Video Pages let donors watch a video and give to a campaign simultaneously.

There are two main ways for campaigns to use Video Pages immediately:

  • Live stream debates, rallies, town halls, or other events to engage with supporters and raise money from those who can’t attend in person.
  • Show donors the latest interviews, direct-to-camera videos, or advertisements and ask for donations to help continue funding the campaign’s work.

Video Pages are built so your favorite WinRed features all still work without disrupting the video playback.

  • Slates: Add other candidates to the page and split donations.
  • Upsells: After an initial donation, ask donors to give again, support other campaigns, offer special merchandise, and more.
  • Money Pledges: Ask the donor to opt in and give another gift on a future date.
  • Widgets: Add countdown timers, donation button animations, and exit intent popups.
  • Zero-Touch Merchandise: Offer custom products without buying in bulk or worrying about shipping.

Video Pages are available on every WinRed account for no additional cost. It’s the latest feature included with the standard 3.94% processing fee.
