The Participant Fundraising Experience in Peer-to-Peer Campaigns

After registering for a Peer-to-Peer fundraising event in FundEasy, participants are automatically invited to begin fundraising on behalf of the organization. The experience is designed to be immediate, simple, and accessible—so participants can move from registration to active fundraising without friction or additional setup steps.

There are two places where a registrant is prompted to Create their Fundraiser.

• First, the participant is prompted in the Registration Success page. This is a great time to prompt the user because they are already engaged.

• If the participant declines to create their fundraiser at that time, there is another opportunity to prompt them in their Registration Confirmation email.

If your organization wants to turn off either one of these prompts, you may do so in the Fundraising Setup page (see https://helpcenter.fundeasy.com/articles/4990475-fundraising-setup#15zbi5da0me).

Getting Started After Registration

Once a participant completes event registration, they will be prompted on the confirmation page to immediately create their fundraiser.

Additionally, FundEasy sends a confirmation email that includes a secure magic link. This link is the starting point for their fundraising experience. It gives them direct access to create and manage their personal fundraising page without requiring account creation, passwords, or additional login steps.

By using magic links instead of traditional accounts, FundEasy removes common barriers that often prevent participants from engaging further after registration. Participants can begin fundraising as soon as they are ready, with no extra setup required.

Creating a Fundraising Page

When a participant opens their magic link, they are guided through a simple setup flow to create their personal fundraising page. This process is intentionally lightweight and focused on helping them get started quickly.

Participants can personalize their page with basic details such as their name, photo or avatar, and a short story about why they are participating. This helps them share a more authentic connection with potential donors while keeping the setup process fast and easy.

Once published, their fundraising page is immediately active and ready to share.

Managing and Editing the Page

Participants can return to their fundraising page at any time using the same magic link sent via email. This link allows them to both view and edit their page without needing to remember a password or maintain an account.

From there, they can update their story, adjust their details, and continue sharing their page as their fundraising progresses. This flexibility helps participants stay engaged throughout the lifecycle of the event.

Sharing and Fundraising

After their page is created, participants are encouraged to share it with their personal networks through email, messaging, or social media. Each share helps extend the reach of the campaign beyond the organization’s direct audience, turning participants into active fundraising advocates.

As donations come in, participants can track progress toward their personal fundraising goal and receive notifications when supporters contribute. This real-time visibility helps maintain momentum and encourages continued engagement.

A Seamless Extension of the Event Experience

Because Peer-to-Peer fundraising in FundEasy is fully integrated into the event experience, participants move naturally from registration into fundraising without switching systems or creating separate accounts. Their registration, fundraising page, and donation activity are all connected within a single platform.

This unified experience ensures participants can focus on what matters most—sharing their story, engaging their networks, and helping raise support for the organization’s mission.
