Configuration of Cura Fundraising

To use Cura Fundraising and establish the connection to Payrexx, you need to have an account with Cura. The first step is to request a demo.

Your webhook URL will look something like this: https://my.cura-fundraising.ch/hooks/payrexx/demo/xyz123abc

Configuration of Payrexx

Make sure you're logged in to your Payrexx account before you begin. If you don’t have a Payrexx account yet, you can register now.

To connect Cura Fundraising to Payrexx, navigate to the Webhooks section in the merchant administration of your Payrexx account and click on "Add Webhook":

Assigning donations from Payrexx to a campaign in Cura

To ensure that the donations received through the Payrexx donation form are assigned to the appropriate campaign in Cura, you need to add an additional hidden field to the donation form.

To do this, open your donation campaign in edit mode, switch to the "Contact Information" tab, and click on "Hidden Field" under custom fields:

Adding a hidden field to the Payrexx donation form

Configure the hidden field as follows:

1. Enter any title, for example, "Campaign ID."

2. Use "cura_campaign_id" as the field name.

3. Copy the ID of your campaign from Cura into this field, for example "23."

Configuring the hidden field in the donation form

To find the campaign ID, open the relevant campaign in Cura and navigate to "Information" via the settings icon:

Locating the campaign ID in Cura Fundraising

The campaign ID will be displayed as follows:

Assigning donors from Payrexx to a person in Cura

It is also possible to automatically link the donor from Payrexx to the correct person in Cura. If the donor is not yet in Cura, a new person will be automatically created.

To enable the person linkage, you need to activate the function in the Cura Control Center.
