Meet WhyDonate, powering global fundraising campaigns

WhyDonate is a fundraising platform that makes online donations accessible to people worldwide. It offers various solutions, such as a platform, a peer-to-peer, and a donate button plugin, to meet the needs of different users. WhyDonate allows organizations, charities, individuals, and companies to create fundraising campaigns and make their initiatives and wishes come true.

The WhyDonate team has helped users from around the globe collect over €15M since 2012 and has prioritized user convenience.


The challenge: Reducing developer effort in localization workflows

The main task facing LingoHub was to enable WhyDonate to translate its platform with non-technical specialists and reduce developers' involvement in the process.

Such an approach was intended to save the development team time and effort and speed up the process by involving only the translation team.


The solution: Efficient localization with independent translation teams

After more than two years of LingoHub use, WhyDonate accelerated the localization process twice, reduced localization costs by 10%, and, as a result, enabled users to choose from five languages on the platform. These figures were reached due to various features, including machine translation and the 'favorites' label for the WhyDonate team.

As per the WhyDonate plan, LingoHub helped remove the development team from the localization process, allowing linguists to make all changes independently. As a result, WhyDonate achieved faster turnaround times, ultimately leading to a more enjoyable user experience.

"We were searching for a tool that would enable us to efficiently organize and oversee the translation process of our PlanRadar web app platform and mobile app. The main challenge we faced was the sheer number of languages we needed to manage, which currently exceeds 20, including complex languages like Arabic and Georgian."
