Find or create a pledge form; offer both ways to give

This article covers gifts made through GiveCampus. Payment and recurring-gift options depend on the institution and the form.

Open Online Giving → Forms → New Form. Choose Form Type: Pledge, enter Form Name and Form Category, and click Create Form. Older interfaces may label the list Giving Forms and the type Pledge Form. Form creation is included in Superadmin, Fundraising Superadmin, Advanced Form Admin, and Basic Form Admin. Missing choices require checking the assigned role and school availability. Pledges → Commitments/Payments is for existing records, not the form builder.

The creation flow selects one form type, and the pledge donor flow submits a pledge. It does not offer an ordinary outright-gift/pledge switch in the same checkout. For a campaign that needs both choices, provide a separate pledge-form link alongside the campaign's ordinary giving link, with clear labels. Confirm the supported content/link editor for that page. A separate link does not automatically roll pledge commitments into campaign progress. Do not assume a combined-flow release date or cite another school's private setup as a supported example.
