What’s new in Fundraise Up.

Join existing P2Ps through elements

You can now configure whether donors who interact with the P2P Link and P2P Button Elements can create a new fundraiser, join an existing one, or have both options. This allows you to run campaigns that have a set number of fundraisers for donors to select from, if desired. Access these options in the settings for your P2P Button and P2P Link Elements.

Tributes access in Donor Portal

Donors who make tribute donations no longer require email authentication to enter the Donor Portal to add details of their dedication — they’ll be taken straight to the correct tribute editor through a unique URL. If you use a custom “Thank You” page, the new “donateId” parameter will allow you to set up the same process from that page. This change makes the tribute giving process easier and smoother for tribute donors, while also reducing the chances of unauthorized Donor Portal access.

Thank you email with PDF receipt

Donor emails now include links to download receipts for increased convenience.

Annual summary receipt

Organizations can now generate annual summary receipts that cover all donations made as part of a recurring donation plan in the course of the tax year. These consolidated receipts make it easier for your donors to claim tax relief on their donations at the end of the year. Head to the “Receipts” section of your Dashboard settings to start generating annual summary receipts.

Cookie banner for Campaign Pages

To make our Campaign Pages more compliant with European and UK laws related to the processing of personal data, we’ve added a cookie banner all Campaign Pages. It will appear on Pages for all organizations and visitors based in the EU, EEA, UK or Switzerland. The cookie banner lets visitors configure their cookie preferences, in line with GDPR regulations. The cookie banner is automatically shown wherever it’s needed, so there’s nothing you or your organization needs to do to enable it.

Google Analytics 4 events

We’ve unified our Google Analytics event terminology: "one-time donation" and "monthly donation" are now labeled as "once" and "monthly" for both the Checkout modal and our Campaign pages events.

Disputed donations in Salesforce and Salesforce NPSP

You can now choose which Opportunity Stage any donations marked as “Disputed” should take on when they appear in your integrated Salesforce or NPSP account. Head to your integration settings in the Fundraise Up Dashboard and scroll down to “Opportunity stages” to choose a stage.

Checkout design update

We’ve made some small design changes to Fundraise Up’s Checkout form to optimize it even further. The donation forms in the Checkout modal and the Campaign Page are now much more similar, making for a unified and seamless experience for donors across your campaign.

Bloomerang stock donation syncing

Our integration with Bloomerang now syncs stock donations, too! We’ve added some new values for the “Default comment” that relate to stock donations.

Mailing address/phone in Donor Portal

You can now give donors the option to update their mailing address and/or phone number in the Donor Portal, and the data will update instantly in your integrated CRM systems. This means more up-to-date donor contact details and increased GDPR compliance for your organization. Find this option in the “Donor Portal” section of your account settings.

ACH US Direct Debit

We’ve streamlined our payment methods by combining Instant Direct Debit and ACH Direct Debit together into one new, improved ACH US Direct Debit. These changes will make ACH payments more convenient and reliable, and also allow for more options for account verification methods for your donors. The transition took place automatically and won’t be noticeable to donors so there’s no direct action you or your organization need to take.

Amount and currency in Virtuous

If your organization uses our integration with Virtuous, you can choose which donation amounts to send over to recurring gift objects in Virtuous, and which currency to send them in. Configure these options in the “Mapping rules” tab for your integration — you’ll see them when you choose “Donation” as your object.

PayPal Donation ID

We’ve updated our integration with PayPal, and the donation ID is now automatically sent from Fundraise Up after each donation made through PayPal. It will appear in the invoice_id field in PayPal.

Cookies update

We take compliance seriously, and we've re-organized our cookies to make it even easier for your organization to comply fully with GDPR regulations with your site’s cookie banner.

Changing Campaign and Designation

Altering which Campaign and/or Designation a recurring plan is attached to helps you seamlessly migrate plans over from the Campaigns or Designations you want to disable, right from the Dashboard. And, from now on, you also have the choice whether to apply these changes only to future installments, or to all past and future installments. You’ll see this option when you next go to edit a recurring plan from the Dashboard.

Virtuous G&C Import Write

We’ve released a new integration with Virtuous that sends data via the platform’s Import Tool. This new integration supports “Track payments” in Virtuous to show a schedule of expected future donations, reduces data duplication and eliminates systematic errors in matching. To enable this integration, head to the Integrations section of your Dashboard settings.

Salesforce NPSP integration update

We’ve made an improvement to our integration with Salesforce’s Nonprofit Success Pack (NPSP). Previously, there had to a matching value in in a field in order for a value to be sent to Salesforce NPSP correctly. Now, if a matching value can’t be found, a new value will be created. This will make for much a smoother process of data transfer to your Salesforce instance.

Questions available in shared tribute type for Exports

When you use the “Shared Tributes” export type to extract information about donors who made a dedicated donation, the data will now also include any questions the donor was asked in the Checkout form by default.

2FA through an app

You can now log in to your Fundraise Up account with two-factor authentication using authenticator apps, as well as with SMS codes. Authenticator apps let you access your account securely, regardless of phone signal or SIM card. Go to the Profile section of your Dashboard settings to configure 2FA through your app of choice.

Automatic domain verification for subaccounts

From now on, if your organization’s parent account successfully verifies an email domain for sending emails to donors, that domain will then be automatically verified for all your organization’s subaccounts, too.
