Host a better fundraiser with 99Pledges through:
99Pledges has deeper expertise in peer-to-peer fundraising than Snap! Raise. We’ve helped thousands of schools, booster clubs, and sports teams reach their fundraising goals through engaging events like Walk-a-thons, Fun Runs, Dance-a-thons, Read-a-thons, and more. These events inspire participants to take an active role in fundraising and are proven to garner support from a much larger audience than other campaigns. With 99Pledges, you’ll even get your own fundraising coach who will help you raise more money with less effort!
With 99Pledges, you can track and share individual and group progress in real time to make fundraising a fun and competitive experience. Displaying live campaign statistics fuels a healthy sense of competition among participants and motivates them to keep securing pledges, boosting your revenue. To further incentivize participants, consider offering prizes to your top earners!
Unlike 99Pledges, Snap! Raise requires participants to send at least 20 emails or texts before their fundraiser goes live. This puts undue pressure on your community and stalls your revenue. 99Pledges removes that friction entirely, so families can start fundraising right away without the extra steps.
Additionally, while Snap! Raise will create a custom fundraising page for your overall group, your campaign will be more successful if each individual participant has their own donation page. 99Pledges automatically generates individual, shareable donation pages for every participant in your campaign, with no parent or organizer set up required. Participants simply receive a custom link to their dedicated page, which they can share with friends and family via text, email, and social media to start collecting donations.
While Snap! Raise users only keep 80% of their earnings, the margins on a 99Pledges fundraiser are closer to 96-98%. 99Pledges has no startup costs and no platform fees. In fact, the only cost you have to cover is the standard credit card processing fee of 3.49% + $0.49 per transaction.
When users switch to 99Pledges, on average, they double or even triple their previous earnings. Our users’ success is driven by our user-friendly approach and advanced, built-in features, like:
WAIT! DO NOT submit this form if you are a PARENT or PARTICIPANT looking for an existing fundraiser. You will need to get a direct link from the organization to access the fundraiser. You can also email support@99pledges.com for help.
