GDPR changes

You can limit the number of fundraisers that can be created via Settings > Maximum fundraising pages. You can set this per level (website level, sub site level, campaign level).

 
If you then want to create an fundraisers and move over the button, you will see how many spots are still available.

The moment there are no more spots, you cannot click the button and it will be greyed out:

Note: This setting does not go together with activities. This is because you can also set a limit on activities. In case you want to set activities and there is already a maximum number of fundraising pages set, you get the message "The limit on the maximum number of fundraising pages is cleared.". After that, you won't see the menu item max number of fundraising pages until the activities are turned off at that level. If you work with activities and you want to set a maximum number of fundraising pages across all your activities (otherwise you could set it per activity), it's best to keep track of this manually and block fundraisers triggering at some point.

Settings ⟶ Coupons
Sometimes you have that special sponsor, ten employees of a particular organisation or someone who also committed last year, who deserves a discount on their registration. Coupons have been created for this purpose. With this feature, it is possible to create one or more discount code(s) that allow one to pay less registration fee.

Fill in a descriptionOn the left at 'Discount' you can set the type of code and the discount 
Select One-time code or Reusable code

A One-time code is a code that is used only ééonce. Choose this one if you want to use several codes s. For example, when handing out codes in person at an event.
A Reusable code is a generic code, which can be used several times. This code is generated and can then be used a set number of times (or infinitely).

Select the type of discount

With Percentage (%) a certain discount percentage is given on the Registration fee.
At Fixed amount (€), a fixed discount is given on the registration fee. However, this can never be lower than 0.On the right-hand side you can now set how you wish the code to be generated

Choose Generate automatically or Define the text  yourself

In the case of Generate automatically the text of the coupon code is randomly determined
In the case ofDetermine text you can specify your own text of the discount code (at the bottom). This can be useful, for example, if you use the discount code for promotional purposes. You can only use the capital letters A-Z, 0-9 and dashes, and no spaces, when entering your own Coupons.

Fill in the number of codes (max 500 per batch in the case of a One-off code)
You can then choose to attach an End date and Time to the code. If you don't want to specify an end date, you can leave this field blank.
Click Save
Then you return to the Overview and you can view discount code(s) under the blue eye ()

Coupons in use

As soon as an action starter has used a Once usable discount code it is crossed out (under the blue eye). The exact time when the coupon code was used and by which action starter is indicated. You can also use the button View to see which campaign starter it concerns. The code cannot be used after this.
In case a Reusable code is used, the eyelet shows when and by whom this code was used. AnExcel file of this is also available for download.
In the Donations Overview (under menu item Donations), it is indicated whether a coupon code has been used by the following icon: 
In the Donations export, the column Discount shows how much discount the action starter received on the Registration fee. The column Coupon shows the code used.
On the My Entry page that each action starter has, it also states whether a Coupons was used and what effect it had on the entry. 

Settings > Extra description

In the Extra description, you can enter an extra attribute. You can add this attribute at all levels. So at website- Sub site, campaign level. This can be useful to earmark money or give a label to certain Fundraisers, for example.

The donor or fundraiser does not see anything about this attribute, but it is added to the overviews you can create by clicking 'download'. For example, in an Overview of Donations or Fundraisers. You will then find it in the Excel file in the column headed 'Characteristic'.
Via the api, it also returns. The additional attribute there is called:

external_reference
    string
     External reference for this site.

They will then receive news of this.Performance goal of the fundraiser has been achievedThis mail is linked to the performance tracker. If this goal is achieved in its entirety, this mail goes off.

Any transaction that is done has a description. If there is no PSP description filled in then it will say Donations <sitename> or Registration fee <sitename>, depending on whether it is a regular donation or one to which registration fee is linked.
You can add extra text to the PSP description. This will then appear with the description and either for Donations <sitename> or for Registration fee <sitename>. 
Example:
Here is the PSP description "PSP description with attribute" entered

In the Buckaroo dashboard (this works the same with other payment providers), this looks like this:

A donor will also see this on their bank statement or banking app. Depending on the number of characters filled in, the PSP description will be shown and therefore visible to a donor.
You can set the PSP description per level, and in Buckaroo's (or another payment provider's) dashboard you can then search for all donations with that attribute. 

Would you like to offer a T-shirt, medal or other goodie to everyone who starts an action on your website? You can do so with the webshop function within the platform. This feature makes it possible to offer products and even services to anyone who creates an action on the website.
 

The webshop is not on by default on the website, it can be turned on by a support person on the website. To do this, contact iRaiser. After this, the products must be added to the catalogue. Once the products are put in the catalogue, the action starter can see this right away and order directly in the action start flow!
But what if these products only apply to a specific Sub site or Campaigns? No problem! In fact, it is possible to set up a catalogue at segment or project level. This catalogue will then only be visible to the campaigners at this level. Conversely, it is also possible to set up a catalogue on the main level, after which you disable it on a lower Sub site or Campaigns.

