How to Link a Raiser's Edge NXT Account to your Event – How can we help?

You can now integrate Raiser's Edge NXT CRM into your Event.Gives event to link your attendees to previous or new constituent records. You have access to creating/syncing constituents, storing notes on constituents, and pushing over gifts to constituent records in the form of an appeal, fund, or campaign. In return, RE NXT will display that constituent's lifetime giving, wealth rating, donor type. Once synced, you can push event transactions as gifts to your RE NXT constituent database.
