How to accept gifts through mobile at year-end or anytime

It’s estimated nearly one third of annual giving occurs in December and 12% of all giving happens in the last three days of the year.
If your association or organization operates fiscally on the calendar year, this is not news. You know already — ’tis the season for last-minute financial gifts.
Sending post cards, writing emails and making phone calls are all important in helping you reach your year-end goals. And no doubt, you’ve been at those efforts for a few weeks (or months) by now.
As the clock ticks down to the new year, don’t forget your quickest method to reaching your constituency and accepting financial gifts is through your MobileUp app.
