“…Existing studies mainly include three categories of factors that affect the success of online donation projects. One such category includes platform and project factors, such as appeal style (Bruyn & Prokopec, 2013; Kamatham et al, 2021; Moon & Vanepps, 2022), aid effectiveness and framing (Metzger & Günther, 2019), goal gradient (Kivetz et al, 2006), donation collection methods (Suk & Mudita, 2022), and the phrasing of projects (Gu & Chen, 2021; Lu et al, 2022; Pfeiffer et al, 2022).
