Your account comes with a ready-made donation form. You don't need to build anything: copy its link and put it on your website, in emails or on social media. The Instant form page gives you the link and shows how to pre-fill the form.
Charity accounts see this page. Users need the Donation Forms permission to open it.
Want a form with your own design, texts and options? Create a MYSITE form instead. See Create a MYSITE donation form.
Where do I find my donation form link?
Go to Fundraise › Donation Forms › Instant form.
Under Free, Ready to Use Donation Form, find your link:
Israeli charities get two links: English: and Hebrew:.
All other charities get one link, next to English:.
Click Copy next to the link you want.
Paste the link wherever donors should click to give.
How do I pre-select an amount, currency or frequency?
You can add parameters to the end of the link. The form then opens with these choices already made. The section Adding Parameters to your form lists them.
Click Add to URL next to a parameter. It is added to the end of the link in the box above.
Israeli charities: it is added to both the English and the Hebrew link.
Each parameter is added only once.
In the link box, change the example value to the value you want (for example, change
100to250).Click Copy and use the new link.
Parameter | Example | What it does |
Sum: |
| Pre-selects the amount. Replace 100 with your amount. |
Currency: |
| Pre-selects the currency: |
Frequency: |
|
|
Project: |
| Assigns the donation to a project. Replace 999 with your project ID. |
Skipping to Step 2: |
| Opens the form at step 2, where the donor enters their personal details. |
You can also type a parameter yourself. Start each one with &.
Where do I find my project ID?
Go to Settings › Organization › Projects/Allocations. The list shows the ID of each project.
If your form has no project drop-down, the project is still assigned "behind the scenes".
When can donors skip straight to step 2?
Use &step=2 when the link already pre-selects the sum, the currency and the frequency. The donor then lands on the step where they enter their name and details.
Example of a full link ending: &Sum=180¤cy=2&freq=2&step=2 (a monthly donation of 180 US dollars).
Where are the donation buttons? (Israeli charities)
Israeli charities also see a Donation Buttons section with ready-made button images, in English and in Hebrew. Save the image you want and place it on your website or in your emails. Then link the image to your donation form link.
Common questions
Can I change the design of this form? No. The instant form is ready to use as it is. For your own design, create a MYSITE form. See What types of donation forms do you offer?.
Are there more parameters? Yes. See Advanced Donation Form Integration and Features and Source tracking using custom fields.
Can I show the form inside my website? Yes. See Donation Form — Embedding Guide.
I added the same parameter twice by typing it. Remove the extra copy from the link box before you copy it. Add to URL never adds a parameter that is already in the link.
