Here at Vertical Raise, we’re all about helping after-school programs earn the money they need to fully function throughout the school year. Even though we’re very proud of our crowdfunding platform, we recognize that it might not be the best fit for everyone’s fundraising needs. Sometimes you need to offer donors something in return for the money they give you.

That’s why we’re also getting into the card fundraising side of things. Being able to give your donors access to some useful coupons for helping out your team or program might be just the thing you need to incentivize them.

However, here at Vertical Raise we like to do things differently, which is why our version of the classic discount card fundraiser won’t be like the ones you typically see students selling. We offer our coupon card fundraiser completely through an app.

The app is called Vertical Discounts, and it’s available on both Android and iOS. Our app is free to download, and it instantly gives donors access to thousands of local discounts.

The reason why we’ve gone digital with our card fundraising technique is that it’s much more convenient that your typical physical card or coupon booklet. When people purchase those items, they usually forget them at home or lose them altogether. With an app, it’s always within reach and easy to access. Plus, you can use search features to find exactly what you’re looking for.

After using a digital discount card, donors will never be able to go back to the old ways. That means they’ll come back to you when you run the fundraiser again next year. It’s a great way to ensure that your team or program will always have enough money coming in to keep things going.

If this is a fundraising avenue you’d like to explore, we’re here to help. Reach out to us through our contact page, and we’ll be able to answer any further questions you have about this digital coupon card fundraiser.
