Donation Page Builder

Donation Pages allow you to build custom pages and utilize features to increase conversions. Within the Builder, you will find easy-to-use tools to create beautiful pages to meet your fundraising goals!

Page Name

Apply a custom Page Name to the Donation Page by clicking the Pencil icon in the upper left corner of the Builder toolbar. Enter your new Page Name, then click the Check to save your changes.

​

The Page Name is not visible to donors. This is an internal field that helps keep your pages organized and easily identifiable.

Page URL (Page Slug)

The Page URL (Page Slug) is what makes each individual Action Page unique. Each Page Slug must be unique to each page. If you have already used donate as the Page URL for another Action Page, it cannot be used again.

Click the Pencil icon in the upper right corner of the Builder toolbar. Enter your new Page Slug, then click the Check to save your changes.

​

​ Examples: donate, give, contribute, giving-tuesday, support etc.

​

The Page URL is the last portion of the Share URL for your Action Page.

Presets

Presets allow you to save a configuration for individual areas of the Builder. These Presets can then be used for other Action Pages, limiting the need to manually edit each new page from scratch.

Presets are available within the following areas of the Builder:

  • Design

Brand

  • Finance

Amounts

  • Finance

Funds

  • Finance

Payments

  • Form
  • Workflows

Upgrades

  • Workflows

Recovery

  • Workflows

Receipt

  • Settings

General

To create a new Preset, click Save as Preset within the Preset block pinned to the top of the tab within the Builder. Next, enter a custom Preset Name . The Preset can then be used for other Action Pages.

The Presets feature is optional . To bypass creating a Preset, click Publish in the upper right corner of the Builder. Note that the Preset block will state " No Preset ."

Design

Access the Design tab within the Donation Page Builder to add content and customize the branding for your Donation Page.

​ Pro tip: Simply adding a logo or image and choosing an Action Button color is an easy way to elevate your page to the next level!

Content​

The Design​

Content tab allows you to add a custom header and content blocks such as Text, Images, and Video and enable features like Exit Intent and Impact.

Edit the Header within the Design​

Content tab to apply a Title to your page. We recommend applying a Title if you do not have a Logo available.

To add a Title to your page:

  1. Hover over Header

Title. This field will be labeled Logo if a logo image has been applied to the Action Page. 2. Click the Pencil icon to edit. 3. Next, enable the Show Title toggle. 4. Optionally , enter custom text into the Title field. The account's Display Name will automatically be applied in this field . 5. Adjust the Alignment .

Click Done in the upper right corner of the Header Editor.

Body Section​

Add content blocks within the Body Section of your Donation Page within the Design​

Content tab. The following blocks are available:

  • Image : The following files are supported: JPG, PNG, and GIF

  • Video : The following video links are supported: YouTube, Vimeo, Facebook, and Rumble

  • Divider : This can be used as a page break or as a design element.

  • Impact : Encourage giving and show your supporters the impact of their gifts.

​ This feature is for visual purposes only and will not impact the donation amount processed.

  • Timer : Use the timer to set a deadline or countdown to encourage support from your donors. Setting a deadline or countdown using the Timer block does not disable the Action Page once the timer has run out. The timer will be set to zero. The time will need to be manually removed or updated to reset the deadline or countdown.

We recommend applying Disclaimer language at the Fund level within the Settings​

Finance​

Funds tab of your account. When applied at the Fund level, the Disclaimer language will be applied to all Action Pages that the Fund is connected to. To learn more, click here!

Background Image​

Add a Background Image within the Page block of the Design​

Content tab. Use the Image Scale to adjust the layout of the Background Image.

Pro Tip: For optimal resolution, we recommend the Background Image size be at least 1920 x 1080.

Disclaimer: When placing a Background Image, the image will not be displayed within the Builder. Once you have added a Background Image or made adjustments, we recommend publishing the page, then copying the Share URL and opening the link in a new tab in your browser.

Page Layout​

Within Design​

Content , adjust your Page Layout by selecting the following:

  • 1-Column
  • 2-Column

The 2-column layout type is recommended for Donation Pages with multiple Content Blocks (Text, Images, Videos, etc.). When the 2-Column layout is selected, all Content Blocks will be shown in the left column; the right column will include the Finance, Form, and Payment Blocks.

Form Position:

  • Left
  • Center
  • Right

Form Presentation

  • Stacked (Default)
  • Stepped

The Stepped form presentation separates the Finance, Form, and Payment Blocks into individual steps.

Example: Single-Column, Center Position, Stepped

Tip: To view the customizations you have made to the Page Layout, we recommend publishing the page, then copying the Share URL and opening the link in a new tab in your browser. The changes made to the Page Layout will not be displayed within the Builder.

Exit Intent​

By enabling the Exit Intent feature for your Action Page, a popup will appear when a supporter attempts to exit the page before completing their submission.

​Customize the Exit Intent feature by adding a Title, Image, or GIF, and a custom Message.

