Create a Petition Page

Acquire new leads for your organization with petition pages

Updated over 2 weeks ago

Petition Pages are a free tool included with every Revv account that allows you to collect emails, phone numbers, and other information. They can be used as petitions around a certain issue, as general campaign signups on your website, or in many other creative ways.

Page Setup

Click on the green + sign:

You will see three page options: a Donation Page, a Petition Page and a Live Stream Page. We linked out instructions on how to create Donation and Live Stream Pages for you to reference, but to create a petition page, click Petition Page.

We only require three settings to be filled out to make the page live. They are the following.


Internal Name: A non-public name for your page to help you keep track of it.
Public Title: The title of the tab that donors can see.
Slug: This gives each page a unique URL when you publish it.

Underneath the Page Slug and Page Name fields, you'll see the option to add either a Campaign or a Source Code to your page.

If you add a value to the Source Code field, every donation made to that page will have that code associated with the donation. This is a great way to add another layer of tracking to your pages!

You can filter by Campaign and Source Code in the Revv Reporting Tool and your reports themselves, respectively.

Creative

Click the Creative tab on the lefthand side of your screen. Here, you can customize how your donation page looks with colors, images, and logos.

Layout

Layout pertains to the size of where the donation information is displayed. Floating is single width, while Double allows you more room to add more information.

Position

Next, you can choose to display the form on the left, center, or right of the page by toggling the buttons under Position.

Steps

You will then see the option to toggle between Multi-Step or Single-Step.

A Multi-Step form cleanly displays form fields across separate pages, presenting the information one step at a time. A Single-Step form simplifies the donation experience in fewer clicks and is easier to complete. It will have all the steps to donate on the initial donation page.

Submit Button Text

Choose the text that will be on the donation submit button.

Call to Action

Next, enter your Call to Action. This text box is used to tell your donors why they should donate to you. Using the formatting options at the top, you can embed links, link out pictures, and customize the formatting of the copy.

Video Embed Code

Next, below the Call to Action section, you can upload a video to your donation page using a Video Embed Code.

We support embed codes from the following providers: YouTube, Facebook, Rumble, or Twitter.

Logo

Next, you can upload a logo to display on your page. Your logo can either be a GIF or a regular photo.Once the Add Image button is selected, you will able to upload a new image or search from the existing ones already uploaded.

You can choose to display the logo on mobile devices as well as desktop. This will show up as a banner when viewing the page on a mobile device.

The difference between the two is that a Desktop Logo will appear at the top of the donation form on your computer. If Mobile Device Logo is not toggled on, nothing will appear when viewing the page on your mobile phone.

You can decide if you want the logo on the form or above the form on the page.

Background

You can set the background to be a solid color or add a Background Image. You can also toggle if you would like the background image to display as fixed so it will not scroll with the page.

Colors

Update your Form Colors. The Primary color adjusts the page's main buttons and links. The Secondary color adjusts the page's amount and checkbox buttons.

You can also choose your Footer Background Color and Footer Text Color.

CSS Override

Customize your landing pages further with our Custom CSS editor, located at the bottom of the Creative tab.

Petition Fields

Here you can decide which fields you'd like to include in your petition. The top three fields (First Name, Last Name, and Email) are set to Yes by default. You can toggle any of these fields on or off depending on your need.

Confirmation

When a supporter fills out your form, you have a couple of options for what they should do next.

Confirmation

Selecting confirmation means that the donor will end on the petition page and will be shown a message and some options that you can customize.

  • Confirmation Text Box: You can write a thank you note here for the person to see.

  • Custom Button: Direct leads to an additional link after they submit their information.

  • Video Embed Code: Include a video message by dropping a video embed code here.

Redirect

This option allows you to send supporters to a different URL. For example, you can send them to a donation page to encourage them to give right after they fill out your form.

To do this add the URL you want to send them to.

If you are using UTMs to track performance you can persist them through the redirect by toggling on the option on.

Here you can also replace standard UTMs with WR UTM. These are non-transformed UTMs that help maintain a Google Analytics session, thus passing unbroken data to GA.

Additionally, you can show lead information in the URL on the redirect.

Marketing

Here you can add an Open Graph Image. An Open Graph Image is a picture that will be shown on social media when you post your page's link.

Here you can also download the QR Code for your Donation Page, and add Embeddable buttons to your website.

Widgets

Widgets are powerful features that improve page conversion rates. You can widgets to petition pages to increase urgency and drive your supporters to complete the form.

Custom Fields

Revv allows you to add Custom Fields to your pages. You can decide if you'd like to add an Existing or a New Custom Field. An Existing Custom Field is one that you have already created on another page.

When creating a new Custom Field, you will need to enter the following information:

The Field Types are listed below:

  • Text Field: This is a regular text field that allows all characters.

  • Number Field: This is a field that only allows numbers to be entered.

  • Text Area: This is a field that allows donors to add longer comments.

  • Checkbox: This checkbox allows donors to accept a condition or disclaimer before donating. You can toggle whether checking this checkbox is required in order to process a donation.

  • Paragraph: This is simply some helpful text you can add throughout your form.

  • Hidden: This is an invisible field. Hidden fields are useful if you would like to set a default value for a field that donors can't edit. They can be prefilled via URL, like many other custom field types.

  • Select Dropdown: This field type allows donors to choose from a dropdown list of options.

  • Multiple Choice: This field allows donors to select multiple options from one list of options.

  • Radio Buttons: Presents donors with a number of options to choose from but does not allow more than one option to be selected.

  • Text Field Toggle: This is a text field that appears after a donor has checked a checkbox.

Disclaimers

Display a Long Disclaimer and Box Disclaimer at the bottom of your page.

Advanced

Enable Entry Mode on your Petition Page to fill out surveys on a lead's behlaf, Enable Captcha, and other settings.

Page Status

On the bottom of the screen, you will see your Page Status options:

  • Live: pages can be seen by anyone, meaning that they will show up when searched via Google, Bing, etc.

  • Draft: pages can only be seen by logged-in members of your team.

  • Password-protected: pages can only be seen by people who enter a password you set. (These are great for sending pages around for approval).

Next to your Page Status options, you will se options for:

  • Viewing what your page looks like in a new tab

  • Saving your edits to your page

  • Copying your page's link to add it elsewhere

  • Archiving your page if you are no longer using it
