Campaign Donation Link Checklist

Before adding the link

• Choose the contribution platform the campaign is approved to use.
• Confirm committee, treasurer, bank, filing, and account setup with the campaign's responsible reviewers.
• Copy the final donation page URL, not a dashboard or preview link.
• Review donation-page disclaimer language outside PoliticalWin.
• Confirm whether the campaign wants donation buttons in navigation, hero, footer, or issue/news pages.

Testing the button

• Open the campaign website on mobile and tap every donation button.
• Confirm the external page loads over HTTPS and shows the correct campaign/committee.
• Check button placement so donation asks are visible but not excessive.
• Track button clicks if analytics exists and the campaign has approved the analytics setup.

How to use this

• Use this checklist before publishing the donation button and before large traffic pushes.
• Keep the external donation URL in one approved place so the campaign does not accidentally paste old links.
• Retest after changing domains, templates, or navigation.

When to stop using a spreadsheet or document

A checklist is enough while the contribution platform is being set up. Launch or update the website once the external donation URL is ready, reviewed, and tested on mobile.
