You asked, we listened. You can now export your contributors' messages! Simply put, this means you can download a CSV file containing information on all of your contributions.
How do I do it?
- Go to the pot you want to export the messages from.
- Tap the 'Export' button.
- Tap on 'Export Messages'
- An email will arrive shortly afterwards with an attachment on it.
- Download the attachment to the email
- Open the file in your favourite spreadsheet app such as Excel, Google Sheets or Numbers.
Bob’s your Uncle, you now have a comprehensive list of all payment for that pot, including the messages left by your contributors.
Here’s a few ways that people use the export;
- When creating a gift pot, people often leave messages for the recipient, now you’ll be able to copy them straight into an e-card, or wherever else you want to use them.
- Some people use this for administrative purposes. For example, if someone is doing a collection for a few different teachers in a school, they may have one pot and ask their contributors to put their child’s class name as a reference in this box when contributing.
- You can use this if you need a comprehensive list of all contributions to their pot.
Pro tip: If you want to use the message feature in a specific way, make sure to explain to your contributors what you’d like them to do in the pot description.
