Throughout the year, we will continue to iterate on back-end experiences with a specific focus on simplifying the admin interface based on your feedback. Stay tuned for those changes as they come / are made available.

GC Events

• A new events landing page is coming later this fall – we will not “force update” your active  events, and you will be able to easily update to the new format on request.
• Personalization Links for event registration will be available for all GC Events admins, coming in the first half of 2026.
• Ticket Packages will be available for all GC Events admins, coming later this year.
• Sequences (Invites, Reminders, Follow Ups), including text/email via Outreach and Smart Send will be available in the first half of 2026.

GC Volunteer Management

We hosted a deep dive on Volunteer Management at GCPC to share our findings from our VM listening tour and showcase some potential changes.  Pplease email Michael, the VM Product Manager (michael.weingarth@givecampus.com), to learn more or share any other ideas / feedback.

GC Gift Officer

For DXOs / LAGOs / MGOs

• Smart Portfolios will use GC Intelligence to dynamically rank each person in your portfolio, based on a predictive model that combines the probability they will open an email right now with the probability they will accept a meeting invitation and/or make a gift this fiscal year – coming in early 2026.
  • We're also testing a new model to identify likely interest areas; later this year, you'll see who to prioritize AND what to engage with them about.
• Smart Segments are lists of prospects most likely to take certain specific actions, like setting up a recurring gift or upgrading to a leadership gift – these are live today.
• Smart Cadences will generate dynamic cadences around specific segments, so you do not have to “guess” which steps to take, but can leverage the power of GC Intelligence. We expect Smart Cadences to be available in the first half of 2026.

For Phonathon / Student Engagement

• GC GO for students is already changing how engagement centers across the country work; learn more about how to give your phone-a-thon program a “glow-up.”

• GC Intelligence will simplify the import process by dynamically creating import templates later this fall – this will help you share more data to power GC Intelligence across the platform.
• We will have full coverage for our GiveCampus API by summer 2026.
• We will cover all workflows for our RE NXT integration by summer 2026.
