Switching donation platforms is scary for one simple reason: losing years of history, totals and leaderboard positions. DonoLink imports your previous donations so your dashboard, statistics and top donors leaderboard continue where you left off.
Your most loyal donors care about their place on the leaderboard, and you want to compare the months before and after the switch. With imported history, the all-time leaderboard stays fair and your charts show the real trend.
The import is the memory of your channel, not the accounting of the old service: any funds still held by your old tool must be withdrawn there.
Available data depends on each service's export:
Check a few donations you know: amount, date and message. Then check your leaderboard and totals. If you imported alerts, open them in the editor, adjust them if needed and send a test alert. Fully custom HTML, CSS or JavaScript cannot be converted reliably.
No. The import brings over history (amount, name, message, date), not money. Withdraw your balance from your old service.
Yes, they are included in your statistics and top donors leaderboard with their original date.
Export a CSV with the date, name, amount and message of each donation and import it as a CSV source.
No. It is included in the free account. DonoLink only charges 3.5% on new successful donations.
