Funraise collects donations for your nonprofit's campaigns. FlowMattic posts each new transaction to Slack so staff can see gifts arriving, and tells finance when a transaction is edited. Development officers hear about major gifts in a direct message, and the whole team can follow a giving day from one channel.

Each one uses only triggers and actions the two integrations ship today, plus FlowMattic's own tools. Where the library has a ready-made template, import it instead of building from scratch.
Ready-made templateGifts appear in a channel with the donor and amount, so staff can follow a campaign as it happens and thank donors while the gift is fresh.
Transaction CreatedSend Channel Message
View the template A change to a recorded gift affects receipts and reports. A private finance channel hears about each edit, with the donor and the new amount, so the books can be checked.
Transaction EditedSend Private Channel Message
A Filter passes gifts above your major-gift level, and the development officer gets a direct message to call the donor personally within the week.

A Counter adds up gifts during the campaign and Set Channel Topic shows the running count, so everyone sees progress without asking for the latest number.

A Router reads the campaign or form name and posts each donation to that campaign's channel, so the team running it sees only its own gifts.

For first-time donors, Slack sets a reminder two days after the gift so a staff member calls or writes to say thank you before the donor forgets the campaign.

At the end, every new Funraise transaction is posted to your team channel with the donor, amount and campaign.
In FlowMattic, open Connects and add Slack with an account in the channel that should get donation alerts.
Create a workflow with the Funraise Transaction Created trigger and follow the steps shown to send Funraise events to it.
Make a small test donation so FlowMattic captures the transaction fields.
Add Send Channel Message, choose the channel and map the donor name, amount and campaign. Test the step, then switch it on.

A trigger starts a workflow. An action is something FlowMattic does in the app as a step.
Funraise and Slack connect through FlowMattic on your own site, with no separate automation account in the middle and no charge per run.
Program, development and leadership staff follow donations in Slack without logging into Funraise.
Filters and direct messages make sure major and first-time donors reach the person whose job is to thank them.
FlowMattic runs on your own WordPress site with unlimited runs, so a giving day with thousands of gifts costs the same as a normal week.
Connect Slack in FlowMattic, start a workflow with the Funraise Transaction Created trigger and add Send Channel Message. Map the donor, amount and campaign into the text, run a test gift and switch the workflow on.
Yes, when the transaction data marks the gift as anonymous. Add a Router that checks that field: one path posts the full message, the other posts the amount and campaign without the name.
It starts a workflow when an existing Funraise transaction is changed. Use it in a separate workflow that posts to finance, so edits are reviewed without showing up as new gifts in the team channel.
Yes. Use a Router with one path per campaign name, each ending in a Send Channel Message step for that campaign's channel.
