Linking to Your Pledge Forms

• Your main pledge form is assigned as your ‘default’ form:
  http://secure.publicbroadcasting.net/xxxx/default/pledge.pledgemain
• Each pledge form you create will have a unique URL.
• You can run reports for individual forms or totals reports for all forms in your account.
• If you want to skip the pitch page, just turn it off using your Quick Pledge Admin tools.
  

TV-only Pledge form
To better serve public broadcasting stations, Public Interactive offers a TV Pledge Form. With this form, Pledge Levels and Pledge Type may be disabled. The Gift area is listed higher on the form, and the gift pull-down box is expanded and revised. The Sort Order displays premiums by program.

Premiums Manager
The Premiums Manager makes it possible for you to add premiums one at a time or import them from a tab delimited (.txt) file. Easily add text, images, inventory codes, and fair market value with this feature. Once the gift information is entered, the system automatically generates pop-up windows that display descriptions and images when users select these fields. The Premiums Manager also makes turning premium on and off simple, as well as making some premiums active while leaving others pending for future drives.

Assign and Activate Premiums
When adding new premiums to your account or activating existing premiums, remember to assign premiums to each form.  

Even if you are not taking advantage of the multiple forms feature and have only one 'default' form, you need to assign the premiums to that form before they appear.

Only premiums that have the status of 'live' can be assigned to appear on the form, 'pending' premiums will not appear.

There are two ways to assign premiums to your forms:

Assigning one premium at a time using the Premiums Manager:

• In Premiums Manager, click to Search/Edit premiums.
• Edit the premium by clicking on the premium name in search results view.
• Make sure the status of the premium is set to 'live'.
• Under Make Premium Available on check the box(es) next to the form name(s) you wish to assign the premium to appear on.

• Click the Edit button next to the pledge form to which you'd like add premiums.
