Why use Paperform for participatory budgeting donations?

This template goes beyond simple donation collection. Built on Paperform's flexible platform, it captures donor information, processes secure payments through integrated payment gateways (Stripe, PayPal, Square), and simultaneously gathers community input on budget priorities and democratic participation preferences.

Paperform's conditional logic ensures donors see relevant questions based on their interests—whether they want to join decision-making assemblies, participate in fiscal justice workshops, or simply support the initiative financially. Real-time calculations show donors exactly how their contribution levels unlock different participation opportunities.
