About the OpenFundraise integration

A donation arrives during a campaign, often when the fundraising team is focused on thanking supporters and reporting progress. OpenFundraise records donations, recurring gifts and supporter activity, but a personal follow-up can still be delayed. Its triggers give nonprofits a way to send a timely SMS through Mobile Message when important supporter activity occurs.

Use New Donation to acknowledge a completed gift, or New Recurring Donation to welcome a continuing supporter. New or Updated Supporter can also send a message when a supporter is created or has new donation activity. These texts can thank the donor, confirm that the contribution was received or point them towards the next step in your supporter experience.

You can also use Mobile Message’s Add Supporter Note action when an inbound SMS or delivery event should be recorded internally in OpenFundraise. That action adds a CRM note after activity in another app. Each workflow is one-directional and runs through Zapier, so you choose the trigger, action and fields. Both accounts are required, with no custom code.
Categories:

A Zapier account and subscription is required for this integration. Please view Zapier's pricing page for further information.

OpenFundraise + SMS: common questions

Can OpenFundraise text donors after a donation?

Yes. New Donation can trigger Mobile Message’s Send SMS action. You can thank the donor or confirm the completed contribution using the details supplied by OpenFundraise.

Can recurring donors receive a different SMS?

Yes. New Recurring Donation is a separate trigger, so you can create a message that welcomes continuing support rather than using the wording for a single donation.

How do I connect OpenFundraise supporter activity to SMS?

Select an OpenFundraise trigger or Mobile Message inbound event in Zapier, add the matching action, map fields and test the Zap. Both accounts and Zapier are required, with no code.
