The future of fundraising is here …. We’re thrilled to announce our partnership with Zoom!

Since becoming a top 5 finalist in the 2020 Zoom Whale Watch App Marketplace competition in May, we’ve been hard at work to bring Zoom users a seamless and dynamic way to support the nonprofits and charitable organizations they care about. Today, Zoom announced during its annual user conference the ability to turn any virtual event into a fundraiser.

As Zoom’s new charitable giving partner, Pledgeling will be powering donations through (1) a native integration with Zoom’s new events platform, and (2) Donations by Pledgeling, the first ever donation app on the Zoom App Marketplace.

Both of our new offerings provide all the tools you need to create your very own fundraiser, seamlessly with Zoom, for free. As seen during Zoom CEO Eric Yuan’s keynote and throughout Zoomtopia, our virtual donation overlay engages your Zoom attendees, giving them the ability to make donations live during your event, see amounts donated and participant names in real-time on their screen.

Coming soon: Zoom Native Integration: OnZoom, Zoom’s new event ticketing platform, will give event hosts the ability to add a fundraiser and support one of 2+ million nonprofits in the Pledgeling database. Attendees of OnZoom events will be able to make donations to verified nonprofits before, during, and after the event, directly through OnZoom’s platform. Sign up for our OnZoom event to learn best practices to make your next virtual fundraiser a success.

Donations by Pledgeling App: Via your Pledgeling.com account, you can now install Donations by Pledgeling, the first ever donation experience made for Zoom. Create or add a Zoom meeting or webinar directly from a free Pledgeling fundraiser page. Perfect for non-ticketed events, learn more here.

2020 has physically disconnected us, and yet, in many ways we are more connected than ever. There’s never been a better time to #PledgeToDoGood, brought to you by Pledgeling and Zoom!
