Issue 2

Hello Soapbox Engage partners!

February went by so fast, I feel like I blinked and it was gone. As we head into March, I’m looking forward to the seasons changing here on the East Coast. Every extra hour of daylight we get feels like liquid sunshine running through my veins, giving me more energy.

Like the changing of seasons, we have some changes of our own happening over here at Soapbox Engage! With mission in mind, we strive to continue moving forward, growing, and improving the tools we offer to the nonprofit community.

I’ve had the opportunity to connect with many of you and I’m excited to continue these conversations and be a channel where your recommendations and feedback are heard and prioritized in product development and services. As this month progresses, please reach out if you have any questions, comments, ideas, or feedback for our team. I’m here and ready to listen!

Below are some of our most recent product updates, some big (huge, major, don’t wanna miss it) and some small (but mighty). Give ‘em a read and let me know if you have any questions!

You can receive the Partner Newsletter each month by subscribing today!

Product Updates

The Donations App Integrates with Microsoft’s Fundraising and Engagement

Organizations will be getting ready to tackle a big project when starting with Microsoft’s Fundraising & Engagement. They’ll want an easy solution that natively works with it out of the box. They'll want it to be flexible, robust, and look gorgeous. Plus, they’ll want the fundraising data collected from campaign fundraising, peer-to-peer fundraising, team fundraising, and more to go right into F&E in real-time. No syncing, no fuss! *In walks the Donations app* This integration is the first of its kind and offers partners, and their clients, the opportunity to be at the forefront of leveraging the Microsoft ecosystem when managing nonprofit donations and data. To learn more, register for our webinar on Thursday, March 25, 2021 at 3:00PM - 3:45PM EST.

Additional Email Domains Accepted when Submitting Forms and Registrations

There are tons of new top-level domains hitting the market every year. The traditional .com and .org are scooting over to make room for .health, .world, .community, and hundreds more. In order to align with this ever-growing diversity, Soapbox Engage now allows all valid top-level domains to be accepted as valid contact information when registering for an event, filling out a form, or purchasing an item. No penguin left behind!

Administrators Can Set Items to Display Based on User Level

Our Portals feature has endless capabilities. It offers users a personalized experience when visiting an organization's website that can increase donations, event registrations, memberships, and more. With a robust update to our user integration tool, administrators can now set any menu item, page, login, registration, or link to be displayed only to people of a specific user level. This powerful hierarchy can change the way an organization presents information to their audience, creating more varied opportunities for supporters.
