Advanced Fundraising Software

Advanced fundraising software is used by nonprofits and organizations to manage donation campaigns, track donor activity, automate follow-up, and monitor fundraising performance. It supports online donation collection, recurring giving, reporting, and workflow automation in a centralized system. With Jotform, fundraising teams can build donation forms, route submissions through workflows, and track campaign results in one place.

Build a fundraising system that matches your campaign strategy

Fundraising programs vary by organization. Some focus on annual giving, while others manage capital campaigns, peer-to-peer fundraising, event-based giving, or recurring donor programs. You can start from a fundraising template, build from scratch, or generate a form with a prompt, then customize donation tiers, fund designations, and follow-up workflows to match your strategy.

Benefits

Benefits of using Jotform as advanced fundraising software

Collect online donations with payment integrations

Fundraising forms can include secure payment integrations that allow donors to give via supported gateways. Donation amounts, custom contribution fields, and payment confirmation emails can be configured directly within the form builder.

Support recurring donations and pledges

Recurring giving is central to sustainable fundraising. Donation forms can include subscription-style recurring payments so that monthly or quarterly payments are processed automatically and tracked in the system.

Organize donors and campaigns in one database

All donation submissions can be stored in Jotform Tables, which provides a centralized view for managing donors, campaign names, gift amounts, and dates. Teams can filter records by campaign or donor segment and export reports as needed.

Automate donor follow-up with Jotform Workflows

Advanced fundraising often requires structured follow-up. With Jotform Workflows, organizations can automate thank-you emails, assign outreach tasks to staff, trigger notifications for large donations, or escalate high-value donor activity for review.

Track donor engagement across multiple forms with Jotform Apps

Organizations often run multiple campaigns at once. Jotform Apps allows teams to combine multiple donation forms, event registrations, and volunteer forms into a single shared interface for easier access and management.

Testimonials

What our users say about Jotform

Jotform has been a great tool for our fundraising and marketing department. As a nonprofit leader, I am always looking for tools that are easy to use, priced well, and capable of performing more than one function or "thing". We started using Jotform to allow our supporters a place to request marketing materials for a fundraising walk, but we quickly learned we could use this platform for so much more.

What is advanced fundraising software?

Advanced fundraising software is a system for managing complex fundraising programs, including online donations, recurring giving, campaign tracking, and donor engagement workflows. It centralizes donation records and supports reporting, automation, and structured follow-up processes.

How does advanced fundraising software work?

Donations are collected through secure online forms with payment processing. Each contribution is stored as a structured record, where it can be filtered, segmented, reviewed, and exported for reporting and campaign analysis.

Can advanced fundraising software support recurring donations?

Yes. Recurring payment options allow donors to set up scheduled monthly or quarterly contributions. These recurring gifts are automatically processed and recorded in the centralized tracking system.

Can it manage multiple fundraising campaigns at once?

Yes. Advanced fundraising software can organize donations by campaign name, event, fund, or appeal. Records can be filtered and grouped in a centralized table to track performance across multiple initiatives.

Can donor history be tracked over time?

Yes. Each donation submission is stored as a record, allowing organizations to review giving history by donor name, date range, or campaign. This helps track long-term donor engagement and contribution patterns.

Can donors be segmented by campaign or contribution level?

Yes. Donation records can be filtered and segmented based on fields such as campaign name, donation amount, frequency, or donor type. This supports targeted follow-up and campaign reporting.
