10. How iGive Works: The iGive Button
The optional iGive button makes donating easy and automatic.
It’s a little browser app that alerts participating retailers that an
iGive member is shopping on their site, and that a percentage of
that shopper’s purchase should go to a cause of her choice.
Once installed,
a member can
track her impact
on her cause.
And iGive
members can
access exclusive
offers and coupons
from participating
retailers…for free

12. The Math
1) Betty shops at HSN. She knows she will earn a 2%
donation because she saw it in her iGive newsletter, our
website, or if she clicked the Button in the corner.
2) The Button tells HSN – this person is special – nothing
more.
3) Betty makes a $300 purchase. That’s $6.
4) HSN sends iGive money.
5) iGive sends you money monthly (one check for all
shoppers’ activity combined).
6) Rinse and repeat.
13. How iGive Works: The iGive iPad & Android Apps
The iPad & Android Apps make donating easy and automatic.
Once downloaded from the App Store for free, just login, and shop through the app.
Every purchase earns money for your cause.
