How to create saved recipients

You can create saved recipients in your account in two ways. Recipients can be added in bulk by importing a CSV file or individually by manually entering their information.

Import recipients

  • Navigate to the Import button at the top of the Recipients section of your account.

  • Browse for your recipient file or drag & drop your file onto the page.

  • Use the dropdown above each column to match the title with your data.

    • Mark unused columns as Ignore.

  • To add this import to a group, select a group from the drop-down or click Create a Group to make a new group from your import.

  • Enable the Sync Recipients setting to update your existing recipient data.

  • Begin your import by clicking Import Recipients at the bottom of the page.

Note:

  • Enabling Sync Recipients will deactivate recipients not included in the current import and cancel all pending gifts scheduled for those recipients.

  • Import times may vary depending on the size of your file. Once your file has been processed, a summary report will be emailed to you to let you know it is complete.

Create a recipient

  • Select Create Recipient at the top of the Recipients page to add an individual recipient.
