Overview
The GoFundMe Pro and Tatango integration supports the collection of SMS opt-ins from both GoFundMe Pro's donation pages and event registration forms, including Ticket Event and Registration with Fundraising campaign types. This allows organizations to capture and engage attendees effectively by utilizing opt-in preferences right from the event registration process.
Additionally, the donation and registration data is captured for segmentation and personalization, enabling organizations to tailor their messaging based on participant engagement and donation history.

Donation Tracking & Attribution
Tatango now supports capturing donation data from GoFundMe Pro and attributing donations to specific messages.
To enable this functionality:
Enable Donation Tracking
From within your list, go to Settings -> General
Turn on the Enable Donation Tracking toggle
Configure a Donation Attribution Parameter
When sending messages with a link to an GoFundMe Pro donation form include
c_src={value}
in the URL. The value should be unique to this message campaign you are sending. Any donations with this value for c_src coming from GoFundMe Pro will be attributed to this message.Example:
https://yourdomain.org/donate?c_src=20250721_sms_2
We recommend using Powerlinks to map
source
to message id, as long as each message has a unique name.If not using message name, the
c_src
value should be manually set and must be unique for each send.
Tatango will automatically link incoming donation records to the correct message using this parameter, allowing you to:
Attribute donations to message sends
Use built-in donation-based segments for targeting your audience
