e-Ticketing is a premium functionality that we can turn on upon request. For fundraisers and participants, you can generate tickets and have them automatically mailed to you. The tickets have a QR code and you can eventually scan it via your mobile, webcam or manually.

Features

You can set tickets per level, separately
Once tickets are shared, fundraisers can also find them in their dashboard under "my registration".
If you add multiple participants under the same email address, you will get in multiple tickets (Currently in multiple emails, but we will change that to an email with multiple PDFs)
You can choose to generate the tickets already, but not share them yet (and do so at a later date)

 
Setting up e-tickets
You can set up e-tickets by level. You can choose to do this at website level (for registrations that go directly below website level), for a specific sub site (for registrations that go directly at that level) or for registrations under a campaign. You do this by going to Settings > E-tickets. Here you have two options:

 
E-tickets use directly below this page.
If you use these then e-tickets will be generated. You will then only see the e-tickets via E-tickets > Overview. Nothing else happens and fundraisers don't see the tickets yet either. You cannot download pdf files yet, but you can already see the ticket numbers.
Share e-tickets with buyer
Only the moment you click "Share e-tickets with buyer." then fundraisers can see their tickets in the dashboard (example ticket). Existing fundraisers or participants at that level will immediately be sent the mail under Fundraisers > Send e-tickets. New participants, when creating an fundraiser, get their ticket sent directly. That mail looks like this by default, but you can customise it.
This screenshot was taken in the fourth template. To ensure that the logo is always visible, this template chose to always include a white frame for the logo. Otherwise, you might get the situation where the logo is all green and then disappears into the green background.

 
Scanning of tickets
You can scan e-tickets manually or via a camera. On the main level, if you go to E-tickets > Overview (manual) or to E-tickets > Scan. Then you will see all tickets from the entire site (including all underlying sub sites and campaigns), and you can scan them all as well. You can also go specifically to, say, a campaign and there you can only scan tickets that fall under that campaign.
Who can scan?
Site administratorsCan set up e-tickets, go to the overview and scan (and create exports). If, as a site administrator, you start scanning at the highest level, you also scan immediately for all underlying campaigns. You can think of it as a kind of 'super scanner'
Sub site managersCan go to the overview and scan (and create exports)
Campaign managersCan go to the overview and scan (and create exports)
Scanner (see next heading)Scanners can only scan tickets for the entities (website level, sub site, campaign) to which they have been added.
 
Scanner
As a regular scanner, you can also be added at the website level. However, then you can only scan that level, not, for example, underlying sub sites or campaigns (unless you are specifically added to those as well).
 
Add scanner
You can add a scanner per level. This is linked to a user. You can have a user who can only scan. This will then not appear in the dashboard at all, but directly in a scan menu. Handy if you have some volunteers to help with scanning at an event, for instance!
You can add a scanner by going to E-tickets > Scanners

You add someone by creating an account here. If someone is not yet known, a new user is created and receives two e-mails: one to set their password and one to indicate that they have been added as a scanner.
Mails
The mail a scanner receives looks like this:

You can customise it via E-mails > Overview Mails > Scanners > Welcome mail scanner:

You will see this mail only if e-tickets are used at that level!
You can also add someone who is already a user in the system as a scanner of a particular campaign (or sub site or website level). For example, an fundraiser who wants to help with scanning. You will then see this message:

After saving, this fundraiser can then also scan tickets for that level. If someone who starts an fundraiser is also a scanner and logs in to the dashboard, he will enter the dashboard of his fundraiser. He can then go to scanning by clicking on this icon:

 
There are two ways to actually scan: manually and via a camera
Manual scanning
If you go to the overview of tickets via E-tickets > Overview, you can manually set people as present there. You do this by clicking on the three dots behind the fundraiser/participant and marking them as present.

Each ticket comes with a Ticket Number. You can also search by that in the search field.
Should there be internet problems, you can also work with an offline variant by making a download of all tickets in advance. This will then state:Created on || E-ticket number || Name || Title || Scanned on || Scanned by
You can then manually search and tick off ticket numbers.
Scanning via camera
If you go to E-tickets > Scan, it will automatically try to connect to your webcam (computer) or your camera (mobile). After you give that permission, you can scan the QR code. If you scan a code that is invalid you will get a red notification.
The window for scanning looks like this: (with a scanner landing directly in here and thus not landing in a dashboard first)

Here, you can select a camera and then scan a ticket. This could be a camera from your mobile, for example, or a webcam if you work on your PC.
A scanner can also manually enter a code

You hold the QR code in front of the webcam
After a successful scan, you will immediately see the info (at the bottom you will see additional questions, activities, any webshop items and contact details)

For an invalid QR code (with a wrong link), you will see this:
If a ticket has already been scanned, it looks like this:

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 article

Set Editions
Default target amount depending on number of participations
Welcome email - Welcome back!
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. 

