Republicans are set to launch WinRed, a long-awaited online fundraising platform, on Monday
early this year to consolidate behind a single online platform that could serve the entirety of the party. Republicans until now have had a factionalized ecosystem of vendors that stymied efforts to unify behind a single fundraising vehicle.
Gerrit Lansing, WinRed’s president, and Mike Shields, a former Republican National Committee chief of staff who is involved in the also project, were expected to brief House GOP leaders on the launch Sunday evening. Lansing, a veteran GOP digital strategist, is slated to address several other party gatherings in the coming months.

With encouragement from Trump's political team, Republicans eventually settled on a plan to unify behind a platform that would fuse Revv, a payment processor used by the president’s campaign, with Data Trust.
