When teams are enabled on a peer-to-peer fundraising campaign, participants can join or create teams, allowing for collective fundraising efforts. The funds team members raise will benefit their individual fundraising pages, but also contribute to their team's fundraising total. Every P2P campaign on Pledge It supports the option for teams.
Steps
Visit your campaign’s Dashboard.
Select the Settings option from the left sidebar menu.
Select Team Options from the Settings menu.
Indicate if teams should be Off, Allowed, or Required on your campaign.
If teams are Allowed or Required: Select if participants should have the option to create a team during registration or if they can only join an existing team.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can participants skip joining or creating a team?
If teams are set as Allowed, participants will see the option to skip creating or joining a team during the registration process. If teams are Required, every participant on your campaign will end up on a team.
Do participants have to create a fundraising page to be able to join a team?
No. Pledge It supports non-fundraising participants joining teams. If fundraising is optional on your campaign, non-fundraising participants will be listed as team members, but will not have full fundraising pages to collect donations. They will receive messages sent by the team captain (if they provide an email at registration) and they can also share their team’s fundraising page.
