Tap to Donate allows staff and volunteers to accept donations on phones or iPads at events. Early-access nonprofits saw average gift sizes rise 24% compared to previous in-person giving tools. The feature is included at no additional cost. The Peer-to-Peer Fundraising product uses an AI coach to help supporters create campaigns, write their stories, and track progress. During early access, the share of fundraisers raising at least one gift nearly doubled.
