  • 💬 Texting: Text thousands of your supporters with only one click – schedule sends, cut lists from ActBlue automatically, include a photo or video, create automated welcome messages, see real-time fundraising results, and more. We support short code programs as well!

  • Forms: Build free and customizable sign-up forms, surveys, or petitions that integrate seamlessly into our texting and email products so you can capture and leverage submission data in one platform.

  • 📧 Email: Choose to write HTML emails or use our drag-and-drop visual editor. We provide a detailed email performance dashboard so you can grow your email program while keeping a close eye on deliverability.

  • 📊 Fundraising Analytics: Visualize your ActBlue fundraising data for free! We provide several dynamic dashboards so you can focus on running your program, not crunching numbers. Track high-level metrics, channel breakdowns, recurring donations, and more.

  • 🔗 Shortlinks: Create a free, unique domain for your organization and use “shortlinks” to track engagement (clicks) and reduce the length of your URLs in public-facing materials. For example, swtch.to/new-onboard takes you to our account request form.
