Who are Simple Fundraising? Simple Fundraising Limited are a UK registered company that provides an online fundraising system for schools, colleges, charities, clubs, churches, organisations or family groups. Our sole purpose is to provide a simple to use system to enable you to effortlessly raise funds for your organisation Why is Simple Fundraising so effective? Businesses are constantly looking for new and innovative ways to reach the consumer. With Simple Fundraising, national businesses can supply their products and services directly to your member base. This method of advertising is much cheaper for businesses to run compared with national TV, radio or press campaigns. The money saved on advertising, plus new customers for their business means that when your supporters use your fundraising webpage to purchase online, these businesses reward your organisation by paying a commission. How much can we realistically expect to earn? First off, let's be clear that earnings are unlimited - there are no caps or ceilings and you get paid every month that your account balance is over £20 . Based on our experience, the average size school in the UK could reasonably expect to earn over £6,000 per year with minimal effort. Larger schools and those with a more active member/supporter base can easily expect to see this amount double. Furthermore, if you refer other schools, organisations or groups, you will also receive a bonus equal to 10% of the amount of money they raise! Can you provide me with exact examples of potential commission payments? Different retailers offer different rates of commission depending upon their own business models. However, below are just a few examples of how much you could earn from key retailers:
These are typical examples and exclude any promotional offers which will earn you even more What if the supporter doesn't buy straight away? Consumers like to shop around and browse - that's natural. However, when one of your supporters visits a shop via your webpage, they leave a small "footprint" that stays with the retailer for anywhere up to 60 days. If your supporter then goes back directly to the retailer before their footprint "expires", then the retailer knows that your webpage is the reason they have a new customer and so you are still rewarded with the commission. What about privacy? Simple Fundraising operate a very strict privacy policy, as do all the retailers involved. As an organisation, you will not know which of your members or supporters has purchased an item from one of the retailers. That information is confidential and only available to the retailer and the customer. You will simply be informed of how much commission you have earned from a particular retailer. Where do we see how much we've earned? Once you have registered, you can log-in to your reporting area where you can see your earning statistics as well as your payment history. Your membership area also provides you with the tools to contact your registered members and supporters as well as use other promotional tools that we make available to you. What is your minimum payout? To reduce operational costs, we only issue cheques when your commission balance is greater than £20. Any balance under £20 will be "rolled over" for the next payment period. You do not lose any commission that you have earned. When are payments made? Cheques are sent out once a month, during the last week of each month. Can we earn money from referring other groups? Most definitely. Once you have registered, you will be given a referral code to pass on to other groups. For each group that subsequently signs up, you will earn a bonus equal to 10% of the amount of commission that they themselves earn - each and every month. What about "Adult" retailers? Simple Fundraising are a socially responsible company and we operate a very strict moral code. While "adult" natured retailers offer very high levels of commission payments, we do not partner, promote or in any way associate ourselves or potentially, your organisation, with these companies. Do I have to belong to a group? No. Simple Fundraising is available to anybody within the UK whether you are part of a group or an individual raising money for yourself. To register, click here.
