Everyone has seen the donation buttons on websites. How much satisfaction do you get out of giving someone a $2 donation though? What if you could buy them your favorite beer? This plugin allows you to put a custom “Buy Me a Beer” button on your blog. When a visitor clicks on the button, they will be taken to buyhimabeer.com to choose a beer for you. Once they have chosen a beer, the visitor will click on a buy button which directs them to Paypal to pay you for the beer. Using the buyhimabeer service is completely free and doesn’t require any type of account. Buyhimabeer.com doesn’t collect any information about its users.

YouBeHero

Add Donation to Cart by YouBeHero is a powerful WordPress plugin that adds a donation widget to your WooCommerce checkout, transforming every purchase into an opportunity for social impact. By allowing customers to support nonprofit organizations during checkout, you create a more meaningful shopping experience that builds loyalty, differentiates your brand and boosts key business metrics.
Why add donations to checkout? 
– Increase customer loyalty – Customers feel good about supporting causes they care about 
– Differentiate your brand – Stand out as a socially responsible business 
– Boost conversions – The “warm glow effect” increases checkout completion rates 
– Build trust – Transparent impact reporting creates customer confidence
The plugin seamlessly integrates with your existing checkout flow without disrupting the customer experience. The donation widget is discreet and optional – customers can easily skip it if they prefer, ensuring your checkout process remains smooth and conversion-friendly. No changes to your payment processing are required. With dynamic widgets, shortcodes, and API-powered configurations, YouBeHero ensures a customizable and smooth donation process. Store owners can manage supported organizations, track donations and display impact statistics directly in their WordPress dashboard.
Although currently only available for Greek e-commerce stores, Add Donation to Cart supports English locales.

Callback URL handling: 
The YouBeHero service may redirect administrators to a callback URL inside the WordPress admin (e.g., <code>wp-admin/admin.php?page=ybhd-settings&api_token=xxxxx</code>).
