Email Confirmations

After someone completes an online transaction, such as a donation or registration, the form automatically sends them a confirmation email. The email reassures the person that they successfully submitted the form, and can also help your organization build a relationship with them.

As you design your confirmation message, consider these recommendations.

  • Focus the content on the details of the transaction.

  • Thank the person for their interest in your mission.

  • Highlight next steps or pertinent information, such as when to arrive at an event.

  • Offer ways to keep in touch, such as links to opt in to receive additional communication.

  • Suggest other ways to get involved.

Note: To provide someone with transactional details for tax-purposes, or to resend a confirmation email, send a receipt. For more information, see Receipt Manager.
