Mobile donation page experienceWhat does this look like on mobile?
What are the best practices for us?
Make it “thumb friendly”
Larger buttons
The fewer fields, the better
Limit the amount of text
Plenty of space between fields
If your supporter is donating via mobile device, customize follow up communication

Food Network: Holiday 20127 times the amount of money raised from ads linking to mobile-friendly donation page vs. text to give.
How’d we do?
Text To Give: $12,490 raised from 1,249 gifts
Links Driving to Mobile-friendly page: $88,697 raised from 1,247gifts
Other benefits:

About 30% of text to give donations never make it through
We don’t have to wait 3 months for the gifts to come in
What was the promotion? In simplest terms:
This…
vs. This.