Tracking Tip: When the Exit Intent feature is enabled on an Action Page, an ?exitIntent=true URL parameter will be added to the URL for tracking purposes. This parameter will only be passed when a supporter interacts with the Exit Intent feature and makes a successful submission. You can locate this data within the CSV export under the Referrer to Form URL column or in the Referrer field included in your data relays to your connected integrations.

Brand​

The Design​

Brand tab allows you to upload a custom Logo, edit the color scheme, and adjust the type settings.

To add a Logo to the Donation Page, follow the steps below:

  1. Drag + Drop an image into the Logo uploader, or click Browse to select an image from your device. If an image has previously been uploaded to the fundraising account, click Browse to access the Media Manager. Images that have been uploaded to the account will be available for use.
  2. Next, choose Fill or Custom to adjust the size of your image. Fill will expand the image to fill out the entire Header block. When a Custom size is entered, padding is automatically added to the Logo image. 16px is added horizontally, and 8px is added vertically.
  3. Optionally , enter a Logo Link URL . Entering a Logo Link URL allows the image to become clickable to easily redirect your supporters to another webpage.

Tip: It is recommended that Logo images are at least 450 pixels wide.

Text: The Text color selected will be the default color used for Text Blocks added to the Donation Page. The Text color can be edited further within the Text Editor.

Background: If a Background Image is not uploaded to the Donation Page, the selected color will be used to fill the background.

Allow donors to make a future pledge by adding a Date and a call-to-action Message to the Future Pledge Upgrade field.

When a donor opts into the Future Pledge Upgrade, a donation will be processed at the time of the submission, and their pledged donation will be withdrawn on the future date set in the Action Page Builder. The donor will receive an email notification three days prior to the withdrawal.

When creating a Hidden field, be sure to apply a custom Key . The Key must be unique.

Workflows

Access the Workflows tab within the Builder to enable Upgrades , Recovery (Abandoned Actions) , and customize Receipts .

Upgrades​

The Upgrades feature enables organizations to encourage recurring gifts and support for additional fundraising efforts by applying Pre-conversion and Post-conversion Upgrades to their Donation Pages.

With Pre-conversion Upgrades , you can ask your supporters to commit to a monthly donation for a percentage of their initial one-time gift before making a successful submission.

Post-conversion Upgrades allow you to redirect your supporters to another Action Page after they have made their initial submission.

Pre-conversion Upgrades​

You will be redirected to the Pre-conversion Upgrade editor where you can customize the Body Text , Accept Action Button , Decline Action Button , and Variables .

Tip: For recurring upgrades, we recommend customizing the Accept and Decline Action Button Text fields to reaffirm the donor's opt-in before making a selection.

Popup Recurring Ask ({`ask}`): This is the percentage of the initial amount selected by the donor that will be presented in the popup ask as a monthly commitment.

Minimum pop-up recurring ask: This field allows you to set a minimum recurring commitment amount. This is helpful when donors give smaller dollar donations in their original submission.

Maximum recurring amount: Set a maximum recurring amount. Any calculated ask greater than this set amount will not be shown. Donors whose donation amount exceeds the Maximum recurring amount will not be shown the recurring upgrade. Their one-time donation will be processed successfully upon submission.

Round to nearest multiple: Rounds the popup ask to the nearest value multiple.

Impact Value ({`impact}`): Use the Popup Recurring Ask amount to calculate an impact value.

Variable Tags: Utilize the following Variable Tags to customize the Upgrade Message for each donor experience:

  • {`first\_name}`
  • {`last\_name}`
  • {`ask}`
  • {`impact}`

Before exiting the Builder, click Publish in the upper right corner.

Post-conversion Upgrade​

Note: If a Recovery Message is enabled on an Action Page you plan to connect as a Post-Conversion Upgrade, the Recovery Message will not be triggered on the Upgrade.

Once you have built the Action Page(s), return to the Workflows​

Upgrade tab within the Builder to set up your Post-conversion Upgrade.

​

To connect a Post-Conversion Upgrade, select Add post-conversion upgrade , then Click + Create New . You will then be redirected to the Post-Conversion Upgrade editor where you can add a Name to the upgrade and set breakpoints.

Breakpoints allow you to determine which supporters are directed to the upgrade. The default breakpoint is set from $0 - $1,000. At this breakpoint, supporters who gave over $1,000 will not be shown the upgrade. You can adjust the breakpoints to fit your supporter base and needs.

Pro-tip: Set up additional breakpoints by clicking the blue + Add Breakpoint button at the bottom of the editor. Supporters will be directed to the breakpoint that corresponds to their original submission amount.

To connect an Action Page(s) to the Post-conversion Upgrade, click + Add New . If multiple Action Pages are selected, they will appear in a grid format for your supporters.

To override the Preset Amounts listed on the Action Page(s) you have connected, click the Override Amounts toggle. An Amounts menu will appear where you can customize the Preset Amounts by Dollar or Percentage .

