We’ve introduced several additions to Sponsorships to help you streamline sponsor management, reduce manual coordination, and simplify post-event workflows from registration through reconciliation.

Sponsors selecting Pay Later now automatically receive a branded invoice with event details, sponsorship selections, and payment instructions.

This makes it easier to collect offline payments and simplifies sponsor billing.

Sponsors now review and accept Terms & Conditions during checkout.

This ensures expectations are clearly communicated upfront and helps reduce post-registration confusion.

Admins can configure Fair Market Value (FMV) for sponsorship tiers and send tax-ready acknowledgment emails after the event.

This helps sponsors understand their tax-deductible portion and supports compliance needs.

New exports make it easier to reconcile sponsorships and share updates internally.

Reports now include sponsorship details, payments, guest information, and tax-related breakdowns.

Sponsors can upload logos, ads, and other deliverables directly through their portal.

Admins can configure required assets, track submissions, and send reminders, reducing back-and-forth emails.

Sponsors can now purchase multiple sponsorship tiers and optional add-ons like extra tickets or perks.

This provides more flexibility for sponsors and opens up additional revenue opportunities.

Configure sales tax at the event level and automatically apply it to sponsorship purchases.

Sponsors see a clear tax breakdown during checkout and on invoices.

Prevent duplicate sponsorship registrations by detecting existing in-progress entries and guiding sponsors back to their original registration.

Admins can resend confirmation emails to sponsors, making it easy to recover lost links and reduce friction.

Admins can delete incorrect or cancelled sponsorship registrations, ensuring cleaner records and accurate reporting.

These enhancements help you:

🚀 These updates are now live and available to help you manage sponsorships more efficiently end-to-end.

Admins now have more control over mentorship registration, profile data, and member communication—making it easier to tailor programs to your needs and reach people where they are.

💡 Why This Matters

Custom mentorship programs require flexibility. You want mentors and mentees to sign up smoothly without friction, collect the profile info that matters to your program, and send targeted messages to drive engagement. These updates make all of that possible without the manual workarounds.

✨ What's New

Share different links with mentors and mentees. When they register, their role is pre-selected—no extra steps. They can still change it later if needed.

Add custom fields to your sign-up form (industry, chapter, job title, etc.). Data automatically syncs between mentorship forms and member profiles, so alumni don't have to re-enter info.

Know exactly who submitted each form. No more "unidentified" submissions.

Send email or SMS directly from mentorship to specific groups—all members, just mentors, just mentees, or people with incomplete registrations. Perfect for reminders and nudges.

Easily target the right audience for outreach with clear groups: All Members, Mentors, Mentees, and Incomplete Registrations.

We’ve upgraded how offline gifts marked as “Matching Gifts” appear across your giving experiences.

Per-page visibility toggle: You can now choose, per giving page, whether gifts flagged as Matching Gifts should be included in leaderboards, heatmaps, and gift/donor counts.

Consistent display across views: When enabled, Matching Gifts are reflected consistently anywhere those totals and lists are shown (including public-facing donor/leaderboard views and reporting-style displays powered by search).

The new setting is OFF by default, so Matching Gifts remain excluded from these displays unless you explicitly turn it on.

Matching Gift amounts are not added to other challenges/campaigns totals (i.e., enabling Matching Gift visibility only affects page-level displays like leaderboards/heatmaps/counts—it does not roll Matching Gift dollars into other campaign/challenge calculations).

When a popular sub-event fills up, interested attendees no longer hit a dead end. With , attendees can join a queue when their preferred sub-event reaches capacity and get notified automatically when a spot opens up.

Popular sessions fill up fast and until now, that meant turning people away. Sub-Event Waitlist gives your attendees a path forward and gives your team the tools to manage overflow without the spreadsheet juggling. Whether you want full automation or hands-on control, the waitlist adapts to how you work.

Enable waitlisting on individual sub-events so attendees can join a queue instead of being turned away when capacity is reached.

Choose mode to let the system handle notifications hands-free, or mode for full control over who gets offered a spot and when.

When a spot opens, the next eligible attendee receives an email with a time-limited registration link. If they don't respond in time, the system moves to the next person in line.

View and manage all waitlisted registrations from a dedicated Waitlist tab filter by status

search by name or email, and track queue positions at a glance.

In Manual mode, reorder the queue or skip ahead to notify specific attendees.

