Adding Giving Options (Perks)

📩 To set up perks, contact us via live chat or email: support@causematch.com


Match My Gift (MMG) Feature

Match My Gift adds a competitive, social element to the fundraising process by letting donors match another donor’s gift.

How it works:

  • A donor clicks the MMG button on another donor's tile.

  • They are redirected to a checkout screen with the donation amount pre-filled.

  • After donating, they receive the usual thank you email, and:

    • The original donor’s tile displays a x1 badge near the trophy icon, indicating their donation was matched.

    • The original donor also gets an email notification saying their donation was matched.

This feature boosts donor engagement and fosters a sense of community participation.

After completing a donation, each donor receives a Personal Fundraising Link they can share with friends, family, or their network.

  • This link appears on the Thank You page and is included in the Thank You email via a merge tag.

  • Donations made through the link are credited to the original donor.

  • If both MMG and Personal Fundraising Link are enabled, the donor’s tile will show a combined icon representing both interactions.
