Shipping and other informationIf something needs to be shipped back to the user upon payment, you can require shipping information at checkout. You can also set an additional comment box so that a donor can leave additional feedback or instructions with their contribution. |

Integration with PayPalYou don't have to worry about a merchant account or payment gateways. We handle everything through integration with PayPal, one of the web's most trusted and easy to use payment processors. The PayPal checkout system allows the donor to pay with credit cards or even with their checking account. A small fee will be deducted from the contribution to pay for PayPal's services. |

Water Features Q & A
Other website builders seem to have a huge list of features. Why?
Most feature listings are fluff. Water can do most if not more than most systems on the market. However, we intentionally designed Water to do less. Why? Because our goal is not to do the most - our goal is to be the best. Instead of spending our time putting features into Water that only a select few would use, we spend our time refining the features that most businesses and organizations actually need.
What are the system requirements to use Water’s top tier website builder tools?
Because Water is an online application, there’s nothing to install. All you need is an internet connection and a modern web browser. We officially support IE 6 or later on the PC, and Firefox on Mac, PC, or Linux. We do not support older versions than the ones listed above. If you have IE 5.x, we recommend upgrading to IE6 or Firefox – both are compatible and free.
Can I run Water’s content management system on my own servers?
No. Water is only available as a web-based, hosted application.
