Blue Star Payment Solutions has launched BLUESTARgives, a new platform that connects contributors to nonprofits and schools.
Fundraising solution BLUESTARgives is powered by iGiveHere, a subsidiary of Switch Commerce. This portal will allow nonprofits to increase their donor contributions through branded mobile applications, online donation solutions, and cloud-based giving management.
Blue Star Payment Solutions president Jerry Mooty said: "Blue Star Payment Solutions recognizes that the nonprofit sector is robust, and thus continually seeking ways to integrate donation and fundraising systems to maximize their donations.
"We wanted an offering that could not only decrease the nonprofit’s transaction fees, but also support all their fundraising initiatives. The BLUESTARgives platform accomplishes that."
BLUESTARgives is a free platform that offers those who register the ability to create stand-alone giving pages and run multiple campaigns simultaneously such as Text-to-Pledge campaigns, manage Push and Geo Notifications surrounding those campaigns, send direct messages to donors, and connect via social media channels.
Its additional benefits include automatic generation of tax receipts upon donation, and the capability to build donor lists and reports to interpret donor activity.
