Introducing two new features—the Quick Donation Embed and the Donation Flag!

The Quick Donation Embed allows nonprofit users to embed a streamlined version of our Embedded Donation Form specifically for the purpose of quickly enabling anyone to donate to your nonprofit. The Quick Donation Embed can be placed on a website and configured for one-time donation, with a specific frequency, and with a suggested donation amount.

The Donation flag allows nonprofit users to create a persistent flag that can sit on any website that can redirect a donor to the donation page. The Donation flag is the first of a new component called “Elements.” Elements are components that provide the ability to showcase information from the CharityStack platform for specific use cases. Elements can be used in either in marketing material or embedded on your website.

If you ever need help setting up and embeds or elements, please reach out to your CharityStack representative!

Introducing our new Crowdfunding form! The Crowdfunding form is similar to the Standard form in most functionalities, however, it differs in one key capability. The ability to define a title and description for the Amount Buttons.

In order to create a Crowdfunding Form, navigate to CharityStack Dashboard, click the “Create” button at the top, and select the “Embedded Form” option. Once the side menu appears, you’ll now be able to select “Crowdfunding” under the “Form Type” section and begin customizing your form.

The Crowdfunding form allows the donor to select a specific amount that may correspond to a particular impact metric or gift. A nonprofit user can only enable up to 4 amount buttons with a Title and Description.

If you ever need help setting up your Embedded Form, please reach out to your CharityStack representative!

Introducing CharityStack's Checkout and Embeds!

Checkout is a composable form that allows users to enable donations anywhere on their website and consolidate the payment experience across all use cases. Checkout allows nonprofits to accept payments from any of the embeds that CharityStack provides.

Embeds are a new way to place different fundraising components on your website, that is more centered around your brand, faster at load, and built with your custom website experience in mind.

What is Checkout?

Checkout is a pop-up form that is embedded on your website that allows you to accept payments anywhere on your website.

Checkout is composed of two pages on the left and right sides.

The left side consists of:

The right side consists of:

Checkout will be a pop-up form that will work with our new Embeds product and can be initiated from any part of your website. In the next few weeks, we will be introducing new Embeds that you're able to place on your website that can initiate Checkout from anywhere on your website.

What are Embeds?

Embeds will be replacing the current donation form. CharityStack will be moving away from embedding donation forms via an iFrame in favor of embedding components directly on your website. Currently, the only Embed that is available is the Donation Form. However, in the next few weeks, we'll be releasing the following Embeds:

How do Embeds and Checkout work together?

With Embeds, you're able to place a more streamlined form or multiple forms anywhere on your website that will initiate a Checkout overlay anywhere on your website. In the future, when we release new Embeds, you'll be able to place these components anywhere on your website while maintaining a consolidated payment experience.

With this new approach our donation forms now:

In the next few weeks, a CharityStack representative will be contacting you to replace your current donation form with our new Embed donation form that is compatible with Checkout.

Nonprofits can now enable our Double the Donation integration in order to seamlessly enable company matching onto our platform. When a donor inputs their employer on our form, they will be given an email after they donate to match their donation on their employee giving platform.

Nonprofits can now add custom input fields to their donation forms in order to garner more information from their donors when they make a donation.

Previously on CharityStack, donors were only able to donate only One-Time and Monthly. Now, donors are able to donate Daily, Weekly, Monthly, and Annually now. Nonprofits will be able to enable multiple recurring options on the dashboard.
