Live Display allows anyone hosting an in-person event to showcase campaign activity in real-time on a TV, projector screen, or tablet. Live Display also allows event hosts to encourage attendees to donate using Text-to-Donate and Scan-to-Donate.
Campaign stats, goal progress, and the supporter feed will update in real time as donations are made. Note: the supporter feed will only show donations and not ticket purchases or auction purchases.

For a text-to-donate box to be displayed, you will need to set up a text-to-donate keyword and be a verified non-profit.
