Use the same scenario in every demo
One participant, from application to post-trip follow-up.
1. Open applications
Publish the trip and collect participant information through the application. Keep dates, team roles and fundraising goals visible to coordinators.
2. Connect participant fundraising
Give participants their own giving pages and track contributions against individual and trip goals. Donors remain connected to the wider relationship history.
3. Prepare the team
Review documents, tasks, background checks and signatures with deadlines and responsible owners. Keep incomplete requirements visible before departure.
4. Close the trip and continue the relationship
Review costs, gifts and exceptions, then share an approved update with participants and donors. Retain the history for the next trip.
Include an exception: a required document is missing
The participant has reached the fundraising target, but the team still needs a signed document. Assign the document follow-up before marking the participant ready.
What to compare before you choose
- Application and participant experience
- Fundraising versus trip-payment collection
- Requirements, signatures and team readiness
- Donor records, receipts and post-trip stewardship
Plan the move, not just the demonstration
Begin with an upcoming trip. Import participant and donor history, configure requirements and payment paths, and walk through a registration, contribution and closeout with your coordinator and finance lead.
Compare subscription, implementation, migration, payment and usage costs where relevant. Agree who owns the work after launch and what information you can export.
