For schools, nonprofits, newsrooms and clubs

Contests your community votes on, for a cause you choose.

Neighbors enter their holiday lights, a favorite local business, their best photo. Supporters vote for their favorites, and every gift goes straight to your organization.

The first campaigns launch this winter.

Yours could be one of them.

Start your campaign

Three steps

How it works

You run the contest. We run the website, the payments and the thank-you emails.

  1. We set it up with you

    Tell us about your contest. We build your campaign page with your name, your logo and your cause, and connect your own Stripe account.

  2. Your community enters

    Entrants sign up from their phone with a photo and a few words. Your team approves every entry before it goes public.

  3. Supporters vote

    Offer a free vote, votes with a gift, or both. Every gift gets an acknowledgment email. Show the standings live, or keep them hidden until the winners are announced.

Why organizations choose it

Made for the people running it

  • Your brand up front

    Campaign pages carry your organization’s name, logo and colors.

  • Money goes straight to you

    Gifts are charged on your own Stripe account and paid out to your bank. Supporters can cover the card fees.

  • Fair by design

    Only votes decide the standings. No one can buy a higher place.

  • Built for phones

    Entering, voting and approving entries all work in one hand.

  • On your own website

    Put your campaign’s leaderboard on your own site with a short snippet.

  • Any kind of contest

    Holiday lights, best-of reader polls, photo contests, weekly awards. Your words for entries, categories and votes.
