Step 1
Start your campaign
Tell us what you're raising for. Add a photo, a goal, a story. You're live the same day — no setup fee, no waiting.
How it works
Shareathon is a smarter way to raise. We share our profits with you because you share our platform with others. Simple.
The rhythm
Step 1
Tell us what you're raising for. Add a photo, a goal, a story. You're live the same day — no setup fee, no waiting.
Step 2
Parents, friends, alumni, neighbors — anyone who loves your cause can grab a link. Every share is one-tap simple, public or private.
Step 3
Donations come in. Sharers get rewarded when there's a thank-you to give. Bring another group in and you make 20% of their fundraiser totals too.
The model
Every organization on Shareathon runs on the same friendly math. No plan picker, no fine print, no monthly fees. Just one all-in number that covers everything.
Every donation. Every campaign. Every time. You keep 60% no matter who you are — school, church, club, or nonprofit.
Goes into the Share Fund. When you refer another group in, you earn 20% of their fundraiser total. Your total earnings depend on how much each referred group raises — no ceiling on the potential.
All-in. Covers card processing (donors don't get tipped), payouts, hosting, support, and ScriptureGrams if you use them. No add-ons.
You refer. They fundraise. You earn.
Your campaign keeps 60%. Always.
You earn 20% of every Club campaign done by groups you refer. Actual earnings depend on their plan choice and how much they raise.
Potential earnings example
Based on a $5,000 average Club fundraiser per group. Actual results depend on plan choice and what each group raises.
raised → you keep $3,000 (60%).
their $5k raise → 20% back to you.
$5k each → potential total of $5,000, on top of your own campaign.
What if the org I refer picks Plain 80/20?
That's their call — every group chooses its own plan. The Share Fund only funds on Club campaigns, so you earn 20% on the Club campaigns your referred groups run. Plain 80/20 campaigns generate no Share Fund. Either way, sharers get the same $20 gift-card thank-you, fully covered by Shareathon. Full rules live in the Share Fund Terms.
Sharer thank-you
When a sharer's link brings in $500, they earn a $20 gift card. Bring in $1,000, that's two. The small cost is split between your campaign and Shareathon, so the thank-you never dips into your 60%.
Cards go out automatically as soon as our reward partner is live — every dollar your sharers raise is already being tracked.
Go deeper
A plain-English briefing that walks through the platform end-to-end: the 60/20/20 model, the Share Fund, sharer thank-yous, money movement, roles, and how we're built to be different from Zeffy, Snap!, Bloomerang, and the rest. Great for boards, PTOs, and admins who want the full picture in one document.
