Event donations help you welcome financial support from members

Funding is critical for the long-term sustainability of a group. However, not all leaders want to chase sponsors to stay sustainable. Now we have a seamless way to stay inclusive and empower those who want to give back with sliding scale event donations.

Key benefits for you & your members

Free stays free: Events and groups can remain open to everyone; donations are purely optional.

Friction‑free checkout: Sliding scale lets members choose (or skip) in one tap and contribute Apple Pay, credit cards, and more.

No more money talk: Toggle donations on, set a suggested range, and you’re done—no awkward asks on event day or chasing members with links.

Real‑time insights: Dashboards show total raised, top contributors, and per‑event breakdowns.

Instant receipts: Members can retrieve donation receipts with a single click.

Works with paid events and groups: Donations can be added to a paid ticketed event or membership dues club as well to earn a little extra.

How it works

Add a “Donate” option to your event with the tap of a button, and empower members to contribute right as they register or anytime therafter.

  1. Create or edit your next event.
  2. Toggle on “Donations.
  3. Set a suggested amount along with a min and max and publish. That’s it!
