New Features

• Mobile App – Raisin Platform Authentication
  We have added support for platform-level authentication, allowing participants to log in across the platform rather than being limited to a single event. Participants registered for multiple events can now view and switch between all their events with one login experience, while single-event participants will continue to use the existing event login process. (MA-4042).
• Mobile App – UX Recruit Tab Improvements
  The Recruit tab has been enhanced to make it easier for participants to recruit and engage supporters. Updates include a redesigned Team QR Code with a more concise description, an improved ‘Send a Message’ tile for a more consistent experience, and a ‘Social Sharing’ tile that enables participants to quickly share their team fundraising page on Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, and TikTok. (MA-4534 & MA-4535).
• Mobile App – UX Donations Tab Improvements
  The Donations tab has been enhanced to improve donor management and participant engagement. Participants can now send thank-you messages to individual donors or all donors at once, with the app tracking which donors have been thanked. Support for team donations is available for organizations and fundraising platforms where the feature is enabled. Social sharing options have also been updated with configurable channels, including support for WhatsApp. (MA-4536 & MA-3443).
• Mobile App – UX Fundraise Tab Improvements
  The Fundraise page has been refreshed with improved user experience. Enhancements include a smaller QR code, updated social sharing options, configurable WhatsApp and LinkedIn channels, and an improved sharing experience that copies the fundraising link to the clipboard while launching the selected platform. (MA-3535 & MA-4532).
• Mobile App – UX My Team Tab Improvements
  The Team Progress meter is now displayed as the top tile on the Overview tab, with a link to the Team Page for easy access to team management. The tile is visible to all team members, while editing options are available only to team captains. (MA-1334 & MA-1332).
• Mobile App – Featured Tile
  A new Featured Story tile has been added to the app, allowing organizations to highlight important content and increase participant engagement. Each featured story can include an image or video, descriptive content, and an optional call-to-action (CTA) button that links to either a static URL or a dynamic fundraising page, such as a participant’s Personal or Donation Page. Multiple featured stories can be configured and displayed in a carousel, with customizable sort order and active/inactive settings. (MA-2803).
• Mobile App – Disruption Screen CTA Enhancements
  The Disruption screen has been enhanced to support an optional call-to-action (CTA) button beneath the content. The CTA can be configured to open an external website in the device’s browser or deep link users directly to a specific page within the app, such as the Donations or Fundraise page, providing a more seamless navigation experience. (MA-1591) (MA-5284).
• Mobile App – Challenge Configuration Enhancements
  Challenges can now specify which activities count toward the challenge, such as walking, running, or reading. Challenge goals can be measured by Minutes, Distance, or Points, while activity tracking can remain configured separately using Points. Challenge totals, progress meters, and leaderboards will display the measurement selected for each challenge. (MA-5032).
• Messaging – One-Time Opt-In Message for Non-Subscribed Users
  Added a configuration option that allows users who have not opted in through the website to receive a one-time message inviting them to opt in. Once a user opts in, they can be added to the appropriate messaging journey based on their event participation, such as Recruitment or Coaching. (MA-3550).
