With Christmas just around the corner, we decided to give two gifts away early...
Building on our solution that offers a straight forward way for donors to support a charity through the simple act of purchasing a bespoke personalised card or e-card. Our latest new features now allow your donors to make the personal even more personal!
Making the personal even more personal!
Sending a personalised card or e-card to a loved one creates a memory - imagine what memories could be created by attaching your own video or audio message to that card...
Well, now with Making A Difference Cards your supporters can.
Expanding our solution to be truly unique and pushing card and e-card innovation further - we now offer donors the ability to upload a personal message that is stored securely using Amazon AWS storage. Their card is then delivered ( by post or email ) with a shortened URL for ease of typing and a QR code to scan on their mobile or tablet - taking them directly to their message.
With the ability to view or listen to the message within our site, or download it for prosperity we think this is a "magical" experience and the recipient is also presented with a full 3D rendition of the personalised card they received, as the wrapping to the gift - opening up a way to "be there when you can't be there" and sending a personal message with the card to mark the occasion.
Our site on your site...
Charities using our system can now request the facility to embed their charity's personal portal directly into their website - and it's no harder than adding a Google Analytics tag. We had been thinking about the best way to encourage a greater amount of donations and the obvious answer was to create a way to simplify the donor's experience.
As from today, our charity partners can have a fully functional card and e-card solution directly within their own website, with minimal branding - we provide a small 'powered by...' footer. Other than that their visitors can now personalise, buy and donate via our greetings cards without leaving the site. One hundred percent of our site's functionality is provided, for free.
Not forgetting...
This year we have been extremely busy - adding more card designs over an increasing range of categories, taking our selection of cards to over 900 and based on customer feedback, we introduced a whole new concept for e-cards - making them truly personalised cards, no different to the ones that would pop through your letterbox.
And, we added the first revision of our digital dashboard where you can log in and view details of donations received, view monthly reports and also download HMRC compliant ODS files for filing Gift Aid claims.. This data is available in realtime to ensure our commitment to full transparency with our charity partners.
Making A Difference Cards - offers a completely transparent solution for free to any UK charity, large or small. And is proud to have been a member of the Fundraising Regulator since its launch.