Click Save before exiting the Pre-conversion editor. You will then be redirected to the Upgrade tab. Next, click Add post-conversion recurring from the Upgrade Workflow list, then select your new Post-conversion Upgrade from the dropdown list. Before exiting the Builder, click Publish in the upper right corner.

Recovery (Abandoned Actions)​

The Abandoned Actions feature automatically sends follow-up emails to supporters who were unable to successfully complete their donation. If a supporter enters their email address on your Donation Page but does not make a successful submission, a custom message will be sent to help recover the lost conversion.

Access the Workflows​

Recover tab of the Builder, then click Enable Abandoned Actions to utilize Recovery Messages.

Once you have enabled the feature, customize the following:

  • Email From Name
  • Reply Email
  • Subject
  • Footer
  • Callback URL

To add a Logo to your Receipt, click the space above the default Message included in the display on the right. You can then Drag + Drop an image, or click Browse to open the Media Manager. Within the Media Manager, you can upload a new image or select an image you have previously used for the fundraising account. The size of the Logo cannot be adjusted at this time.

Receipt Message​

Sincere gratitude for your donors' generous support is the best way to let them know they are appreciated and encourage future support!

Receipt tab. A Text Editor will appear, allowing you to add your custom Message. Once you have added your custom Message, click Save within the Text Editor.

Callback URL​

A Callback URL allows you to redirect your supporters to a unique page after a successful submission has been made.

Applying a Callback URL will override the Confirmation Page provided by Anedot. You may redirect your supporters to a new donation page, your organization's website, or a unique Thank You page built outside of Anedot.

To apply a Callback URL, access the Workflows​

Receipts tab within the Builder. Within the Receipt tab, scroll to the bottom for the editor and enter the page URL into the Callback URL field .

Settings

Within the Settings tab of the Builder, you can customize the SEO and Social Settings , and apply Page Values and Tracking Codes .

Sharing​

Under the Settings​

Sharing tab, you will find the following tabs:

  • Embed Code
  • Page URL
  • SEO
  • Social Settings
  • Page Specific Values

Embed Code​

The Embed Code can be used to embed your Anedot Donation Page directly into your website using an iFrame .

While the Embed Code is available for power users, Anedot generally recommends utilizing the Hosted Page (Share URL) over iFrames. Here’s why:

  • Embedded pages rely on your webpage security and may be less secure than a hosted page.
  • You may have reduced conversion rates due to connection issues with the server.
  • PayPal, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and Bitcoin are unavailable with embedded pages.
  • Design elements and page disclaimers are excluded from embedded pages and require customization using HTML and CSS within your webpage builder.
  • Supporters may experience errors accessing an embedded page from mobile devices.

When completing the setup of your webpage, we recommend testing the compatibility of your page with different browsers and devices .

You can review this guide to troubleshoot iFrames.

Page URL​

The Page URL is what makes each individual Action Page unique. If you have already used /donate as the Page URL for another Action Page, it cannot be used again.

Examples: give, contribute, giving-tuesday etc.

Tip: The Page URL can also be customized at the top of the Builder. Click the Pencil icon to the right of the Page URL to edit.

SEO​

Customize the SEO (Search Engine Optimization) by adding a Title Tag and Meta Description. This information will be used when your page is public and appears in search results.

Social Settings​

Add a Share Title , Share Description , and Share Images to the Social Settings tab. This data will auto-populate when the Action Page is shared on social media platforms, and through text.

Page Specific Values​

Within the Page Specific Values tab, you can set a fundraising Goal and add a Source Code and Page Values for Custom Hidden Fields.

Enter an Amount within the Goal field to visibly track fundraising success on the Donation Page. Continue to the step below to learn more!

A Source Code can be applied at the page level in the Default Source Code field. When a Source Code is applied, it will show within the Page URL. You can remove this from the Page URL and the Source Code will still track successfully.

When Custom Hidden Fields are added within theForm tab of the Builder, you will be able to apply a custom Page Value for the Hidden Field Key on this tab. This is tracked as a separate field from the Default Source Code.

Goals​

When an Initial Goal amount is applied to the Action Page, a Goal Tracker will appear at the top of the public Donation Page.

The Goal Tracker updates in real-time and will include Completed donations.

The Goal amounts and percentages are shown as rounded to the nearest whole percentage. The amount is then rounded accordingly to a whole amount.

Example: If the Total Raised amount of Completed donations is $141,540.85 and correlates to 12.87% of the goal, we will round the goal percentage to 13% and show a whole amount of 143k on the public page.

Optionally, an External Amount can be added to the Goal to account for funds raised offline.

​

Once the Goal is met, you can access the Builder to increase the Goal, or remove the Goal from the page.

General​

To add Tracking Codes and Custom CSS to your action page, access the Settings-General tab within the Builder.

For further information on how to set up tracking for Anedot pages, check out our Tracking Codes guide here!

To request access to Custom CSS, please contact our Support team here .
