Givebutter

Open your next fundraiser like a product launch: clear setup, fast publishing, and data you can act on. Start by creating a donation page in minutes. Pick a layout (standalone page, embed, or button), drop in your logo and colors, and write a tight headline with a short story. Add suggested amounts with impact blurbs, enable one-time and monthly giving (default to monthly if it fits), and let donors cover fees with a single toggle. Turn on multiple payment methods—card, ACH, PayPal, Venmo, Apple Pay, and Google Pay—so checkout is never a blocker. Collect what you need with custom fields (honor/memorial, company, consent). Show a goal bar, generate a short link and QR code, preview in test mode, run a small test gift, then publish and embed on your site or link-in-bio.

When you’re ready to multiply reach, switch on peer-to-peer. Create teams and individual pages that inherit your branding, set goals for each, and invite captains with an import or quick email send. Provide a share kit (personalized links, sample posts, images) so supporters can start sharing in seconds. Motivate momentum with leaderboards, milestones, and badges. Schedule sprint challenges (e.g., “Most donors by Friday noon”) and add match windows to spur action. Use auto nudges to remind inactive fundraisers, and coach your top performers with prebuilt message templates. Track every source with UTM tags, see which teams convert best, and tune suggested amounts or headlines to improve results. more
