Managing and submitting applications has never been so easy

Foundation software for funding organizations and nonprofits: With StiftungSchweiz’s application and funding management software, you can start managing your organization digitally. Simplify the application process, leverage the potential of digitalization and make a greater impact.

Accept applications

As a funding organization, create one or more application forms that meet the needs of your organization. Accept applications from nonprofits looking for funding directly on your organization profile.

  • Use the form template that corresponds to the typical funding processes or create a customized form – the choice is yours.
  • Complete the form to request items or documents required by your organization.
  • Decide whether you want to accept applications or pre-applications via our system and whether organizations or individuals or both can submit applications.
  • Benefit from the direct integration of the application form on your StiftungSchweiz profile and receive applications online.

Manage your requests

Collect your applications in one central location and benefit from numerous practical functions.

  • Control the application form on your organization profile with just one click. This allows you to decide for yourself when your organization is open for applications and when it is not.
  • Assign the appropriate status to the requests and thus create structure.
  • Store reply templates and send the applicant a message quickly and easily when the status changes, stating the reasons for the status change.
  • Maintain an overview by marking and filtering searches with individual tags. The tabs keep all searches manageable and in one place.

You can use the comprehensive application and funding management for funding organizations at the partner level for CHF 1,650 per year.

Process individual requests and share assessments with those responsible

We provide you with the necessary tools: evaluate, comment on and log incoming applications in the practical detailed view.

  • Study all information on applications: project duration, requested amount, request, details of the organization, etc.
  • Record the processing or discussion of the application in a journal.
  • Enter your recommendation to the Board of Trustees in a separate data field for each application.
  • Prioritize incoming requests with the upvote and downvote function.
  • Comment on requests and share your assessments and thoughts with your colleagues.

Enter your assessment per application in the decision module

An intuitive interface allows you as a foundation board member to study, evaluate and comment on the applications. As the head office, you simply send the applications ready for evaluation to those responsible.

  • As the head office, notify the decision-makers (foundation board members and other experts) with the so-called Magic Link and a personal message about applications that have been received and pre-checked.
  • As a decision-maker, use the Magic Link to check in to the decision module without any worries.
  • Stay in your foundation world thanks to branding with your foundation logo in the decision module.
  • Enter your evaluation (comment + recommendation) for the applications provided in the decision module via a simplified interface.

Collaborate in application management

Teamwork makes the dream work: Use clever functions to process applications collaboratively.

  • Create a private network to process the request with your colleagues. So you can find everything in one place and use it as an archive.
  • Comment, tag and prioritize requests to share your assessments with the team.
  • Open a shared network and invite the applicant organizations to exchange information about the request digitally. Create a space where you can have direct contact with project owners and record developments.
  • Export the requests to edit and discuss them offline or in other media.
