Q: Can donors indicate their matching gift eligibility on my GoFundMe Charity donation forms?

Q: Is there an additional charge for this integration?

A: Depending on your level of services with Double the Donation, the GoFundMe Charity integration with 360MatchPro may not be included in your subscription. Contact your Double the Donation team to check.

 

Q: Does this integration include email automation functionality?

A: This integration does support email automation functionality, which includes the ability to customize emails with organizational branding as well as personalize email outreach to each donor. See guidelines for email customization here.

 

Q: Where can I embed Double the Donation's matching gift search plugin?
A: We recommend that you incorporate Double the Donation's matching gift search tool across your broader fundraising. To install the search tool anywhere on your website, simply copy and paste the Embed Code from your 360MatchPro portal. 
 
We recommend that you create a dedicated matching gift page where you can explain what matching gift programs are and provide donors with a chance to look up their employer's program forms, guidelines, and instructions. This page can be used as a resource to be included in emails, newsletters, and direct messages. This page will also be connected to your 360MatchPro automated email outreach.
