This page shows an overview of all donations (including manual and matchfunding) that fall under the level you are currently working on. You can look up specific donations here, see more information about a particular donation and move donations around. You can also make a download of all donations. Article content:OptionsDonations searchPeriodColumnsDownloadInformationManagement optionsManageMoveAnonymiseRemoveOptionsDonations searchIn the search bar (top right), you can search by a name, e-mail address or transaction id. The transaction id is the number that usually starts with T2023 and is a unique number. Through that number, you can quickly trace a donation.PeriodYou can choose to show only donations from a certain period. If you have many donations, or are only interested in recent or older donations, this may come in handy. You select a period by clicking on 'Period'.Then select the desired period:To make navigating the dashboard easier, we save the period selection in the browser, so the next view you view will also have this period pre-selected. ColumnsThere are several columns belonging to the donations:The columns Date, Amount, Payment status and Payment method are clickable. You can filter with these. If you click it again, it will filter in reverse.At the 'Donation on' column, you can hover over it with the mouse. You will then see the level at which the donation was made appear.In the column 'Amount' you will see icons when web shop items, discount codes or rewards are involved. You can recognise donations with a web shop item by the shopping cart. For donations where a discount code was used, you will see a ticket icon and for donations where a reward was chosen, you will see a gift behind the donation. DownloadYou can use the 'Download' button to create a Download of all donations under where you are at the moment. After clicking the button, an Excel file is generated and its link is sent to the e-mail address you are logged in with. If you click on the link (and are logged in) then you can open the Excel file. If you have made a selection you will only see the donations made in that period. The second tab of the Excel file shows the answers to the additional questions. InformationClicking on the i's will show you all the information about the donation:If there is a donation with a reward you will also see this. Here, you can click on the box to indicate that the reward has been processed:Management optionsIf you click on the three dots you will see the options you have with a donation. These are Manage, Move, Anonymise and DeleteManageBy managing a donation, you can change a donor's name, or change a message accompanying the donation (for example, if a donor wants to correct a spelling mistake). You can also hide or make visible the name attached to a donation.MoveIt can happen that a donation has ended up in the wrong place, for example on a team instead of a team member. You can then move it by clicking on the three dots and move and find the place where the donation should go. If there is a registration fee attached to the donation, you cannot move it. You cannot move manual donations either. If you want to move them, you can delete them in one place and add them in another. Finally, you cannot move donations made via matchfunding. You can only do that after the matchfunding donation (which is listed as a manual donation) has been removed.AnonymiseThis option allows you to completely anonymise a donation. The account number information will be removed and you will see 'Anonymous Anonymous (Name Shielded)' as a donor.RemoveYou can only delete donations made with a test checkout. You can delete them via this option. Real donations are always saved.

