    I'm offering an "other" option both for sum as well as for method of payment

    When I tried to condition an option as equal to "other", it shows "missing field"

    see attached merged screenshots

    Thank you for reporting this to us, we appreciate it.

    I was able to replicate the issue on another form. Although the condition still works as expected, it seems that when the "Other" option is used as a state in a condition's action rule, it will show a "Missing Field" indicator. 

    We would like to apologize for any inconvenience this is causing you. I have forwarded this concern to our developers. Please be assured that once we have an update from them regarding the resolution of the issue, we will notify you in this thread right away.

    As for the condition in your form, if you don't want to see the "Missing Field" indicator in your condition(s) when you use the "Other" option, may I suggest that instead of using the "Other" option in the condition just like you showed us in your screenshot, you can use the other options of the "Single Choice Field" in your condition as shown in the image below which has the same effect.

    I have made a test on a new form and I can confirm that the issue is now fixed.

    I have also checked the conditions in your form and I can see that the "other" option is now shown instead of the "Missing Field" indicator.

    However, with regards to the "other" option value of the "I would like to give monthly" not being passed to the "Monthly Donation - תרומה חודשית" Number field in your form, I have moved it to a new thread considering that it is about another topic.
