User Stories
This article provides auto-submission user stories from the perspective of a donor/company employee and a corporate CSR professional.
User Story: Donor/Company Employee
As an employee eligible for corporate gift matching,
I want to submit my match request directly on the donation confirmation screen,
So that I can increase my donation’s impact without navigating redirects or completing manual forms with donation requrements.
- Preconditions:
- The donor works for an employer that uses a CSR vendor integrated with Double the Donation.
- The donation occurs on a nonprofit donation form integrated with Double the Donation.
- Acceptance Criteria:
- Given a donor has completed a gift on a Double the Donation-enabled donation page,
- When they confirm their eligible employer on the confirmation screen,
- Then they can opt-in for a matching gift request submitted via API,
- And an on-screen confirmation displays without redirecting the user away from the site.
User Story: Corporate CSR Employee
As a corporate director of philanthropy,
I want our matching gift program to support frictionless auto-submission and track resulting activity,
So that employee participation rates increase and justify our ongoing program budget and resources.
- Preconditions:
- The company maintains an active corporate giving / matching gift program.
- Auto-submission integration is enabled between the company's CSR platform and Double the Donation.
- Acceptance Criteria:
- Given the company has enabled matching gift auto-submission,
- When eligible employees make donations on participating nonprofit websites,
- Then matches are routed directly into the company’s match-approval queue,
- And reporting reflects completed auto-submissions to measure program adoption and ROI over time.
