While successfully helping organizations across the United States fundraise thousands of dollars, we have defined these 12 points that make our platform successful.
Friends and family would rather donate a few bucks instead of buying (cookies, bread, pizzas, popcorn, chocolates) items they don’t need. They would like their donation to go directly to you rather than paying for the products that reduce most of their donation.
We also offer the option for donors to cover the cost of our platform fees (only 9.9%). Nearly half of donors elect to cover the fees to maximize their donations.
Most traditional fundraisers require you to buy something to sell, pay up-front fees, and guarantee sales with minimums. At the end, you do all the work and still get stuck with the bill.
Unlike those pyramid scheme fundraisers, our platform simply collects small donations and tracks them in your transparent dashboard by the fundraiser, group, and member.
One of the biggest nightmares for fundraising managers and parents is tracking and collecting money. Who has paid? How did they pay? When did they pay? Did they give cash, write a check, send with PayPal or Venmo? Are you sure?
Nothing is more awkward at Thanksgiving when you ask Uncle Bill to pay up on that donation he forgot about, but you already covered.
Our platform does NOT ask for anyone to input friends and family contact information to then aggressively nag and spam their emails and texts until they donate.
We consider our platform a “soft sell” where members send their donation link directly. If they want to donate, they will. Do they need a few reminders? More than likely--but again, that will have to come from the member, not the platform.
Our platform is 100% virtual and your donation link can easily be shared on social media or through email and text messages to friends and family.
No more awkward and unsafe in-person, door-to-door interactions.
With most other fundraisers, you don’t receive your proceeds until the fundraiser is complete. Sometimes this is months later. Our platform is setup where you receive the money the next business day after the donation!
You need the money NOW to buy the equipment, book the facilities, pay for tournament fees, start construction, buy tickets, etc.
Our goal is to make our platform simple and easy for everyone!
We made it easy and fun for DONORS to understand and easily donate.
We made it simple and easy for MEMBERS to share their boards online, through email, and a text message with their friends and family.
We made it intuitive for the MANAGERS to setup and manage the campaigns and track donations through easy reporting in the online dashboard.
Fundraising needs are different and that is why we offer several board layouts to choose from when setting up your fundraising campaign.
Each board layout provides a fun, visual way to donate money to your fundraiser. Board types range from Standard and Calendar to Raffle and Progressive.
New boards are always in the works as we work with new users who have great ideas.
We are transparent and don’t believe in hidden fees. There are NO setup fees, minimum fees, or any other type of phantom fees.
Our fees and commissions are transparent, low, and simple:
2.9% + 30¢ = credit card processing fee
7.0% + 10¢ = platform commission
TOTAL FEES: 9.9% + 40¢ per donation.
We take pride in transparency within our platform. We break down all the donations by campaign, group, and member so you can easily track and be transparent with members.
In addition, we break down all donations and fees through reports so you can match up donations as they hit your bank account--to the penny (we’re a little OCD like that).
We know the headaches of traditional fundraisers and have tried to eliminate them within our platform. We’ve done all the hard and time-consuming work for you.
All the setup, management, and reporting is done through our easy-to-use dashboard 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
We want you to succeed!
We will work with you to help answer any questions about the platform or your campaign.
