ClickBid + DonorDock: A Seamless Fundraising Connection

When you connect ClickBid with DonorDock through Zapier, your auction data and donor CRM work together automatically. Instead of exporting bidder lists and manually entering gift information, the integration keeps your donor records up-to-date and complete — all without spreadsheets or duplicate entry.

This connection bridges your fundraising events in ClickBid with your donor management in DonorDock, so every bid, sale, and donation flows directly into the system where you steward relationships.

Why Integrate ClickBid and DonorDock?

Connecting the two helps you:

• Eliminate manual data entry between auction events and donor records
• Automatically log gifts and contact updates in DonorDock
• Send timely thank-yous and follow-ups after your events
• Tag or badge contacts based on event participation
• Maintain a single, accurate source of donor data

How the Integration Works

Zapier is the automation tool that connects ClickBid and DonorDock. It uses triggers and actions — when something happens in one app, an action automatically occurs in the other. You can build automations that fit your event workflow, no coding required.

Here’s how it functions in practice:

• When a new bidder registers in ClickBid, Zapier can find or create that contact in DonorDock.
• When a sale or payment happens in ClickBid, Zapier can automatically create a corresponding gift in DonorDock with the correct campaign and fund attached.
• When auction items are created or sold, you can tag donors, update notes, or add badges to recognize participation.
  

Every Zap you build can include filters and custom field mapping to ensure the right data moves at the right time.

Example Workflows

1. Log auction sales as gifts in DonorDock

When a bidder makes a purchase in ClickBid, a Zap automatically creates or updates their donor record in DonorDock and adds a new gift entry with the amount, payment type, and campaign information.

2. Add new bidders as contacts

Every new bidder who registers in ClickBid is added to DonorDock. If they already exist, their profile is updated — ensuring you never have duplicates.

3. Automate follow-ups and acknowledgments

After your event, trigger a thank-you email, assign a follow-up task, or add a “Bidder” or “Event Attendee” badge in DonorDock so your stewardship team can personalize outreach.

By integrating ClickBid with DonorDock through Zapier, you can connect your event fundraising with your donor stewardship seamlessly. Automate the flow of bidders, gifts, and payments directly into DonorDock — so your team can focus less on importing data and more on building relationships.
