Frequently Asked Questions

Can I create a custom keyword using Donorbox Text-to-Give?

Using Donorbox, you can create a custom keyword for your text-to-donate campaign. Choose a unique and catchy word that represents your cause, campaign, and branding. Make sure it is also easily memorable for your donors!

What is the most effective way to request text donations?

Since almost everyone has a smartphone, text donations have become one of the best ways to solicit charitable contributions. Unlike phone calls, most people open their texts. A short and catchy text-to-donate solicitation will catch their attention and make it easier for them to support their favorite cause.

You can also simply display your text-to-donate information on viewers’ television screens during media appearances. Or, put it up on the screens in your lobby at your next event!

Text donation campaigns connected to your other events or campaigns have the most success. Text-to-donate should be seen as one of many ways to make a donation, allowing donors to choose the best way for them to give.

Is text-to-donate different from text-to-give?

Many people may assume text-to-give and text-to-donate are the same, but there are significant differences that can affect your campaign. Technically, text-to-give has set donation amounts, requires donors to send a short code to an assigned number, and charges the donors’ phone carrier.

Text-to-donate, on the other hand, is simpler for the donor and offers more opportunities to build donor relationships. Text-to-donate provides a link to your organization’s campaign page and allows donors to give any amount. Text-to-donate also makes it simpler for nonprofits to collect recurring donations.

Donorbox Text-to-Give follows the text-to-donate method of giving via text.
