Mobile Giving for LIve and Virtual Events

Add excitement—and raise more money—at your next event with a mobile phone campaign by textgiving.com. During your event, guests will be able to send tribute messages and philanthropic pledges from their mobile phones.

Within moments, their messages appear on the screen and their pledges are added to the tally. Your donors receive instant recognition for their generosity, which encourages other guests to give spontaneously. Your organization receives unrestricted gifts and the support of many new donors. 

Challenge Campaigns

A popular way to encourage giving is by offering dollar-for-dollar matches from other donors. Challenge campaigns are announced from the podium and a special tally is broadcast onscreen.

Capture New Donors

More than 78% of people who attend fundraising events are non-donating guests or comps. And more than 91% of those never will become donors. With a textgiving.com campaign, you can convert these prospects into donors at your event, when their interest is at its peak. The donors receive instant recognition, while your organization captures their phone number for future follow-up.

Participate Remotely

Even if your supporters cannot attend, they can still participate by sending in their pledges before the event. Their messages will be stored and presented at the event along with those of your guests. It’s a great way to build a broader base of support.

Payments

The donors pay their pledges via a link sent to them immediately after their text is received. Payments are processed by Stripe are deposited directly into your organization’s bank account. Stripe charges 2.9% + 30¢ per transaction. ibidmobile.net does not charge any additional fees for credit cad processing.