Match funding is a tool that can be used in both crowdfunding and peer-to-peer fundraising. It allows Companies and Funds to support Fundraisers and campaigns on the iRaiser platform.

General
Two forms of Match funding are supported within the iRaiser framework:
1. Starter donation2. Multiply Donations
With the first variant, each new action, Campaign or Fundraiser receives an initial donation of a fixed amount from the company or fund. This could be interesting at a fundraising event (each participant is sponsored with xx euros by company X) or on a crowdfunding platform (each campaign receives an initial donation of €xx from company X).
For the second variant, each donation is doubled (or far x-fold) by the company or fund doing the match funding. In both variants, the maximum amount available for the match funding can be set.
The donation counter graphically displays the ‘match funding’contribution. Thereby, it can be referred to a page within the platform with more information. Match funding contributions are not subject to variable licence fees charged by iRaiser.

Use 
On request, we can turn on Matchfunding functionality. You can find it then in the dashboard under Menu item 'Settings -> Match funding'. You can enable this at site, Sub site or project level by going to this level, managing it and going to Settings > Match funding and clicking on 'Yes, I want to use Match funding'.Following this, you can fill in the various fields:

By organisation (mandatory field)Here you fill in the name of the organisation doing the match funding sponsoring
Colour You can choose a colour here and this colour will be reflected in the donation counter. 
Donations message Fill in a message here. This will be displayed with the donation. Suppose you enter "Match funding - Sustainability Fund" here it will look like this at the front end: 

More info URLTo provide more information about how your crowdfunding and Match funding works, you can create a Menu item (at site or segment level). You can put the url of this behind it. Once an url has been entered, an i will appear next to it where the user can click to read more information. 
 Type Match funding
1. Start donation
With this type of Match funding, the organisation donates the first part of target amount when an action is created, i.e. not when making a donation. After the action is created, a (manual) donation is made directly on this action. You set its amount under Amount. You can optionally set a Maximum amount. Once that amount is reached, no more match funding will be done.
An example of this type of match funding can be seen here
2. Multiply Donations
This type of Match funding focuses on Donations, and here the organisation multiplies every donation. After a donation is made, it is multiplied immediately. At Number, you can set how often you want to double the donation. Suppose 100 euros is donatedIf you set once, the organisation will add 100 euros.If you set twice, the organisation will add 200 euros.If you set 3x, the organisation will add 300 euros.If you set 4x, the organisation will add 400 euros.
You can also set limits. A limit indicates what the maximum doubling can be. If you have set 4x as the number and a limit of 400 euros, and someone donates 200 euros then the amount the organisation contributes is 400 euros.
Also here you can set a maximum amount. If that is reached then the pot is 'used up' and no more Match funding is done.
An example of this type of match funding can be seen here
.
If you have this type of match funding active and you make a manual donation, you have to choose whether to matchfund the manual donation or not:

 
Output
A donation made through Match funding is a manual automatic donation. It looks as follows:

Match funding is linked to the original donation. If you delete it then the matchfunding donation will also be deleted. If you move the original donation then the match funding moves with it too.
Excel
The Excel file adds a new type of Payment Method: Match funding. Here see an example of an Excel file with match funding in which the columns not used by matchfunding have been omitted for convenience.
 
Interested in this functionality on your platform? Then contact us.

The retention functionality involves asking the action starter/participant how many times he or she has participated before. Based on this, you can set a different target amount, send other emails based on the number of participations and add a badge on the campaign page. This is particularly useful for events organised annually, for example.

Default target amount depending on number of participations

Badges - Make it visible to everyone

 
Set Editions
Via Settings > Editions you can set the edition for each level (website, Sub site, Campaigns). You first set the edition:

Here is no erving. If you set the 7th Edition at the website level, this will not be transferred to an underlying Campaign. So there you still have to set it manually.
After setting this, an additional mandatory question will appear in the Sign up flow:

Then, based on the given number of previous participations, other functions can be triggered:
Default target amount depending on number of participations
Depending on the number chosen, the proposed target amount may varyëren. Example: If you join for the first time, the minimum target amount is €300. If you are participating in this event for the second time or more, the minimum target amount is €250.
This can be set at the level where people can register, under Settings > Target amounts. There you can choose a target amount depending on the number of entries. This way, you can allow participants who have already raised a very high amount once to raise a lower minimum amount next time. In practice, you then often see that they still raise a nice amount, while the threshold to participate again and ask for an amount is lower.

 
Welcome email - Welcome back!
A different welcome e-mail can be sent based on the number of participants. This allows you to address the participant with a different tone if he has participated before or if he has participated in all Editions. 

Badges - Make it visible to everyone
In the media (image/video) on the Fundraising page, you can display a badge for x participations. So you can overlay an image over the media, for example a crown or medal. This makes it visible to everyone on the site that someone has already participated several times! See also the support article Badges for some examples.

Would you like to use the retention functionality? Just contact us, and we'll be happy to turn it on for you and then you can set the Editions for each level yourself.
