ActBlue Features
Tandem Fundraising
This feature addresses the problem of fragmented fundraising by allowing organizations to host joint contribution forms. Donors can split a single gift among multiple recipients, fostering collaboration across different causes without requiring separate transactions. This encourages larger collective movements and unified outreach.
Smart Options
To solve the issue of "ask fatigue," this tool uses data-driven logic to suggest personalized donation amounts to supporters. By presenting recurring options that are slightly lower than one-time gifts, it increases the likelihood of long-term commitments. This creates a predictable budget.
Automatic Traffic Allocation
This feature optimizes campaigns by automatically directing more website traffic to the highest-performing version of a contribution form. It removes the guesswork from digital strategy by ensuring that the most effective messaging reaches the majority of potential supporters. This maximizes total revenue.
Express Lane
This tool allows administrators to send emails containing unique links that enable supporters to donate with a single click. By bypassing the traditional form-filling process, it drastically reduces the time between a donor's intent and their completed contribution. This secures immediate results.
Compliance Management
The platform solves the administrative burden of regulatory reporting by automatically itemizing and tracking every individual contribution. Organizations can export comprehensive data files that are pre-formatted for federal or state compliance filings. This ensures transparency and saves significant time for finance teams.