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.

With the activities module, a (mandatory) choice question can be added in the registration flow. For example, a list of distances or registration options from which the fundraiser must choose, or the question of what kind of fundraiser it concerns.
 
Content:

Add activities
Selecting and using activities
Showing/not showing selected activity

1. Add activities
Settings ⟶ Activity list
Before you start, you will first need to add activities to the overall list of activities. Think of this as a kind of library where all activities are listed and you can choose which of them you want to use per site, sub site or campaign.

2. Selecting and using activities
At site level, per sub site and per campaign, you can configure activities for use. This configuration consists of 2 parts: selecting activities and using activities.
2.1 Selecting activities
Settings ⟶ Activities
The first part consists of choosing the activities from which the fundraiser can choose. At site level, this allows you to choose from the full list of activities. At sub site and campaign level, a thinned list may be visible, depending on the configuration below. A maximum number of participants can also be specified for each selected activity.

2.2 Using activities
Settings ⟶ Activities
Under the Use activities heading, you determine how the activities are deployed. First, you determine how the activities should behave on This page. Then you determine it for Underlying levels.
Example: at the site level, one can start a general fundraiser and no activity needs to be selected, then on This page"No, there is no need to select.... " is selected. If on underlying campaigns one does need to select an activity, one of the "Yes" options is selected at Underlying levels. Both Yes options determine that an activity must be chosen on these underlying campaigns and can still be chosen which set of activities is shown to the fundraiser.

Here you determine whether fundraisers below the current level should choose an activity.
You can choose to tick that Fundraisers can edit their activity themselves. They can then modify it under my registration. This is only possible if there is space available at the new activity. The moment the activity is modified, the old activity is released again.

You then choose here what fundraisers get to see on the underlying levels (sub sites and/or campaigns).
Example scenario - You include the Dam tot Damloop event in the website and people can register for this at 2 distances: the half and full marathon. You include these 2 distances as activities in the Activities list (at website level). Then manage the Dam tot Damloop, go to Settings > Activities and tick the 2 distances. You indicate that all fundraisers directly below this page must choose an activity. You indicate that fundraisers may change their activity themselves. Two weeks before the event, turn off the option that people may change their activity themselves.
3. Showing/not showing selected activity
The selected activity is displayed in several places. You can choose whether this is desirable or not. These are the following places:
On the team page / in the registration flow
Once a team captain has chosen an activity himself, it is displayed on the team page. It is also displayed in the sign-up flow once an fundraiser wants to join the team. At the step to choose the activity, it is displayed which activity was chosen by the team captain to make the choice easier.
This option can be turned off when setting up activities, via Settings > Activities.

On the fundraiser page
Individual fundraisers also automatically show on their fundraising page which activity they have chosen. Is this not entirely applicable? Let a iRaiser staff member know and we will make this choice invisible across the entire website on the fundraising page.
 
 

It may happen that people want to register, for example for an event, but do not want to create a separate Fundraising page for this purpose. In such a case, you can set the sponsor page to be optional. You set this up by going to the level where you want to set this up and then going to Settings > Fundraising page optional and choosing to make Fundraising page optional there. 

In the Sign up flow, the step where you create the Fundraising page will have a slider:

If you create the action page, the slider will appear at the step where you create the action page.
If you then click this slider you can continue without creating a Fundraising page:

After completing the registration, the participant will receive the 'Welcome email after signing up participant'. If he/she has joined a team then he/she will receive the 'Welcome email after joining team'. If E-tickets are used then the participant will also receive the e-tickets.
 
A participant will appear as 'registration' in the action overview after completing the registration:

A participant can still create a sponsorship page if desired, by going to 'My Registration' and clicking on 'Create a sponsorship page'.

On the platform, you can see the participants by going to the Overview of Participants. That defaults to /participants.

To start an fundraiser, you need to go through the sign up flow. Below is more information on how this works and you can set it up yourself.

