Filpac

Filpac is software for running political campaigns and membership organisations, covering fundraising, supporter contact and volunteer recruitment. Its users range from school board candidates up to presidential races, along with PACs, non-profits and party bodies in the United States.

What Filpac offers

• Campaign and membership management — keeps records of members, supporters and donors so staff can extend personal contact to thousands of people.
• State and FEC electronic filing — used for federal and state filing since the Federal Election Commission introduced it in 2001.
• Flexible deployment — runs on the web, on a local network or on a single PC, or any mix.
• Data conversion — imports a customer's existing spreadsheets, usually within a day.
• Phone support — callers reach a person or get a quick callback, and the first month of support is unlimited.

Who it works with

Candidates at every level, PACs, non-profits and party organisations, including treasurers who manage several committees.
