Collect volunteer signups
Follow these steps to collect volunteer signups. It takes a few minutes and needs no developer.
Before you start
You need an organisation account and, to take live payments, a connected Stripe account. Owners, Admins and Editors can make these changes; Viewers cannot.
Steps
Work through the steps in order.
- Add a supporter sign-up block and set it to collect volunteer interest, availability and area.
- Give active volunteers their own ambassador sub-link with a personal fundraising page.
- Assign collection tools — QR codes, tap points — to named volunteers.
- Review who signed up, who collected and how much in the supporters dashboard.
Check it worked
Open your public storefront in a private browser window and complete the action as a supporter would. Then confirm the result appears in the dashboard.
Troubleshooting
Because volunteers are supporters with a sub-link, no separate CRM is needed to see the connection between a person, their page and their total raised.
Frequently asked questions
Is this a full rota and shift-planning system?
No. CharityFront handles recruitment, personal fundraising pages and attribution. Detailed shift scheduling still belongs in your rota tool, and you can export the volunteer list to it.
Can volunteers see their own totals?
Yes. Each ambassador sub-link shows live progress on the public page, which is usually what motivates the next share.

- What is CharityFront?
- CharityFront is a donation storefront and link-in-bio platform for charities. A charity gets one mobile page at chrty.link that holds its campaigns, donate buttons, Gift Aid and Zakat options, events, QR codes and supporter sign-ups, plus a dashboard that reports where each donation came from.
- Who is it for?
- Registered charities and non-profits that raise money from social media, including Muslim charities handling Zakat, Sadaqah and Waqf, and the small fundraising or digital teams who run their campaigns.
- What problem does it solve?
- One bio link cannot serve many campaigns, mobile donation forms lose donors, and charities cannot tell which post, QR code or ambassador produced a donation. CharityFront puts every campaign on one page and attributes each donation to its source.
- Why choose it over the alternatives?
- Fixed impact tiers instead of an empty amount box, Zakat, Waqf and Gift Aid handled as separate reportable funds, ambassador sub-links with their own analytics, and Stripe Connect payouts straight to the charity's own account. It also works alongside an existing donation platform rather than replacing it.
- What does it cost?
- Creating a charity account and building a storefront is free. Publishing publicly and Pro features (ambassador sub-links, shop, quick donate, advanced analytics, integrations) require a paid plan.

CharityFront keeps volunteer sign-ups, ambassador pages and collection results in one place, so a volunteer's shift and the money they raised are the same record.
How volunteer management for charities works.
Tap to donate is contactless giving: a supporter taps their card, phone or watch against a collector's phone or a tap point and the donation completes in seconds, with no cash involved
Event fundraising is money raised around a gathering — a dinner, a sponsored run, a conference — including ticketing, in-room giving and the follow-up ask
Online fundraising is everything a charity does to turn digital attention into donations: the link people tap, the page they land on, the payment they complete and the report that follows
