How Does a Donation Page Differ from a Crowdfunding Fundraiser?
RallyUp offers two convenient options for fundraising: a donation page and a crowdfunding experience. These two separate entities have unique features and can be used for different purposes. While donation pages and crowdfunding experiences allow you to accept donations to benefit your organization, a crowdfunding experience has many more features than a donation page.