Options at Settings > Sign up flow
 

Settings > Sign up flow takes you to the page to edit your sign up flow. Here you can see a number of settings.
View sign up flow
You can always use this button to enter the sign up flow to see what it looks like. The preview mode is only meant to view the sign up flow, you cannot create fundraisers in this mode.
Sign up flow options
Here you can choose which way people can register. You have the following options:

Individual + team + team member
Individual only
Team + team member
Individual + team + team member + company
Individual + company

You will only see the options based on the functionalities that are on. If you are not using the company functionality, then you will only see options 1, 2 and 3. If there are no teams either then you can only select individual here and the entire step in the sign up flow will be skipped.

Adjust order of steps in sign up flow

You can change the order of the first four steps. You do this by dragging them with the mouse until they are in the desired order. The other steps all have a fixed order.
Change text left side
You can change the texts listed on the left-hand side of the sign up flow. For example, if you click change behind 'Who are you'. You can then edit the text in the next screen:

If you click 'Change default value' then you can edit the text and add a description if you want. You can always go back to how it was originally by clicking 'Restore default value' again afterwards. And you change the text on the left (in the green sidebar):

You can do this for all steps.
Other matters
There are a number of other things you can set on the Settings > Sign up flow page (see also screenshot below):

You can change the text on the fundraiser start button (this can vary per campaign/sub site). The new text (e.g. come into fundraiser, swim along, etc.) can be a maximum of 15 characters and that includes spaces.
You can customise the texts on the selection screens. These are selection screens that you see when you click 'start fundraiser' and then have to make a choice:

General selection screen "What do you want to take fundraiser for?". Here you choose what you want to start the fundraiser for, whether it is, for example, a general fundraiser or an fundraiser for a campaign
Sub site selection screen "For which sub site do you want to take fundraiser?". Here you choose for which sub site you want to start an fundraiser
Selection screen campaigns" For which campaign would you like to take fundraiser? Here you choose for which campaign you want to start an fundraiser

Sign up flow steps
The sign up flow that fundraisers see is shown based on settings. Think, for example, that you will see an extra step with registration fee, if you use that. Below, under 'Basic' you will see the steps that are normally always there and under 'Additional' the extra steps/options. Each step is described briefly below. More information on specific functionality can be found in the support articles linked to this page. You may find below a functionality that is not included in your package.
Basic
The following steps belong to the basics of the sign up flow
Sign up options: How do you commit?
Here you can see the sign up flow options and choose how you want to sign up. You can set this via Settings > Sign up flow > Registration options. You will not see this step if there is only one option, such as individual.

Profile details: Who are you?
This is where you create an account for the platform. If you already have an account then you can log in and your already known data will be filled in automatically. The mandatory fields here are First name, Last name and e-mail address and agreeing to the general terms and conditions. We can optionally or compulsorily request the following additional fields here:

Address (Street, House number, Suffix)
Postcode
Location
Country
Gender
Phone number (an additional opt-in will automatically be added here in accordance with telecoms legislation)

Team page
If you choose to create a team, you will be taken to the 'Your team page' page. Here you enter at least:The team name, the amount you want to raise, the title and the motivation. You can fill in the title and motivation beforehand via the standard settings. The amount raised can be set via Settings > Set target amount. If you chose individual or team member in the previous step, skip the team page step.

Personal sponsorship page: individual
You then proceed to the page to create your individual fundraiser. Someone who creates a team in the sign up flow also creates a personal fundraiser. You can fill in the title and motivation beforehand via the standard settings. You can set the amount raised via Settings > Set target amounts. It is also possible to continue without creating an individual fundraiser if the sponsor page is optionally enabled.

Starter donation
By default, this step is on, asking the fundraiser to make an initial donation in advance. This donation is optional, but we see that it is often done. You can adjust the amounts and possibly add a description via Settings > Set donation amounts. We can also turn off the initial donation if you wish.

Overview page
Here you will see an overview of what you will order, or what you have selected. If necessary, you can choose to register another person. This way, you can create an fundraiser for several people at once and check them out.

Thank you page
When payment has been made, you come back to the thank-you page. Here you can customise both the text on the left (which is standard) and the text and image on the right. You can use this to display an image that suits your site.

Supplementary
Entry fee
You can add entry fees, if you ask for this for an event, for example. An fundraiser is required to choose an entry fee, but this could possibly be an entry fee of 0 euro.

