Campaign Notifications are handled differently with each pricing option 

1) Notificaions on Voluntary Contribution Campaigns

All campaign notifications (outbids and end of auction messages for auction campaigns, receipt of ticket purchases in raffles etc etc) are sent to participants via email. Receipt of campaign notifications via text message is not included in the Volunatary Contribution Pricing Option.  

2) Notifications on Fixed Fee Pricing Campaigns

With the Fixed Fee pricing option participants can choose to receive messages including campaign notifications, by text message, instead of email.  

They can do this in one of two ways

 - by checking a box during registration.  

Or, by visiting My Account > Account Details and checking or unchecking the box to choose email or text.

3) Registration Settings on Fixed Fee Campaigns

Default Setting

On Fixed Fee campaigns the default setting for the phone number field is optional and email is required. See Setup > Registration. 

This collects email addresses and campaign notifications are sent by via email by default. The participant must verify their email as part of the registration process. 

This set up also provides participants with the option to change their preference to receive notifications via text message instead of email. If the participant checks the box to receive notifications via text, they will be sent a verification code to their phone. Once they click the link in the text or enter the verification number their phone number will be verified and they will receive campaign notifications via text instead of email.
