What's New in Blackbaud Verified Network
Blackbaud Verified Network adds new and improved features throughout the year. Below is a list of updates released so far.
Tip: These updates are for your awareness. You don’t need to take action unless we note it in the update.
March 23, 2026 - 1.132.0 release
Updates to bank information entry and submission
We updated the bank detail update experience to better support security requirements and make it easier to complete updates.
When you update your bank details, you’re now prompted to enter your account number each time. The masked account number no longer appears, which shows that this information is required whenever you make a change.
You also get clearer guidance before you submit your update. When you hover over Submit, you see which required fields still need to be completed. This helps you know what to fix before you continue and reduces interruptions during the process.
These updates make expectations clearer and help you complete bank detail updates more smoothly.
Updates to documents accepted for Admin Registration
We updated the documents you can use to verify your identity and role when you register as an admin for a nonprofit organization. Some documents, such as employee badges and paystubs, are no longer accepted.
To see the current list of accepted options, review Documents Accepted for Role Verification and Proof of Identity.
March 9, 2026 - 1.131.0 release
Account deletion requires email confirmation
You can now delete your Blackbaud Verified Network account through a clear, email‑based process. This process helps you understand what happens before your account is removed.
When you select Verify identity and delete account in My account, Manage my account, we send an email to the email address on file that explains what will happen and asks you to confirm the deletion. Your account is not removed until you confirm through the link in the email.
After you confirm, you're automatically signed out of Blackbaud Verified Network. You cannot sign back in to Blackbaud Verified Network unless you create a new account.
Note: This process permanently deletes your Blackbaud Verified Network account. It does not impact your Blackbaud ID account. For details, see Delete Your Account.
Tip: If you're the only admin for your nonprofit, invite another admin before you continue. This helps your organization keep its information up to date.
February 23, 2026 - 1.130.0 release
Bank information validation keeps bank country aligned with nonprofit country
We updated the bank information pages to help nonprofits enter correct bank details. When setting up or editing bank details, we now check that the bank country matches the country where the nonprofit is registered. The Account Country is set to the nonprofit’s registered country and cannot be changed.
This update helps global nonprofits avoid mistakes during setup and gives admins confidence that their banking information is correct.

Quickly identify chapters in My Nonprofits with their unique Registration ID
To help nonprofit administrators distinguish between chapters with similar names, areas like My Nonprofits now display each chapter’s Registration ID below its name and address. Previously, the Registration ID for the parent organization was shown instead.
This change makes it easier to identify specific chapters and reference the correct Registration ID when managing donations or contacting our team.
