Support KB article: CONNECT: Third Party Integration
Announcement:
Online events and fundraisers have never been more important for nonprofits.
To support them, Click & Pledge has integrated with Zoom's API enabling CONNECT donation forms to register donors for Zoom webinars and meetings. This will transform Zoom events into online fundraising events for nonprofit organizations.
Requirements:
This integration requires the use of Zoom's API which is available with their paid account offerings. Refer to Zoom's pricing page: https://zoom.us/pricing.
Salesforce users must first upgrade to the latest beta release which includes compatibility with the Zoom Integration. Our development team has worked very hard to introduce this new capability and can assist you with Salesforce upgrades here.
4 Step Set-up Process
- Add Zoom as a 3rd party integration to your Click & Pledge account. (This is a one-time action).
- Set up a Zoom meeting/webinar.
- Assign your Zoom meeting or webinar to a CONNECT campaign.
- Have your patrons make payments through the CONNECT campaign form and they will automatically be registered for the assigned Zoom meeting or webinar.
Click & Pledge is looking forward to contributing to a solution for socially distant fundraising events and classes. There may be lasting changes in donor behavior for years to come and it is vital to be prepared for new challenges. Although this change has been rapid and unpredictable, the nonprofit community is resilient and will adjust to follow their missions.