For sub-events with multiple ticket types, the waitlist operates per-ticket, so notifications go to the right people for the right ticket.

Download a comprehensive Excel report of all waitlist activity across sub-events, including guest details, statuses, and ticket info.

To match the spot terminology introduced by waitlist, the 'book' button on sub-event and ticket booking page has been changed to 'book spot'

We've introduced Joint Gift Support, making it easy for you to associate multiple donors with a single transaction — perfect for couples, families, or group contributions — without splitting the gift amount or inflating donor records.

What's New?

Joint Donor Attribution

Add Donor 2, Donor 3, and beyond to any gift — all credited to the same transaction. Each named donor appears wherever gifts are displayed, from leaderboards to tickers, while the gift amount is counted only once toward campaign totals.

Ideal for couples, families, or any group giving together under a single check or transaction.

Admin-Side Flexibility

Joint donors can be added when creating or editing a gift — no changes needed to donor-facing forms. Admins stay in full control of how joint contributions are recorded and attributed.

Accurate Donor Counts, Always

Each named joint donor counts as a unique donor toward campaign totals, donor counts, and match/challenge calculations — so your numbers reflect reality without duplicate gift amounts skewing your financials.

Seamless RENXT Sync

Joint gifts sync cleanly: the primary donor receives the main gift record, and joint donors receive soft credits — keeping your Raiser's Edge NXT data accurate and audit-ready.

Why It Matters

Whether it's a couple writing a single check or a family pooling contributions, Joint Gift Support ensures every donor gets the recognition they deserve — and your campaign data stays clean.

Email lists through excel will now be validated before uploading. The system checks for incorrect IDs, mismatched records, and potential duplicates—showing you exactly what will happen before any data is added or updated.

This helps prevent:

You can review, fix, or proceed with full visibility during upload. **Learn more**

You can now run auctions directly within Almabase Events - without relying on spreadsheets, bid sheets, or manual payment follow-ups.

Auctions are built for advancement teams running galas, giving events, and hybrid fundraisers, and bring setup, bidding, and checkout into one connected experience.

Auctions are now part of your Almabase fundraising toolkit within Events.

On the admin side, auctions are being organized more clearly under fundraising options, making them easier to discover and configure alongside other fundraising features. You’ll be able to manage auction setup, timing, payment settings, and item creation in a more structured way.

On the bidder side, supporters get a mobile-first experience with:

This rollout also sets the foundation for more complete payment workflows, including flexible payment windows, saved cards, auto-charge support, sales tax handling, and Buy Now pricing for select items.

This release focuses on two things:

You’ll see a cleaner setup experience in Events, a dedicated place to manage auction items, and a stronger foundation for future auction reporting and payment controls.

Auctions can drive significant fundraising, but they often create a lot of manual work.

With Almabase Auctions, your team can reduce admin overhead, keep bidders engaged, and move toward faster, more reliable payment collection - all within the same platform you already use for events.

In other words, Almabase Events can now support fundraising not just through registrations and appeals, but through auctions too.

Admins can now configure a giving page to display a single donation split across multiple funds as individual gifts — one per fund — on the donor's end. Gift counts on thermometers and everywhere across the campaign will reflect the total number of fund splits, not just the number of transactions.

When a donor gives to multiple funds in a single transaction, every contribution deserves its moment! 🙌 Previously, a split gift counted as just one gift, no matter how many funds it supported. Now, each fund-level contribution is visible and counted — so donors feel the full weight of their generosity recognised.

This is controlled per giving page. Head to the giving page settings, open Campaign Settings, and toggle on "Show each fund donation as a separate gift". ✅

You can now choose whether payment gateway charges are factored into your fundraising goal progress, giving you more accurate visibility into the actual funds raised for your cause.

A new toggle is available on Competitive and Crowdfunding giving pages that lets admins exclude payment gateway (PG) charges from the thermometer and goal calculations.

When enabled, only the net amount (after processing fees) counts toward your goal. So your progress bar reflects what truly goes to your organization.

We’ve launched a purpose-built Sponsorship Registration workflow designed for organizations to streamline sponsor onboarding, payments, and guest management—without relying on emails, spreadsheets, or manual coordination.

Gone are the days of juggling spreadsheets, chasing down guest names over email, or waiting on checks. Now, sponsors move through a structured, self-service flow, and admins get full visibility and control—with zero back-and-forth.
