Social Media Sharing

Adding Social Media sharing & Facebook Like buttons to your page is a great way to exponentially multiply the number of people exposed to your cause. Choose from the major Social Media sites by selecting the checkbox for each one.

  1. When editing your page with the Payment Page Builder, navigate to the Design tab.
  2. Provide a custom URL to share: This option provides the flexibility to point traffic to any website, or Facebook page rather than to the donation/payment page. Fill in the entire URL, such as [http://www.yourdomain.com]. When using this option, keep in mind that Facebook will inspect your specified website page and determine the best manner in which to represent it by arbitrarily selecting an image and description. To control the Facebook selection process it's necessary to add Facebook Open Graph support to your website. See this link to learn how to control the image and description utilized by Facebook.
  3. Enter a description: This option is useful for when you do not wish to share an external URL, and would like to give a description about your payment page. Choose this option if you wish to point the traffic to the donation/payment page. Users who click on their friends' Newsfeed links or posts will be able to click directly to your donation/payment page. The description should be concise and explain the donation/payment page purpose and cause.
  4. Check the box next to each social media for which you'd like to enable sharing. Below is a description of each:
    • Facebook Like: Allow users to like your payment page on their Facebook page.
    • Facebook Send: Allow users to share this page on their Facebook wall and Newsfeed.
    • Google+: Allow users to share this page on their Google+ profile and Newsfeed.
    • Twitter: Allow users to tweet and share a link to your page.
    • LinkedIn: Allow users to share this page in their LinkedIn Newsfeed.
    • Blogger: Allow users to share a link to your page in their Blogger blog.
    • Email: Allow users to email a link to your page.
  5. Click Save or Save & Exit.
