Going for gold: The playbook for international fundraising

Key Insights

• International fundraising isn’t just for organizations operating globally.: If you have donors who speak another language, live in another country, or prefer different payment methods, this session is for you.
• What a gold-standard giving experience looks like: Explore the five pillars every globally ready organization has in place, including local payment methods, multilingual donor journeys, regional compliance, donor retention at scale, and the ability to launch across markets without added complexity.
• Friction, not geography, is what limits generosity: Donors don’t stop giving because they live in another country. They stop when the experience isn’t built for them — whether that’s the wrong currency, a missing payment method, or an English-only form.
• Global fundraising is more accessible than most organizations think: Whether you’re enabling a second language for domestic donors or expanding into new markets, the infrastructure exists to meet donors where they are.
• You don't have to do everything at once: The organizations succeeding globally all started somewhere. Quick wins like enabling digital wallets or adding local payment methods can unlock meaningful revenue before a larger investment is required.
