We will help you import existing contacts such as members, donors or email subscribers. There may be a charge for this depending on the quantity and complexity of your data.

Making the transition to White Fuse often involves importing contacts and mapping your existing data structure over to our required format. We provide a service to help you with this process that includes:

• Checking your membership structure looks good
• Checking your data once you have prepared it
• Making minor required amends on your behalf
• Carrying out the import itself
• Checking that the data has been imported correctly
• Answering any questions you have during the process
• Advising you how to communicate with the contacts you have imported

We do all of this for a simple fee of £0.50 per contact.

You can set your system currency to any of the following:

• £ GBP (default)
• $ USD
• € EUR

Whatever your system currency, you can receive payments from anywhere in the world due to our powerful integration with Stripe.

When you start a free trial the system currency is set to £ GBP by default. If you need to change this please email us at support@whitefuse.com.

White Fuse provides all the the tools you need to build your main public website and using these tools provides members with a fluid and integrated experience with all member content held on the main website.

However, if you need to keep your current website for some reason you can use White Fuse to build a separate membership website and then point members from your main website to the membership website at appropriate points such as to join, book events or submit feedback forms.

Payment is monthly by Direct Debit. There are no annual contracts so you can cancel anytime. All your content and data remains yours and you can take it elsewhere at any time if you want to switch to a different platform.

Our expert UK-based support team will answer technical or strategic questions about using the software. There's no limit to the number of questions you can ask and we aim to respond to each question within a few hours.

White Fuse is easy and intuitive to use and many customers manage to get started using the built-in guidance and help centre. We do provide an optional design and setup service to help you configure the software and build a great looking website.

We offer a comprehensive help centre that includes lots of useful written guides and training videos. You will also get unlimited access to our support team via email. We also offer paid remote training sessions if you prefer dedicated face-to-face guidance.
