How do I add sponsorship money to the "you helped raise number"?

You can manually add offline payments you've received from sponsors or others in transactions.

If you'd like sponsors to pay with a credit card, you can also sell sponsorships directly from your Swell site by creating them in Products. When a sponsor purchases from the front side of your site, the transaction amount will automatically be added to the "you've helped raise" number.  

Be sure to select the referral from the drop-down if someone should receive credit for bringing in this sponsorship.
