We have been working hard on our next extension: Charitable Easy Digital Downloads Connect. We’re not quite done yet, but I thought I would share a little of what the plugin looks like and how you might use it.

EDD Connect is a bit different to all our other extensions, because it is designed to be used not just by **non-profits,** but also **e-commerce store owners.**

#### How Non-Profits can use EDD Connect

For non-profits, the benefit of using EDD Connect is that it allows you to **use any EDD payment gateway extension**. With EDD Connect activated, all donations are made through the Easy Digital Downloads checkout. So South African charities can use [EDD’s PayFast gateway](http://bit.ly/1Kwh2sU), Dutch non-profits can use [iDEAL](http://bit.ly/1MbFhOs), Indian charities can use [PayU India](http://bit.ly/edd-payu-india-gateway) and organisations in South America can use [Mercado Pago](http://bit.ly/1MbFoJF).

With [more than 70 gateways](http://bit.ly/franklin-edd-gateways) to choose from on the Easy Digital Downloads website, we think this is a major win for any non-profit.

#### How e-commerce stores can use EDD Connect

If you run an e-commerce store that’s powered by Easy Digital Downloads, this extension will allow you to raise money for a cause you care about. It allows you to create contribution rules, where part of the revenue you earn from product sales go towards a fundraising campaign — whether it’s for a charity you support or a friend in need.

It’s a simple but powerful way to contribute towards more than your bottom line.
