Easily Collect and Raise Money for Events
This post written by Stephanie Fader, Marketing & PR Manager
As we move into fall, we start to see a lot of group events and fundraisers (PTO events, walk-a-thons, etc). Those are often events for which there is a need to collect money. Enter PayPal.
If you need to collect or raise money for an event, use the PayPal feature built right in to the party planning workflow to request donations via PayPal or credit card.
To use the PayPal feature, go to the Invitation Options page and answer “Yes” to the question, “Request contributions via PayPal or credit card?” You’ll see the options below where you can enter the name of your event or what you’re raising money for, a suggested contribution amount, and your goal.
When your guests RSVP, they will have the ability to contribute to your charitable cause or simply help alleviate your expenses. Here is what guests see:
Hopefully you’ll be able to take advantage of this useful feature so you don’t have to worry about awkwardly tracking guests down for donations!
