Who can organise an Online Raffle?
An online raffle may be organised by a Cause or by a Fundraiser however, because of GDPR restrictions, the raffle setup on iDonate must be done by the cause (or by iDonate). A fundraiser does not have access to donor details. Consequently, the Cause or Idonate must assist with Raffle Page Edits and Idonate will provide links for the 3rd party to manage the Raffle in line with GDPR.
I'm a Cause
You can create a Raffle on your Cause Admin Panel under the "Raffles" section on the left
I'm a Fundraiser
