Understand Your Donors to Elevate Your Fundraising
What would you do if your top 5 donors stopped giving to you? For many of our clients, this would be disastrous. The good news is that new donors are out there (many are hiding in your donor database), ready to give to your organization. But you have to be able to find them – and be strategic about how you engage them. You need to identify the best prospects by gift type, in order to focus your efforts on the most strategic targets. Using analytics can help you better understand the motivation behind your donors and target them with the right message at the right time. Now is the time to start. In this webinar series, we will focus on how to prevent donor fatigue, while improving donor retention.
This series will focus on topics and techniques for your organization to work smarter, not harder and elevate your fundraising efforts with Blackbaud Target Analytics.

Daily Disbursements
Disbursements to your account will be made every business day, excluding bank holidays.
More details, including a sample disbursement calendar, are located in the Disbursement Information tab under General Settings from within the Blackbaud Merchant Services Web Portal.
As a reminder, Blackbaud will both deposit funds and debit your bank account for the full amount of any negative or debit balances (including any chargebacks and reversals). Failure of an attempted debit will place all payouts on hold so be sure your bank allows both deposits and debits from these merchant ACH IDs.

Using Credit Card Updater, you can minimize disruptions in monthly revenue. Your first updates will be received in 6-8 weeks, following our security and registration processes, and monthly thereafter.
