Save a Draft Before Verifying Your Email
When you sign up with email and password, FundlyHub sends a link to confirm your address. You don't have to wait for it to start your campaign: you can build and save a draft first, and publish once your email is verified.
What you can do before verifying
| Before your email is verified | After |
|---|---|
| ✅ Open the campaign builder and fill in everything — photos, title, story, goal | ✅ |
| ✅ Save your work as a draft and come back to it | ✅ |
| ❌ Publish the campaign, or submit it for review | ✅ |
| ❌ Edit a campaign once it has been published | ✅ |
| ❌ Comment, post campaign updates, report a campaign, or register an organization | ✅ |
Signing up with Google or Apple counts as a verified email — the provider has already confirmed the address — so none of this applies to you.
Giving to a campaign through its Donate button does not need a verified email (or an account at all).
On the website
- Open fundlyhub.org/create. A banner at the top says "You must verify your email before publishing a fundraiser."
- Build your campaign as usual. The builder saves your draft automatically every 30 seconds.
- The Publish button stays disabled until your email is verified — hover over it and it says "Verify your email to publish".
The website keeps your draft in this browser
The builder's draft is saved in the browser you are using, for your account. If you switch to another browser or device, or clear your browser data, it will not be there. Finish in the same browser, or verify your email first.
In the FundlyHub app
In the app, closing New campaign saves your campaign to your account as a draft, so you can pick it up on any device after signing in — including before you have verified your email.
You can keep up to 5 drafts while your email is unverified. If you already have five, saving another shows "You can keep up to 5 drafts until you verify your email address. Verify your email, or delete a draft, to save another." Verifying your email removes the limit.
Verify your email
- Find the email "Verify your FundlyHub email address" and click the link. The link is valid for 24 hours.
- Didn't get it, or it expired? Click Resend on the "Verify your email" banner, or request a new link from the sign-in page. Each new link replaces the previous one. Check your spam folder too.
Once verified, open your draft and click Publish. Publishing also needs a complete profile — see Create a Campaign, step 2.
