If you need to change the displayed recipient name on your campaign, follow the steps outlined below. Please note that business recipients (Type: Business) do not need to change the recipient's displayed name.
Note for Business Recipients
When adding a recipient, the campaign owner should choose Type: Business. The business name or DBA (if applicable) will be displayed automatically. If you have already added a recipient as an individual and need to change it to a business, please contact us at support@givesendgo.com from the email address associated with your account to reset the recipient information.
Note for Campaign Owners (Organizers)