Activities
The activities module allows you to add a (mandatory) choice question in the sign up flow. For example, a list of distances from which the fundraiser must choose, or the question of what kind of fundraiser it concerns.

Editions: retention at events
If you use retention (editions) and an edition is set at the level you sign up at, you will be asked if you have participated before. Based on the answer, you can add badges, add a different target amount or send other emails based on the number of participations.
Date of fundraiser
There is a site setting where it is mandatory for an fundraiser to specify an end date of the fundraiser. An fundraiser then gets the mandatory question "Until when does your fundraiser run". If a general countdown date is set at the level they are notified at then the question is not asked. All underlying fundraisers will then automatically get that date as the end date.
Performance: Mileage target
If achievements are possible at the level at which you create your fundraiser, you will be asked how many kilometres the fundraiser wants to cover. This is an optional question, and if filled in then this becomes the target distance for this fundraiser.

You can also choose to leave that question away, by going to Settings > Achievements and unchecking the checkbox "Ask the participant's achievements goal in the registration flow":

Additional questions
We can add extra questions and this can be set per campaign, sub site, at the website level or across the whole site. We can ask the extra questions to fundraisers, but also specifically to team captains. With the extra questions, you can request additional information needed for your event. For example as in the example below that event participants are 18 years or older or have permission from their parent(s)/guardian(s). The answers to these extra questions are reflected in the export (of fundraisers and teams).

Webshop
In the webshop, you can offer any additional items that can be bought. You set these up via Administration > Webshop. The webshop is only accessible in the sign up flow. You cannot therefore sell items via the platform outside the sign up flow.

Discount codes
You can add discount codes and they only apply to the registration fee. That way, you can give early registrants a discount, for example, or let certain people register for free. If that functionality is on, you will see a place to enter a code at the overview screen.

After clicking, you can enter the code

And if the code is correct, the discount code will be applied to the registration fee.

The Achievements Tracker allows campaigners to add sporting achievements to their Fundraising page. The distance covered is added up and displayed on the Fundraising page. A fundraiser can also link to a Strava account, after which new achievements are automatically added to the page!In addition, the total distance covered by all Fundraisers is added up and displayed on the homepage.

Achievements
A fundraiser can add Achievements by logging into the dashboard and finding the 'Achievements' tab that looks like this:

Set target
In addition to setting a target amount, a fundraiser can set a goal for their achievement. In this case, it is a certain number of kilometres. If achievements are turned on, the target distance is also (optionally) asked in the sign-up flow. You can see the new question at the bottom:

 
Add Achievements (manually)
The Add Achievements screen looks like this:

First, you select a Sport. Here you can choose from Running, Hiking, Cycling, Swimming, Skating, Skeelering or Other (for all other sports). 
Next, you give the Achievements a title. This will appear at the top of your Fundraising page.
Fill in the description of the achievement. This is optional; you can continue without filling it in.
Fill in the date and time.
Add your distance covered and click save.

You can see that the fundraiser has been added, and the mileage has been updated. At 'source', there is an iRaiser icon indicating that it was added via the platform.

 
On the front end of the  Fundraising page, it looks like this:
Here, 'Rondje Veluwezoom' is the Title, and the text below it is the Description. 
On the homepage, the number of kilometres travelled over the entire platform has been added under the donation counter:

Strava
You can also choose to link to Strava. Strava is an app that many athletes use to track their Achievements. To avoid having to enter sports Achievements in two places, we have linked to Strava.
Any activity added on Strava is forwarded to the participant's Fundraising page and filed away under the correct sport.
Before you can make use of this, a Strava app has to be created (once) for the platform:
 
Creating a Strava app 
To connect Strava to your platform, a general link to the Strava app must be created. This can be your personal account and is purely used to establish the technical link with the platform. Nothing else happens to your information or account. The easiest way is to create a new Strava account is with a general company email address. You only need this to establish the link. No other emails will be sent to the email address (you can uncheck email updates in the sign-up process).
 
Once that app is installed properly, fundraisers can link to their own Strava account via the platform.
Below is a step-by-step guide to doing this.
1. Create an account at www.strava.com (this is a personal account)2. Go (once logged in) to https://www.strava.com/settings/apiFill in the following:

Name of applicationHere, you fill in the desired name of the app, usually the name of the site or of your foundation
CategorySelect 'Charitable organisation'
ClubThis can be left blank
WebsiteFill in the URL of the website here (starting with https://)
Description of applicationHere, you can describe the application of the app
Authorisation of callback domainFill in oauth.kentaa.nl hereClick agree and create to continue

3. Next, upload your app icon

4. Then send the Client ID and Client secret to iRaiser support (you can create a new ticket for that). If we then add these to your platform, the connection is ready. Make sure you don't send a screenshot, but copy the ID and secret. Otherwise it's hard to take this over manually.

