Add fundraising participants to your campaign and track progress towards your organization's goal! Team members (whether on a larger team or on an individual basis) can receive credit for donations by sharing their custom link, and any donations made will automatically be credited to them. Without using the link, donors still also have the option to assign a donation to a specific team member, to ensure credit goes to the correct party.
If you are looking to add users (admins or editors) to your account, please see our guide on managing users – team members do not have account access!
Inviting team members 💌
There are a few different ways you can invite team members to a Page or Event campaign, depending on the option most convenient for your organization.
Share link 🔗
Go to your campaign's Team tab, and click Members in the sub-menu.
Click Add team member and a popup list of options will appear.
The first option displayed is your share link – just copy the URL, and share it online!
Invite by email ✉️
Go to your campaign's Team tab, and click Members in the sub-menu.
Click Add team member and a popup list of options will appear.
Click Invite by email, enter the email addresses of the team members you'd like to invite (separated by commas) and click Send Invites.
Prospective team members will be sent the following email:
Public button on the campaign page 💻
Each campaign with team member fundraising enabled will include a public button to join the campaign on the main campaign page. By default, this button will say "Fundraise". Visitors just need to click this button to sign up to be team members on your campaign!
To enable or disable this option, go to your campaign's Team tab.
Click Other options in the sub-menu.
Toggle the Enable Public "Fundraise" Button option on or off.
You can also change the text that displays on the Fundraise button using the text box located right below this setting. Alternatives include "Join a Team" or "Join & Fundraise".
What about adding them manually? ✏️
You can also add team members manually, but because no invite is sent, the team member won't have a Givebutter login, and cannot edit their information or add a bio. This works best if your team members don't need to manage their own information.
Sending team member reminders ⏰
You can easily send email reminders to anyone you invited (via email) from the campaign Teams tab. You can only send one reminder per 24-hour period.
Go to your campaign's Team tab, and click Other options in the sub-menu.
Scroll to the section called Pending Invitations.
Hit the button that says Send reminders to email a friendly reminder to join your campaign.
To send reminders, you must have at least one pending invite. The button will not appear if there are no pending team member invitations.
