The Fundraisers view includes search and filtering tools. You can use the search for a specific Fundraiser by its name.

There are five typical filters in the Fundraisers view:

  • Supporter: filter by supporter.
  • Campaign: filter by the campaign that the Fundraiser is associated with.
  • Element: filter by the Element that was used to create the Fundraiser.
  • Source: filter by the source through which the Fundraiser was created. The sources are Website and Dashboard. You can use this filter to see which Fundraisers were created organically by supporters (through Website) and directly by your organization’s team members (through the Dashboard).
  • Status: filter by the status of a Fundraiser. They can either be classed as Active or Paused.

If subaccounts are enabled for your account, an additional Account filter is displayed. This filter is used to display Fundraisers created by all or some of your organization’s accounts.

Creating a fundraiser

In most cases, a supporter creates a Fundraiser using the Fundraisers Button or Fundraisers Link components from the Elements library. These components are typically integrated into your organization’s website.

However, it is also possible to create a Fundraiser from within the Fundraise Up Dashboard. This approach is useful when a supporter needs help creating a fundraiser, or if you are creating fundraisers on behalf of board members, corporate sponsors, or other groups.

To create a Fundraiser, navigate to the Fundraisers view in the Dashboard and select New Fundraiser.

Currently, it's not possible to create a Fundraiser for campaigns that have crypto enabled as payment method.
