How to Work as One Team Through the Pledge & Gift Processing Process

How to Work as One Team Through the Pledge & Gift Processing Process

In fundraising, few processes touch as many hands, or create as many potential bottlenecks, as pledge and gift processing. From the moment a donor makes a commitment to the final stages of documentation, reminders, and fulfillment, multiple departments play a role: frontline fundraisers, advancement services, finance, and donor relations.

When these teams aren’t aligned, delays happen. Agreements get stuck in review. Pledge reminders slip through the cracks. Donors wait too long for confirmations. What should be a moment of stewardship risks becoming a source of frustration.

That’s why organizations are turning to Givzey, Fundraising’s First Intelligent Gift Documentation Solution, to centralize the pledge and gift processing workflow and enable everyone to work together as one team.

Why Gift Processing Often Feels Disconnected

Traditionally, the pledge and gift process is fragmented:

• Fundraisers secure commitments but juggle manual follow-up.

• Advancement services enforce compliance and accuracy but may be left out of the loop.

• Donor relations want to reinforce stewardship, but their communications can lag behind.

This siloed approach slows down agreements, increases errors, and frustrates donors who expect seamless, professional experiences.

Givzey Brings Teams Together

Givzey transforms gift documentation from a static, decentralized process into a dynamic, collaborative asset. With Smart Gift Agreements, Dynamic Workflows, and Givzey Hub, every stakeholder stays connected from commitment to fulfillment.

Smart Gift Agreements

Fundraisers book gifts faster and with greater consistency using pre-built, industry-standard templates. Compliance is built in, so advancement services gain confidence without slowing the process.

Dynamic Workflows

Custom, no-code workflows ensure that endowments, scholarships, capital projects, and more move through the right approval routes. Reviews, revisions, and approvals happen in real time, so no one loses visibility.

Givzey Hub

Mission control for gift documentation. Every agreement, reminder, and update lives in one central repository with real-time version control and permission-based access. Fundraisers, advancement services, and finance always see the same information.

A Better Experience for Donors and Fundraisers

When teams work together in one system, donors benefit. Automated Pledge Reminders reduce awkward collection calls, replacing them with professional, donor-first communication that feels like stewardship. Intelligent Invoicing provides all payment options in one place, reinforcing transparency and ease.

For fundraisers, this means more time to focus on relationships. For advancement services, it means stronger compliance. And for donor relations, it means every touchpoint, from agreement to fulfillment, carries gratitude and professionalism.

One Team, One Process

Fundraising is most effective when everyone works toward the same goal: inspiring generosity and ensuring donor commitments are fulfilled smoothly. Givzey makes this possible by centralizing documentation, automating reminders, and streamlining communication across departments.

With Givzey, you don’t just process gifts, you process them as one team.
