OTHER MODES OF DONATION
Q:  I don't have a credit card, is there another way I can donate?
A:  Yes, there are various ways to donate.
You can also donate using a credit card by filling out an authorization form, signing it and sending it to the Salesian Missions office.

BILLING
Q:  When do I get charged for my donation?
A: We charge your card only AFTER sending your donation is confirmed and after the Salesian Missions has sent you an email confirming receipt of your intent to donate.

Q:  Why is it that after placing my order the amount already showed up in my online bank statement?
A: Your credit card bank only allocates the order amount in preparation for our charging you. This is to make sure that when the donation is charge to your account, you will not go over your credit limit.

Q:  What will appear on my credit card?
A:  KABAYANCENTRAL.COM will appear as the merchant name in your credit card statement. Your credit card statement will show the NET total charge for the donation.

Q:  I just made an online donation but I haven't received any confirmation from you. Does this mean you didn't get my offer to donate?
A:  Email confirmation of online donations is NOT automated. All donations are reviewed by the Salesian Missions and acknowledged personally by staff members.

If you do NOT receive a confirmation email in three business days, then the Salesian Missions did not get your online donation. Please place a new one. You need not worry about being charged twice since the Salesian Missions will only debit your credit card after review, and after confirming receipt of your donation.

But if you made a donation on a Friday night (Manila time), or on the eve of a Philippine holiday, you might get your confirming email on the next Philippine business day [ The Salesian Missions staff gets the weekends off, too you know.:-) ]
