Get started

Start your campaign the right way.

Here's exactly how onboarding works — including the one step every compliant campaign site needs and most builders skip. Start free in the app, or start your profile below and we'll help you get set up.

How onboarding works

Six steps from "I'm running" to a live, compliant site.

01

Tell us your race

Candidate or committee name, office, jurisdiction, and election date. Your site is generated from this.

02

Build & preview free

Refine the generated site in a drag-and-drop editor. Building and previewing is always free.

03

Committee & compliance

Your registered committee name and ID generate a correct "Paid for by" disclaimer — the step that makes your donate page legal.

04

Connect your donate tool

Embed ActBlue, Anedot, or your processor of choice. We're a pipe — we never touch the money.

05

Pick your domain

A free name.electbase.com subdomain or your own, with SSL handled for you.

06

Verify & publish

Once your committee checks out and your disclaimer is correct, you subscribe to publish and go live.

Why we ask for your committee

The paperwork step isn't busywork — it's what makes you legal.

The FEC (and nearly every state) requires a clear "Paid for by [your committee]" disclaimer on your homepage and every page that asks for money. That disclaimer has to name your registered committee — so we collect your committee details up front, generate the disclaimer for you, and confirm it before you publish.

  • Federal committees: we verify your FEC Committee ID (C00…).
  • State & local: we confirm your registration and Statement of Organization.
  • Not registered yet? You can still build and preview — we'll help before you publish.
What you'll want handy
  • Your committee's legal name
  • FEC or state committee ID (if you have one)
  • Treasurer name
  • Which donate tool you use
