Images and Attachments

Each campaign can have two images: a product image and a header image. The product image should be 200x200 pixels and the header image should be 600x300 pixels.

Attachments are displayed at the bottom of the campaign. These are used to make supplemental forms and information available to the purchaser. Attachments are displayed in alphabetical order by name.

Click on the Upload links to upload an image or the Upload Attachment button to add an attachment.

Negative and Positive Amounts

The campaign option amount can be positive or negative. However, the price of the campaign must be greater than or equal to zero. If campaign option combinations result in a negative amount, zero will be used for the amount.

Notes

• Changes to the name of the option will be reflected in reports, however, existing orders and carts will continue to show the value when the item was added to the cart.
• When a campaign option is removed, the option will remain in existing orders and carts.
• Campaign options do not support translations.

Use the Unit Sale Report to view sales summaries with options included.

Auto-Select Campaign During First Step

During First Step, FutureFund will automatically select the suggested donation amount for a Donation Drive or Membership campaign when the ‘Automatically select campaign’ option is selected. The purchaser can change the selection on the purchase page. Donation Drive must have a suggest amount set and memberships must have an audience set to student or parent.

To enable auto-select:

1. In the Admin, click on the View button next to the campaign
2. Click on the Edit button
3. Check the Automatically select campaign option in the Advanced Settings section
4. Click the Save button to save the change

Having Your Organization Cover the Platform Fee

By default, your account-wide fee setting decides who pays the platform fee. If you want one specific campaign to always be fee-free for buyers, without changing that setting for everything else, open the campaign’s Options tab, expand Advanced settings, and check “Organization always pays the platform fee”. See Platform Fees for full details, including how mixed carts and bundles are handled.

This is available on Donation Drive, Purchase, Membership, Tiered Membership, Sign Up, Ticket, Pledge, and Campaign Bundle campaigns. Ticket campaigns can also turn it on from the campaign edit screen.

Tax Deductible

Campaigns marked as tax-deductible will display the following message on the purchase page:

The following information is displayed on the receipt:

Your donation is tax-deductible to the full extent provided by law. No goods or services were provided in exchange for your contribution. PTA is a 501(©)(3) nonprofit organization TAX ID: 00-000000000

If the purchase is over $250, the purchaser will receive a Tax Receipt at the end of the year when sent by an authorized administrator.

To mark a campaign as tax-deductible:

1. In the Admin, open the campaign under Campaigns
2. Click on the View button next to the campaign
3. Click on the Edit button in the Settings section