You can register as an individual, but you can also start a team or join an existing team. As a team, you have your own team page, where you can see more information about the team and who the team members are. Here, as team captain, you can add news items and edit the team page. Watch the video on managing teams here, or read more about specific sections below.00:00 - Welcome00:27 - Overview and download team01:23 - Adjust a team02:46 - Creating teams manually03:49 - Creating team members04:22 - Appoint a team captain 05:33 - Move teams06:01 - Other options Article contentTeam captainContentSettingsDonationsTeam membersManagement teamTeam captain changeAdding team members to a teamDelete team membersAdd a team via the dashboardStarting a team as an fundraiser after registrationCap on number of team members Team captainThe team captain is the one who created the team and thus the one who is in charge of the team. The team captain can do the following:ContentChange team name, profile picture, title and team description (Content > Motivation)Add image or video to team page (Content > Pictures and videos)Add sponsor logos (Content > Sponsor logos)Add news items (Content > Blog)SettingsAllow team members (Settings > Allow team members)Here the team captain can choose to allow unlimited members, allow a certain number of team members (note: if an activity must be chosen then this option is not there), or no longer allow team membersClose team (Settings > Close page)Set target amount team (Settings > Target amount)DonationsThe team captain can view all donations made on team members by clicking on the 'i' behind the donation.Team membersA team captain can remove activists from his or her team. This can be done on the team members overview page, by clicking on the three dots behind one of the team members and choosing 'Remove from team'. A team captain can also see more information about team members' fundraisers by clicking on the 'i' under the three dots. Management teamAs a site administrator, you can immediately see per fundraiser whether it is a member of a team or not. You can see this through the following icons:FundraiserTeam memberTeam starterChange team captainYou can change the owner of a team. You do this by going to teams and looking up the team. Then click on the three dots behind the team and choose 'assign user'. Then select the new owner of the team (if necessary, you can create a new user first).Adding team members to a teamIf someone has signed up and then finds out that he or she would have preferred to be in a team, that person can create a team themselves by logging in to the fundraiser page. And then clicking on create team.Adding an existing participant/fundraiser holder to an already existing team is basically no more than moving this fundraiser to the team. First, you look up the fundraiser by going to 'Fundraisers'. Then click on the three dots and select move. You look up the team and click move. Then the fundraising page will appear under the team and that person has joined the team. Deleting team membersA team member is nothing more than an fundraising page linked to the team. If you delete a team member, the page is no longer linked to the team, but the deleted person's fundraising page remains in contact. You can delete a team member as follows: Find the team and press Manage. Then click on Team members. Then click on the three dots behind the team member you want to delete and selectDelete from team.Adding a team via the dashboardYou can also create a team via the backend. To do this, first go to where you want to create the team. For example, at site level (if your registrations are at website level), under a sub site or under a project. In case you want to add the team under a project, first find the project and manage it. Then go to teams and click on add team. A team always has a team captain, so you can link it to an existing account, or add a new account. After linking the team to an account, all you have to do is fill in the team name, team title and team description. Starting a team as an fundraiser after registrationAfter registering an fundraiser, you can also optionally start a team as an fundraiser. This can be done via the start team button:You can then create a team via the dashboard:After completing all the information (including, for example, additional questions to the team captain), the team is created. The fundraiser this team is created with then becomes team captain. No e-mails are sent after team creation.You will see the button to create the team only if:You don't have a team yetIt is possible to start a team (So via Settings > Sign-up flow > Sign-up options)It is possible to start an fundraiser. So the fundraiser start must not be blocked and there must still be free spacesOnly site administrators and the fundraiser himself can do this. The button is not visible to subsite and campaign administrators. Cap on number of team members If you have an event with a maximum number of team members, you can set this via Settings > Default team settings. All teams that are then created are allowed to have a maximum of that set number of members.You can set a maximum via Settings > Default team settings via Team members limit:If you choose "Yes, I want to specify a limit for teams under this page." there, you can set the maximum number of team members. The fundraiser who is a team captain himself also counts as an fundraiser.After activation, any limits set by the team captain are overwritten. However, if you reset them at a later time, then that previously set limit will also be reset.Existing teams that already have more members than your set maximum will remain intact. Suppose you have a team of six people, and you set a maximum across the whole project of four people per team, that team will still keep those six people. Therefore, make sure you have already set it up properly beforehand. A site administrator, sub site administrator and campaign administrator can do this.The 'allow team members' option disappears the moment you set a maximum number of team members over a certain level. So a team captain can no longer set the maximum himselfYou can set the cap at site level, sub site level and campaign level and there is no erving in it (so it is only for that level). 

Settings > Extra descriptionIn 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. For more information about the api, please visit our Developer Portal

Participants may need to be able to upload a medical certificate for a particular event to show that they can participate. Or perhaps have to specifically sign and send another document.Upload documentsThis can be conveniently done via Documents. Via Settings > Upload documents you can indicate whether documents should be uploaded after registration. You can indicate here in the Description what should be uploaded:Mails about documentsFundraisers are then asked to upload their documents. For new registrations, the mail to fundraisers "Request documents to upload after registering participant" is sent. By default, the two mails below are also still on:You can turn it off if necessary or adjust the number of days via the copy icon.Upload documentsIn the mails there is a link to go to 'my registration'. This requires the fundraiser to log in and click on 'My registration'. A notification is displayed at the top that documents still need to beüpload:Below, the fundraiser can upload his documents:The text from the Description will appear above 'Upload file'.After uploading the file, it will look like this: Controlling documentsIf mail to site administrator 'Document(s) uploaded' is on, the site administrator will receive a message after an fundraiser has uploaded documents. In that mail is a link to go directly to the correct page.You can also go to the Overview of Fundraisers to see if that the fundraisers have already uploaded their documents:You have these icons:No document(s) uploadedNo document(s) uploaded, not checkedDocument(s) approvedIf you then manage the fundraising page and go to 'My Registration' you can check the documents. You can choose to reject them by clicking delete, or approve them by ticking the box at the bottom:If the documents are deleted, the notification will reappear for the fundraiser and he should upload them again.If you create an export of all Fundraisers you will see two columns applicable to the documents. These are the columns:Number of documentsDocuments approved

