How Charity Crowdfunding Works
Instead of relying on a small group of major donors or one big event, with our crowdfunding campaigns your supporters each get their own fundraising page and ask friends, family, and colleagues to donate. This personal, peer-to-peer approach helps you reach far more people than traditional fundraising methods.
Campaigns typically run for 24 to 72 hours, creating urgency and momentum. And because people are more likely to give when asked by someone they know, this model drives higher engagement, attracts new donors, and raises significantly more - fast.
How We Compare to Other Fundraising Platforms
Most fundraising platforms provide limited options, retain ownership of your donor data, and take a big fee. Charity Extra gives you more control, better pricing, and superior fundraising features.
Four Proven Crowdfunding Strategies You Can Use to Raise More
Every Charity Extra campaign is customisable but these four strategies are the building blocks of a high-performing fundraiser. We'll help you find the right mix for your audience.
Time Based Campaigns
Short time limited campaigns creates urgency and motivates both fundraisers and donors to act now before it's too late helping you to reach your fundraising goal fast.Most crowdfunding campaigns run for 24-72 hours but you can choose your own timeframe or even run one indefinitely as part of a long term capital fundraising appeal.
Matched Donations
Offering your donors the chance to double their donation via generous individuals or sponsors increases the chance they'll give, and give more.You can match all donations, match only up to a certain amount, or choose not to offer matched giving at all, it's completely up to you.
Goal-Oriented
Setting visible goals and milestones will motivate fundraisers and donors to push your campaign to the finish line and hit your intended goal.You can even set a bonus fundraising goal if your goal is hit early or choose to run a campaign without any set goal at all and run an open-ended fundraiser.
