Step 8: Account settings

The Settings view of the Fundraise Up Dashboard provides access to the platform’s main configuration options. Before launching Fundraise Up on your website, we recommend reviewing the settings that impact account management and the supporter experience.

You can access your main settings at any time from the Fundraise Up Dashboard by clicking your user name in the top-right corner and then Settings. Once you’ve found the main settings, select Account from the menu on the left-hand side.

The value included for this property defines the base URL used to launch Checkout. Ensure that the URL is for a website where the Fundraise Up installation script has been added.
