At Raklet, we continue building with one goal in mind: making your community management experience smoother, more powerful, and more intuitive every day. June was a big month, from a completely refreshed member experience to letting your members run their own events.

✨ What’s New at Raklet?

Four updates this June. The member portal got a top-to-bottom redesign with a calmer look and a mobile experience that finally feels like a native app. Members can now create and manage their own events without waiting on an admin creating. Fundraising was rebuilt from the ground up, with a new campaign builder, a single management cockpit, and clearer progress tracking for you and your donors. And digital membership cards are now configurable, so you decide exactly which fields appear on each member’s card.

Let’s dive into what’s new 🚀

📱 A Redesigned, Mobile-First Member Portal

We gave the member portal a top-to-bottom refresh — a calmer, cleaner look on every page, and a mobile experience that finally feels like a native app.

What you can do:

• Enjoy the new “Calm Community” design across every member page and setting (Profile, Notifications, Privacy, Account)
• Navigate on mobile with a slide-out drawer, a back button, and a 5-tab bottom bar that’s always in reach
• Jump straight to search, recent items, and notifications from the reactive bottom bar
• Start conversations faster with a WhatsApp-style new-chat modal and inline contact picker
• Browse Jobs, Directory, and Events with cleaner filters, modern pagination, and search that matches your organization’s brand colors

Why it matters:

1. Your members get a familiar, app-like experience that keeps them coming back on any device.
2. A cleaner, consistent interface reduces confusion and makes everyday actions effortless.
3. Faster navigation and messaging mean more engagement across your community.

🗓️ Member-Created Events

Your community doesn’t have to wait on an admin to get together. Members can now create and manage their own events directly from the portal.

What you can do:

• Let members create their own events without admin bottlenecks
• Set up recurring events and send automatic email reminders to attendees
• Let members add events to their personal calendar with one-click calendar export (.ics)
• Guide members straight to ticket setup right after they create an event

Why it matters:

1. Communities grow when members can take initiative — not just organizers.
2. Recurring events and reminders keep attendance high with zero extra admin effort.
3. Calendar export means fewer no-shows and a smoother experience for everyone.

💚 A Better Way to Run Fundraising Campaigns

We rebuilt the fundraising experience from the ground up — easier to launch campaigns, clearer to track them, and a cleaner donation experience for your supporters.

What you can do:

• Create and edit fundraising campaigns with the new campaign builder
• Manage everything from a single campaign cockpit, complete with payment actions
• Track progress at a glance with visual progress cards across your campaigns list
• Give donors a redesigned, clearer donation detail page
• Stay on top of failed recurring donations so no contribution slips through the cracks

Why it matters:

1. Launching and managing campaigns is faster, so you can focus on your cause instead of the tooling.
2. Real-time progress cards keep your team and supporters motivated toward the goal.
3. Better visibility into recurring donations protects the revenue your community depends on.

🪪 Configurable Digital Membership Cards

Your membership cards should show what matters to your organization. Now you can decide exactly which fields appear on each member’s digital card.

What you can do:

• Choose which information fills each slot on the digital membership card
• Tailor cards to your organization’s specific needs and branding
• Give members a card that reflects the details relevant to your community

Why it matters:

1. Every organization is different — your membership cards should be too.
2. Showing the right details makes cards more useful for check-ins and member benefits.
3. A polished, relevant card strengthens the sense of belonging for your members.
