Ensuring Uninterrupted Fundraising
Fundraise Up offers multiple ways to keep your fundraising efforts running smoothly, even if your main website experiences downtime or undergoes maintenance.
Directing Supporters to Your Fundraise Up Checkout
If your main website is down, you can still direct donors to your Fundraise Up account checkout by setting up an alternative website, webpage, or landing page that hosts your Fundraise Up installation code and a donate button. This ensures that your donors can continue to make new donations while your main website is being updated or restored.
To set up an alternative donation page:
- Create a new webpage or landing page on a separate hosting platform or subdomain.
- Add your Fundraise Up installation code to the page's HTML head section.
- Include a Donate Button or a direct link that guides supporters to your Fundraise Up checkout.
- Share the URL of the alternative donation page with your donors through email, social media, or other communication channels.
By providing an alternative donation page, you can minimize the impact of website downtime on your fundraising efforts and ensure that your donors can continue to support your cause.
Leveraging Campaign Pages for Reliable Fundraising
Fundraise Up's Campaign Pages feature provides a powerful, hosted solution for creating dedicated landing pages for your fundraising campaigns. These pages are hosted by Fundraise Up and remain accessible even if your main website experiences downtime.
To learn more about creating and customizing Campaign Pages, refer to the Campaign Pages documentation.
Uninterrupted Processing of Recurring Donations
Fundraise Up ensures that your active recurring donation plans continue to process according to their scheduled frequency, even if your website is down. Your recurring supporters' contributions will be securely processed and reflected in your Fundraise Up Dashboard, maintaining a steady stream of support for your organization.
