Over the past few months, Rapidata has been asked to create additional direct debit web pages for specific standalone campaigns, reactivation asks, and for separating membership, lottery or donations payments. These unique web pages provide the added benefit of having separate messaging and reporting that is trackable and measurable.

Charities are failing to fully utilise their websites to encourage regular giving, according to the results of an Online Giving Survey1 released today by Rapidata Services Plc.

Many of our clients are providing assistance and relief to the people of Haiti following the earthquake on the 12th January.
The web is an important direct response channel. The Burma Cyclone Appeal saw 42% of donations come through online*. Online means the money gets to the charity quicker so they can use the money immediately.
If your charity is involved in fundraising for the Haiti relief effort, we are on call to support you in your emergency donation appeals during this time.
