Send a Text to Unpaid Users Post Fundraiser

At the conclusion of checkout or the next day, send a text to users with a remaining balance. Choose to include or exclude users whose balance is marked as pledged. Recipients are linked to their Pay page to secure the balance on a credit card of choice.

Best Practice: Ensure all users are marked as paid in the campaign.  We recommend reviewing and closing all unpaid accounts no later than 1 week post-event, including those paid by check or cash.  This prevents delayed payments processing and provides a timeline for Accounting to review final revenue numbers. 

 

Note: Confirm Self Checkout is set to Yes from Dashboard > Payments Container > Settings before sending the text.