Please note: This functionality does not yet work on sites with the Fuji or Everest theme (or where the Flex Editor is active)An A/B test is a form of split testing in which you can test multiple variants against each other to see which variant has the best conversion rate. The aim is to use the test to measure which suggested donation amounts yield the most and therefore increase conversion.Content articleBaselineSuggested donation amountsInformation about baselineA/B testSetup A/B testResults A/B testSee here also the explanation as given at the iRaiser Academy on 20 January 2022 BaselineSuggested donation amountsYou can A/B test on the donation flow within the Kentaplatform. Via Settings > Set donation amounts you can set different suggested donation amounts. The currently set amount is your baseline. The baseline is the basis from which you measure and compare split tests. When someone makes a donation you will see the suggested donation amounts: This can also include text to give more interpretation of what you are doing with the amount. For example: When adjusting donation amounts, at the bottom you have to indicate whether you want to keep the current baseline or create a new one. If you create a new baseline it will start measuring from that point on. You can see all its results via Settings > A/B testing. If you keep the current baseline, the adjustments are taken into account, but the baseline in terms of measurement remains intact. This is useful if, for example, you have made a typo and want to adjust it.  Information about baselineIf you go to Settings >A/B testing you will always see the huige baseline at the top: You can see here:Active sinceThe moment when the chosen amounts were setChosen amountsThe chosen donation amounts.

All currently set data will then be filled in automatically:In the A/B test, variants can be specified for:the amountsthe order of the amountsthe mouse-over textYou can do two types of A/B test:Test against current baselineWhere you change only Group A or Group B, testing against the current baselineTest two separate groupsWhere you change both Group A and B, testing two new groups against each other.From then on, donors randomly see the suggested amounts belonging to Group A or B. Suppose you have set these amounts:And you click save then the test starts:From then on, visitors who go to the donation form will either see the donation amounts as set at A, or from B. You'll see these randomly. You can't change the suggested donation amounts while an A/B test is running.Results testYou can abort a test yourself by going to the cog above the test and choosing 'Abort'. And otherwise it is automatically stopped when 100 Donations have been made to both groups. Because you can get a group randomly, it may be that, for example, 130 Donations have been made to one group and 100 to the other.If the test is stopped then the results will appear in the history, as for example in the case of this test that was manually aborted:Interpreting the results is also important. It may seem that one group has better results, but if there is a very high Donations in one group it distorts the picture. We recommend looking at these critically and you can choose to set one of the groups that has a better conversion rate as a new baseline via Settings > Suggested donation amounts.

One of the most important pages within the platform is the donation page. In the donation form, the donor can decide how much to donate, or choose one of the suggested donation amounts. By default, these amounts are set at €15, €25, €50 and €100.Suggested donation amounts adjustableIn the Dashboard, these amounts are customisable via Settings/ Set donation amounts, allowing you to experiment with the right amounts based on average donation amounts or linked to impact.Show text at donation amountAn explanation or encouragement can be added to each suggested donation amount. This explanation appears when the donor hovers over the amount. You can use this explanation to make the proposed donation amount concrete or as an encouragement, for example:Donation form in registration flow (self-donation)Not only on the donation form are donation amounts customisable. The sign-up flow also includes a donation form. Of course, these amounts are also adjustable, and it is possible to display a text with each amount.

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.Content of articleSet EditionsDefault target amount depending on number of participationsWelcome email - Welcome back!Badges - Make it visible to everyone Set EditionsVia 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 participationsDepending 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 everyoneIn 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. 

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.Content articleGeneralUseType Match fundingStart donationMultiply DonationOutputExcelGeneralTwo forms of Match funding are supported within the iRaiser framework:1. Starter donation2. Multiply DonationsWith 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 sponsoringColour 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 funding1. Start donationWith 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 here2. Multiply DonationsThis 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: OutputA 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.ExcelThe 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?
