Release notes

Last updated: June 23, 2026

Note: These updates are available now or will be rolling out to customers soon.

Studio

Enhancements

• Studio admins can now schedule a campaign—or saved changes to a live campaign—to publish at a future date and time instead of publishing manually in the moment. It works for first-time launches and for updates to existing campaigns, covers pages, settings, and emails, and a scheduled publish can be run now, rescheduled, or cancelled at any time.
• Two new quick-start campaign templates—"Donation Drive" and "Program Catalogue"—are now available to all organizations in the Studio template gallery. The gallery order is now: General Giving, Monthly Giving, In Honor/Memorial, Emergency Relief, Donation Drive, and Program Catalogue.
• The messaging on the campaign Activity Feed has been updated to "Together, we create change" (previously "Help people help each other").

Donor Experience

Bug Fixes

• Our team identified and resolved an intermittent issue where the donation grid defaulted to USD for international donors on non-USD campaigns. International donors now reliably see the campaign's correct currency.

• Our team identified and resolved a screen-reader accessibility issue in the donation cart, where keyboard focus could be lost when changing the donation frequency or amount while the cart was loading. Focus now stays predictable for assistive technology.

April 13, 2026

Studio

Enhancements

• Intelligent Text Suggestions uses AI to help nonprofits generate compelling fundraising copy directly in the campaign builder. Powered by your organization's Brand Kit details, it can write everything from hero headlines to donation appeals to thank-you page content, either as a full page during setup or one element at a time.

For credit card and ACH gifts, you now have the option to limit address collection to ZIP code only to streamline the form and support higher completion rates.

• Story Builder: An optional peer-to-peer capability that lets nonprofits define a campaign mission which carries through the fundraiser creation flow.