5. Increase number of athletes in appFor new apps, Strava puts a restriction on the number of athletes allowed to connect. They are by default set on 1, which practically means that only one fundraiser can connect to Strava. You need to make sure that this number is increased to 999. To increase this, they have a contact form that you can fill out. Click here for an example of how to fill out this form and here for a sample screenshot you can attach. After filling it out, Strava support will check the application. They do not provide feedback that it has been accepted, so in this case it is a matter of logging in and checking for yourself if the limit has been upped to 999.
 
6. Periodic reviewsStrava may periodically review apps. In such a case, they email to the email address used to create the app. It is then important to do that check, otherwise they may disable/add restrictions to the app at some point.
 
Linking your personal Strava account to a Fundraising page
Now that the Strava app is linked to the platform, a Strava icon will appear:

 
Click connect and give the app permission. Then, newly added achievements within Strava will automatically appear on the Fundraising page (this can take up to 10 minutes). Below is an example of an achievement added via the link (also note the Strava icon):

On the front end of the Fundraising page, it looks like this:

The Achievement above (25.23 km) was manually entered into Strava; therefore, no map is displayed. If a route map is available, then you will see a map of this with the Achievements. An example of this:

Photos taken during the recording of the Achievements in Strava will also be included. For example, see this hike:

Disconnect Strava
The owner of the Fundraiser page has the option to unlink Strava. This can be done from their Strava account and the Fundraiser dashboard within iRaiser. To do so, on the Achievements tab, click on the Strava disconnect cross (bottom right of the screenshot):

A site administrator cannot undo individual Strava links (unless it owns the Fundraiser page). However, a site administrator can choose to turn off Achievements at a level (e.g. for a Campaign). If that happens, all Achievements will be deleted, and links to Strava will be broken. To do this, see Turn off Achievements.
 
Use Achievements
You can specify per level whether you want to use Achievements. You can turn it on or off at the Website level and per Sub site or Campaign. You can also specify whether you want to see the number of kilometres travelled on the counter. You can set this at Sub site or Website level via Settings > Achievements.
Turn off Achievements
If no Achievements have been added under a Campaign, then you can turn Achievements on or off with no consequences. If Achievements have already been added, when you turn them off (by unchecking that Achievements may be used), you will get a notification indicating how many Strava links and achievements will be removed.

Turning off Achievements can be useful for resetting mileage back to zero, for example, in a challenge that lasts a month and has a certain start date. However, in such a case, it is important to inform the fundraisers. Their previous Achievements and target mileage will be removed, so they need to reconnect with Strava.
Visibility
If you turn off the 'Show the number of kilometres travelled on the page' button, no total kilometres will be shown with the donation counter. This can be useful if you don't want to show the final result of the challenge yet, or if the total number of kilometres is irrelevant at that location. You can only set this at Website and Sub site level. 
Excel file
If you create an export of all Fundraiser pages and use the performance tracker, the export will have four related columns. The columns are Target Distance, Distance Traveled (km), Distance Traveled (%) and Achievements Source. 
Distance travelled (%) shows the percentage to which the target distance was achieved. At Achievements Source you can see in what way(s) achievements have been added.

Target distance reached email
If you have achieved the target distance, an automatic email will be sent (provided it is on). This looks as follows:

You can customise the mail as you wish via Emails > Email overview > Fundraisers > Performance goal of the fundraiser has been reached.
 
Achievements in the spotlight
Fundraisers can only find Achievements when they log in to their personal dashboard. It is not shown during the creation of a Fundraising page, so it is important to bring it to their attention. Below are several ways you could do this:
News releaseIf several Fundraising pages have already been created and you want to reach out to the fundraisers, you can do this through a news release. You can create and publish a news release and you can choose to share the message with the existing fundraisers. That way, you can make them aware of the new functionality!
Menu page explaining AchievementsYou can also create a Menu page explaining how Achievements work and how you use the functionality. You could also refer to this in the automatic emails or in a news item. Do you get questions from fundraisers about Achievements? Then include these in a frequently asked questions block!
Automatic email The best way to make new fundraisers aware of the Achievements is via an email that every fundraiser receives. In it, point them to the possibilities of adding Achievements. 
You can choose to include Achievements in the email sent to fundraisers after they create their page, but also, for example, the email sent three days after creating a fundraising page.
 
