Matching lets you show supporters how their gift will be matched. The campaign settings include a match ratio and a short description that explains the match.
Enabling matching
Go to Campaigns and open the campaign.
On the Checkout tab, open Matching.
Turn on Matching.
Enter the Match ratio and description.
Click Save.
Understanding the match ratio
The value entered in Match ratio is the ratio of the match to the supporter’s gift:
Enter 1 for a 1:1 match.
Enter 2 for a 2:1 match.
For a 1:1 match, the supporter’s gift plus the match produces a total impact of twice the gift. For example, a gift of 50 plus a match of 50 represents 100 in total impact. The checkout displays this as a ×2 match.
Adding a match description
Use Description to explain the match, such as naming the matching supporter or sponsor. The field allows up to 80 characters.
Checking the checkout and progress
After saving, open the campaign’s Checkout link. Check that the displayed match and description reflect your intended offer.
