What is an ActBlue Express account?

ActBlue Express is a feature that allows donors like you to securely save your personal and payment information and give with a single tap to any group that uses our tools. That means no more filling out contribution forms every time you want to donate, and you can see your contribution history in one easy-to-find location. And it’s easy to find and update important information in your ActBlue Express account, so you’re always ready to donate to your favorite candidates and causes in seconds!

If you do not have an ActBlue Express account, you will see the option to create one when you contribute! Just create a password, and you can save your credit card and/or PayPal™ information, as well as personal information like your name, address, and employment information. You can also choose a primary payment method that will be charged by default when you donate! Or, you can sign up for an ActBlue Express account at https://secure.actblue.com/signup!

What about Venmo™, Apple Pay® and Google Pay™? You cannot save your Venmo, Apple Pay or Google Pay to your ActBlue Express account, but if you have Apple Pay or Google Pay set up on your device, you can use it to make both one-time and recurring contributions. If you have the Venmo app, you can use it to make one-time contributions. 

One last note: You do not need an ActBlue Express account to donate to the campaigns, organizations, and nonprofits that use our fundraising tools!
