Set up a sponsor match promotion (or simply highlight a sponsor) on any of our platforms.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

NOTE: This article refers to a fully customizable banner only available to organizations. For help with the personal banner (your user name and personal message endorsing your campaign), click here.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

The first thing to note is: that you do not HAVE to use this feature to highlight sponsors. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can use the available banner for whatever you like \u2013 many organizations use it to send visitors to another campaign they are running, which may apply to a different subset of people. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For example, if you were running separate campaigns for Canadian and US supporters, you would want to ensure the right visitors are on the right campaign. Updating your banner is a good way to do that, as this banner will be the first thing they see. You just have to skip the \u2018Matching\u2019 part of the instructions below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Part 1: Where does the sponsor match appear?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Here are some helpful tips:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Sponsor name \u2013 <\/strong>this will appear in public places. If your sponsor wants to remain anonymous, you can put something like \u201cOur generous sponsor.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Promotion name \u2013 <\/strong>an internal identifier; it won\u2019t be public-facing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    <\/div>\n\n\n\n

    STEP 4 \u2013 Format the banner\u2019s \u2018Appearance.\u2019<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
    <\/div>\n\n\n\n
    \"Screenshot<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
    <\/div>\n\n\n\n

    Here are some helpful tips:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Sponsor panel content \u2013 <\/strong>this is the \u2018front\u2019 of the banner, what visitors will see immediately when landing on your campaign.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Expanded content (optional) \u2013 <\/strong>Have a lot to say but don\u2019t want to overdo it on the front? This will put a \u2018More\u2019 option on your banner and \u2018flip\u2019 it around to show the \u2018back\u2019 for extra info.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Note: <\/strong>This is the same editor as for your campaign story. Click here<\/a> for a guide on formatting with this editor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    <\/div>\n\n\n\n

    STEP 5 (optional) \u2013 Set up your Matching parameters.<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

    <\/div>\n\n\n\n

    Here are some helpful tips:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Fixed amount \u2013 <\/strong>Every donation triggers a specific fixed amount to be added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Ratio \u2013 <\/strong>Donations are matched using a specified ratio of the original contribution. For example, 1:1 means a $50 donation will be matched with another $50 (for $100 total). 0.5 means a $50 donation will be matched with another $25 (for $75 total). The most popular is 1:1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Total budget<\/strong> \u2013 What is the cap of your sponsorship (if applicable)? I.e., what is the maximum amount TOTAL that they will give you?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Campaign budget \u2013 <\/strong>Limits what a campaign receives. For example, if your sponsor is contributing $10,000 total, and you have two campaigns to apply it to, you can set this at $5,000. If you do NOT specify, the platform will apply matching on a first-come-first-serve basis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    *NOTE regarding sub-campaigns:<\/strong> if you have sub-campaigns, the amount you budget on the main campaign will apply collectively to that campaign and all of its sub-campaigns on a first-come-first-serve basis (e.g. if your whole budget is $5000 and someone donates $5000 to one sub-campaign, that will use the whole budget). If you would like the budget to be spread equally among all sub-campaigns, you must create a promotion for EACH sub-campaign with the same budget.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Minimum contribution \u2013 <\/strong>Do you only want the matching to apply to certain levels of contributions? For example, only contributions of $20 or more will be matched? Set that here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    <\/div>\n\n\n\n

    STEP 6 \u2013 SAVE!!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
