Add a crowdfunding section to your Bio Site so fans can support you and help you reach your goals.
Contributing toward a specific goal makes giving feel more meaningful for your fans.
Crowdfunding works by connecting your Bio Site to your Stripe account, then adding a section to your Bio Site for each goal you create.
Add a crowdfunding section
Before you begin
To add crowdfunding to your Bio Site, you’ll need to connect a payment processor to your Bio Site.
Add a crowdfunding section
To add a crowdfunding section to your Bio Site:
- While editing your Bio Site, tap Sections.
- Tap Crowdfunding.
- In the Payment field, select Stripe or PayPal.
- Add a title.
- Optional: Add an image. You can also update the wording of the Donate button to something else.
- Set your goal, and add suggested donations in the Suggested donation amounts section. Fans can donate one of these preset amounts, or choose a custom amount.
- Tap the arrow at the bottom-left corner of your screen.
How fans donate
When fans visit your Bio Site, they’ll be shown the goal you’ve created, how close you are to reaching your goal, how many people have already donated, and a donate button.
When they tap Donate, they can choose one of your preset amounts, or tap Custom to donate a custom amount, then tap Continue to reach the Stripe checkout screen and complete their donation.
Review your donations
You can review incoming donations by navigating to the Bio Sites Payments tab. From the app home screen, tap Bio Site, then tap Payments.
When you reach a goal
When you reach or pass a crowdfunding goal, Unfold will notify you to update or remove the goal. You can tap Update to raise the goal amount, or Remove to delete the goal. You can always add another crowdfunding section to your Bio Site.