Would you like an example text for an automatic mail or Menu page? Then click here for a PDF file with texts and screenshots you could use! You can also create a news item based on this.
 

We can turn on Achievements directly for all our generic templates. If you would like to have this feature turned on, please create a new support ticket and we will enable the functionality. If you also send us the Client ID and Client Secret, we can link to Strava directly.

Action starters can get badges in the iRaiser platform to reward them and give them extra motivation. There are two types of badges:

Achievements badges. These are badges that one can earn by actively recruiting. These badges ("medals") are greyed out on the Fundraising page and are coloured in when the respective goal is achieved.
Retention badges. This badge is linked to the number of participations. This badge ("ribbon") appears on the participant's action picture and shows how many times someone has already participated in the event.

Badges for achieved goals (Achievements badges)
These badges are aimed at motivating action starters to get started with their Fundraising page and reach various goals.
For example, someone gets a badge for the first Donations and for posting a blog post. There are also badges for the amount of money raised (250, 500 and 1000 euros) and badges for the number of supporters (10, 25 and 50 donations).
When this functionality is on, the following badges automatically appear on each Fundraising page:

These badges are greyed out when not yet achieved and coloured in when achieved. The green colour you see above in the badge is the spot colour set on the site. This way, the badges are nicely integrated into your style.
Badges are automatically coloured when the condition is achieved. When the functionality is turned on, all badges of existing action starters are also awarded retroactively. 
There are no emails associated with the badges. Although you could copyëren the email "More raised than set amount". You can then indicate in the mail when they reach 250, 500 and 1000 euros that they have earned a badge. Hooray!

The badges have a fixed layout and also fixed conditions, and you can only choose to put all eight of them on them. You cannot make your own adjustments to this at the moment. We do want to make this adjustable in due course.
Interested? Then send a message to iRaiser and we can turn it on for you!

Badges for number of participations (retention badges)
You have the option of displaying a badge (image) on participants' fundraising page depending on the number of times they have participated.
These Badges are part of the retention functionality, which consists of:

The edition of your event -> This feature must be enabled to use the badges and retention functionality.
A conditional welcome email based on number of participations
Able to set target amounts for action starters based on number of participations

The aim is to make participants feel welcome and encourage them to participate more often. For a complete description, read the article on retention functionality.
You can upload an image per participation. We have created four designs for you, see the downloads below. But you can also choose to design your own badges. This image has specific requirements: it must be a png image with transparency, the image must be 745x419 Pixels in size. So a landscape image. The badge is being placed over the existing image, so make sure the badge is not too large and is in one of the corners.

You can only add retention badges if an edition is set. Please contact us for this.
Download below your set of badges for returning participants. 

When registering a participant/fundraiser, it is possible to charge a registration fee, so registering for the event and creating the personal fundraising page is one integrated process.
 
The registration fee must always be paid when creating an fundraiser, regardless of whether you sign up as a member of a team or as an individual participant. Registration fees can be added at multiple levels and 'inherit down'. When registration fees are added at the website level, any sub sites and campaigns receive this same registration fee. It is then possible to override the registration fee if there is a different value at the relevant level. It is possible to add multiple registration fee options (with different amounts).
Participants can decide how they want to be registered. This can be useful, for example, for:

Different distances with different starting rates;
Age groups where children pay a reduced rate;
In addition to the regular registration rate, offer a 2nd rate where a T-shirt of the event is offered.

Add registration fee
Settings ⟶ registration fee
The Add registration fee button allows you to add the option(s), asking for a title and amount. Next to this, it asks whether the paid registration fee should be included in the counter position on the website. Usually, the registration fee is meant to cover expenses and is not included (as donation money) in the counter position, but this can of course vary.

Change registration fee
Settings ⟶ Registration fee
By clicking the Edit button, it is possible to edit the title and amount of the option. This can be useful when offering an early bird option, where the amount is increased over time.
View chosen registration fee
- The campaigner himself and the site administrator can see what registration fee the campaigner has paid by managing the campaign under My Entry. In addition, the registration fee choice can be viewed in the participants' exports.
- On the fundraising page, the chosen registration fee is always displayed. This is a fixed element of the page and cannot be hidden. 
- Registration fees are reflected in the Excel export of all fundraisers and donations.

