Quick Pledge™ for PACWeb®
Make Giving Simple. Make Decisions Easy. Drive Participation.
At DDC, we believe the biggest barrier to PAC participation isn’t willingness—it’s friction.
Too many choices.
Too much uncertainty.
Not enough guidance.
When contributors hesitate, participation drops.
Quick Pledge™ was created to remove that friction.
It transforms giving from a decision into a guided, effortless action.
What is Quick Pledge?
Quick Pledge™ is a simple, customizable URL that pre-configures a contribution experience for your users.
Instead of asking contributors to figure out:
How much should I give?
Should I give once or monthly?
What’s allowed?
You guide them directly to the right choice.
Why It Matters
Quick Pledge is about more than convenience—it’s about clarity and conversion.
No forms to figure out. No decisions to overthink.
Just a clear path forward.
When the decision is simple, more people say “yes.”
You can strategically lead users toward:
Recommended giving levels
Monthly participation
Max-out contributions

Events → Enable fast, on-the-spot contributions
