes, the donor's receipt includes a link to a
dedicated matching-gift page. On that page, the donor can search for
their employer to see whether a match is available and get a direct
link to their employer's matching-gift form — all handled through Double
the Donation's own widget, so the donor is searching the same employer
database Double the Donation maintains.

Every donation submitted this way carries a unique identifier that ties
the donor's activity on the matching-gift page back to that specific
gift, so status updates land on the right donation.

## What happens behind the scenes

Every successful donation is automatically registered with Double the
Donation — there's nothing the donor has to opt into for this to happen.
WeGive then periodically checks back with Double the Donation for status
updates on registered donations, so your dashboard and CRM stay current
as a match moves through its stages: employer identified, matching-gift
form submitted, and match verified.

Recurring donations are registered the same way as one-time gifts, and
are flagged as recurring so Double the Donation's reporting can
distinguish them.

## What donors see if there's no match available

If a donor's employer isn't found in Double the Donation's database, or
the organization hasn't connected Double the Donation, the donor simply
doesn't see a matching opportunity — there's no error state, the
donation itself is unaffected either way.

## Setting this up

See [Available Integrations](/external/support/integrations/available-integrations)
for where Double the Donation fits among WeGive's other integrations,
and [Setting up an Integration](/external/support/integrations/setting-up-an-integration)
for the general connection steps. Double the Donation requires a public/
private API key pair from your 360MatchPRO account; WeGive verifies the
keys with Double the Donation before the integration can be enabled.
