Generating the Mobile Checkout link directly from Shelterluv allows us to efficiently complete the process all at once. Not to mention, we're earning thousands in donations that we otherwise would have missed out on!," says Olivia Nolt. ![Recurring donations icon](https://blog.shelterluv.com/hubfs/Recurring_Donations.svg) ### Saving time with integrations "With Shelterluv's integrations, we've eliminated the need for several roles, including someone whose job it was to post cats to Petfinder and Adopt-A-Pet and another who did microchip registrations. Before, we often just had half our animals on the website at a time, and now it's consistently up to date." ![Person icon](https://blog.shelterluv.com/hubfs/Person.svg) ### World-class support "I've been really impressed with Shelterluv's support. I've always gotten really helpful responses right away. A couple features I requested ended up getting built later. The Shelterluv team really takes feedback into account." ![Money icon](https://blog.shelterluv.com/hubfs/Money.svg) ### Processing adoptions with Shelterpay Mobile Checkout "Our fosters and adopters are both in touch with their assigned adoption counselor ahead of a meet and greet, often in a group chat or an email thread together. If the adopter decides to move forward, they'll text the adoption counselor, who then sends over a Mobile Checkout link. The adopter can take their new pet home after completing the checkout!"

Every adoption got done twice: once on paper in person, then again when someone typed it into the system. Sending a Mobile Checkout link from Shelterluv gets it done in one pass. ### What did the integrations replace? Manually posting cats to Petfinder and Adopt-a-Pet, and manually registering microchips. Before, often only half their animals were on the website at once. Now it's consistently up to date. ### How does an adoption happen after a meet and greet? The adopter texts their adoption counselor, who sends a Mobile Checkout link. Once checkout's done, the pet goes home.
