Campaigns and Setup

How do I create and activate a new campaign?

Short answer: Campaigns are created and activated directly inside the Fundlet app.

Details:

A Fundlet campaign works much like a Shopify page or product. To launch one:

  • Go to Campaign List
  • Click Add a Campaign
  • Configure campaign details (name, description, images, goals, payouts)
  • Click Activate

Once activated, the campaign is immediately live and ready to accept orders.

📺 Watch:

What is the campaign limit?

Short answer: Paid plans allow unlimited campaigns; the free plan allows up to 2 active campaigns.

Details:

  • Paid plans: Unlimited active campaigns
  • Free plan: 2 active campaigns

Inactive campaigns do not count toward your plan limits.

What happens if a campaign exceeds its plan’s order limit?

Short answer: Your campaign continues running and you’ll be prompted to upgrade.

Details:

  • No active campaigns are paused
  • No orders are lost
  • You can upgrade at any time to continue tracking new orders

This ensures fundraisers are never disrupted mid-campaign.

Can I use Fundlet with my existing storefront or collections?

Short answer: Yes—Fundlet is designed to integrate seamlessly with your existing Shopify store.

Details:

You can use Fundlet with:

  • Existing product pages
  • Shopify collection pages
  • Embedded widgets
  • Redirects from older pages to campaign pages

This allows you to launch fundraisers without restructuring your store.

Why don’t some product images (like sizing charts) appear in the campaign pop-up?

Short answer: Fundlet displays variant-level images, not just main product images.

Details:

If images are missing:

  • Ensure images are assigned to each product variant
  • Not only the main product gallery

This is common with sizing charts, colors, or style-specific imagery.

Why is the “Customize” button missing when creating a template?
