With Crowded, you can collect payments for your organization in 2 ways:
The good news is that you don’t need to pick just one. Create unlimited collection links of either type for your organization, and watch the payments roll in!
For Fixed Amount collections only!
Enter the amount you would like each person to pay. If you would like payers to cover the collection processing fees, click on the checkbox below the amount field.
This name will allow you to identify the purpose or event that you are collecting payments for.
Tip: Be sure to choose a clear and descriptive name that will be easily recognizable to your payers.
Give payers context to your fundraiser, an overview of your organization, or add a personal note. Skip this step if you’re not interested in adding a description.
Attach an image to give a visual to your payment page – pictures are worth a thousand words! We recommend that the image has a ratio is 16:9, is a JPG or PNG, and is under 10 MB. This is also optional, skip if not desired and add later.
Now you’re ready to share your collection link with your contacts 🎉
Here are a few ways to share your collection link:
You can copy the generated collection link and paste it into your preferred communication channel, such as email, messaging apps, or social media.
If you’ve uploaded member lists as contacts to Crowded, you can use our built-in email feature to send the link to your payers. See here for a guide to uploading contacts.
Tip: If you only want to send to a certain subsection of your group, use tags to organize your contacts, and only send to tagged contacts.
Share your collection link with a QR code. Download or screenshot the QR code and share with your payers.
Tip: Place the QR code on a printed poster or card to allow sharing of your link offline
That’s it! You have successfully created your Crowded collection link.
Now you can easily collect payments from your community online 💸
