What is Bloomerang Fundraising, formerly Qgiv
Bloomerang Fundraising (formerly Qgiv) is a nonprofit fundraising platform used to run online donation forms, peer-to-peer campaigns, event registration, and text-to-give. It targets nonprofits that need a unified set of tools for collecting donations and managing campaign workflows across web and mobile channels. The product emphasizes configurable giving experiences (forms, recurring giving, tributes) and integrations with nonprofit CRM and accounting systems, including Bloomerang’s broader nonprofit platform.
Broad fundraising channel coverage
The platform supports multiple common nonprofit fundraising motions, including online giving, peer-to-peer fundraising, event registration, and text-to-give. This reduces the need to stitch together separate tools for different campaign types. For organizations running several campaign formats throughout the year, it can simplify staff training and operational handoffs.
Configurable donation form workflows
Donation forms typically provide options such as recurring gifts, tribute giving, and custom fields to capture donor information needed for acknowledgements and reporting. Organizations can tailor form content and suggested giving levels to match specific appeals. This helps standardize data capture across campaigns and reduces manual follow-up for missing details.
Fits Bloomerang ecosystem
As part of Bloomerang’s product suite, it is positioned to work alongside Bloomerang’s nonprofit CRM and related tools. This can streamline donation-to-donor record processes when the organization standardizes on the same vendor for fundraising and constituent management. It also centralizes vendor management and support compared with maintaining multiple point solutions.
Auction depth varies by need
While the product supports event fundraising use cases, organizations with complex auction requirements (e.g., advanced item procurement workflows, multi-location bidding logistics, or highly specialized checkout rules) may find gaps depending on their event model. Some nonprofits may still require additional processes or complementary tools for sophisticated auction operations. Fit should be validated against the specific auction format (silent, live, mobile, hybrid).
Best value with suite adoption
Organizations that already use a different nonprofit CRM may not realize the same operational benefits as those adopting the broader Bloomerang platform. Integrations can reduce manual work, but they may not provide the same end-to-end workflow consistency as a single-vendor stack. This can affect reporting continuity and the ease of reconciling fundraising and donor management data.
Implementation and governance required
Configurable forms, campaigns, and data fields require governance to keep naming conventions, acknowledgements, and reporting consistent across teams. Without clear standards, nonprofits can accumulate inconsistent campaign structures and donor data. This is a common challenge for multi-channel fundraising platforms and can increase administrative overhead over time.
