Funding plans · itemised budgets

A target is more useful when its costs are visible.

A useful lesson from Indonesian crowdfunding is a prominent spending plan. FundraiserFlow separates estimates, quotations, charges, net funds and delivered work instead of treating a target as proof of impact.

The basis of every figure

Record currency, quotation date, assumptions, charges and whether an amount is an estimate or a fixed price.

Different states

A proposed recipient, approved grant, paid invoice and completed service are different facts.

Clear team roles

Assign responsibility for facts, sharing, donor questions and publishing reconciliations.
