Nonprofits who upgrade to Pro VIP (year) level may give select people their own DonationMatch accounts to solicit donations on behalf of the organization--these are known as Authorized Users. Authorized Users are typically people you trust to solicit donations on your organization's behalf but are working on their own events--such as third-party/independent fundraisers or volunteers. By inviting them, you enable them to bypass the DonationMatch vetting and application process and go straight to adding and requesting donations for their events using your EIN. The organization profile you create for the main account will be used as the organization profile for Authorized Users as well.
Authorized Users cannot see, access, or edit the main/parent account.
Inviting Authorized Users for your organization, instead of having them apply for an independent account themselves, means you can:
- Turn on/off their access to DonationMatch at your discretion
There are two levels of Authorized Users which you can add:
- Event Coordinator (Can create events on behalf of your organization)
- Event Coordinator Administrator (Can create events and invite other Event Coordinators to use DonationMatch on behalf of your organization)