It is possible within the platform to request additional information. For example, requesting a shirt size, explicit parental consent, agreeing to the additional participant regulations, etc. But also, for example, requesting extra information when making a Donations to apply for tax certificates or a special opt-in to be called. 
There are three places where we can add additional questions for you. In the sign up flow, the donation form and in a customised form. You cannot add the extra questions yourself. Should you wish to do so, please contact us and we will add them.

Types of extra questions
Input fields

We have two types of input fields, a textarea and a textarea. The two are distinguished by the size of rows displayed. If you expect a short answer then you choose a textarea. In it you ask a question (which has a maximum of 40 characters) a the user fills in an answer: 

If you expect a longer answer you can work with a textarea: 
PlaceholderFor a text field or -area, you can specify a placeholder. This will then appear when the question is completed. This can be useful if you want to receive the information in a particular way, for example "enter the date dd-mm-yyyy here".

Validation typesYou can have a specific form of an  answer specified. For example, if you ask for a specific date or a bank account number. If information is then specified that does not meet those specific validation requirements, the answer will not be accepted. These are the validation types we have:

Numbers only
Only letters, dashes and dots
Numbers, letters, dashes and dots only
Valid e-mail address
Valid phone number
Valid IBAN number
Valid zip code
Valid date of birth (dd-mm-yyyy)
Valid date (dd-mm-yyyy)
Valid date in the future (dd-mm-yyyy)
Valid date in the past (dd-mm-yyyy) 

Multiple-choice options
We have three options for multiple-choice options, and with all three you may also optionally choose to display only one option. These are the dropdown, radio and checkbox:
Dropdown
At the dropdown you ask a question after which the user has to click on the answer option to expand it. There they can then select one of the choices.  
Radio
For radio, the first response option is selected by default. Users can then choose to select another option instead.

Checkbox
This allows you to tick one or more answer options yourself.

For all the questions above (except radio), you can indicate whether that question is mandatory or optional. 
Extra text
To introduce the questions, or give some extra information, we can insert titles and info text. A title has a slightly larger font than the infotext. 
 
Where can additional questions be added?
There are three places where we can add additional questions. In the sign up flow, on the donation form and in a customised form.
Sign up flow
The additional questions are asked in the sign up flow after creating the sponsor page (or team page/company page) and before the webshop/startup donation/overview page (depending on which steps there are in the sign up flow):

Donation form
The addition of additional questions to the donation form works the same and you will then see these below the personal data. The only difference is that no special personal data should be asked in this place.
 
Customised form
We can create a customised form. This is in the form of a Menu item and in it you can request information (separate from the sign-up and donation flow).
You enter an e-mail address and the completed forms are one on one forwarded to that e-mail address. These come in as separate emails and you cannot download an Excel file from this.
Optionally, you can set another destination url where the user, after filling in the form, is automatically redirected.
Below are some examples of applications of custom forms:
Customised form of the Giro di Muscoli for participants in the family stageHere they ask participants to fill in the names.  
Customised Night of Refugee form to order t-shirts separately
Customised form from the Metakids Foundation for a participant action.An action starter sells shells and these can be ordered using this form. This action starter receives the submitted emails and can match the orders to the payment reference.
On which levels can additional questions be set?"
Customised forms always appear as Menu items, but additional questions for the sign-up or donation flow can be set at different levels. Below you can see which ones:

Everywhere on the website
On the homepage only
On the homepage of a Sub site
On a specific Campaign

In addition, you can choose between whether the additional questions should be asked to a campaigner, a team captain or a company starter.
Where do I see the completed answers to the additional questions?
For the Donations form you will see these in your dashboard near the donation itself if you click on the 'eye'. In addition, you can find it in the Donations Excel file. An extra tab has been added there where the completed answers to the extra questions are listed.
In the Sign up flow, you can see the extra questions in the actions/participants when you click on the 'eye'. In addition, you can find them in the Fundraisers Excel file. There too, an extra tab has been added where the completed answers to the extra questions can be found. For Teams and Companies it works in the same way (click on eyelet, and in the export of Teams and Companies respectively)
In the case of a adjusted form, the completed results are emailed to the email address provided.
