Why should Shareathon be your donation app?
It's the only app that lets your group reach over 100% of your original fundraiser — by sharing Shareathon with other groups.
100%+
Of your original fundraiser
Your group keeps 80% of every donation, just like some other platforms — plus a 10% bonus on the results of any group your organization refers to the app.
Nobody else does that. Other platforms pay sales reps — we pay your group.

What if?
Move the sliders and see what your group could bring home — from your own campaign, plus the groups you invite onto Shareathon.

$6,000
That's $6,000 back from a $5,000 campaign — $1,000 more than the campaign itself brought in.
Along the way, sharers who each raise $500 through their link earn a $20 digital gift card — up to 10 of them at this level, funded by Shareathon, never your group.
Figures are illustrative, not a guarantee. The referral bonus is paid to the organization that invited the other group onto Shareathon — one level only, for as long as that group stays active. Of every donation, 80% goes to the cause, 10% funds the Share Fund that pays these bonuses, and 10% keeps Shareathon running. Donors cover standard payment processing at checkout.
And we reward the people doing the sharing. A sharer who raises $500 through their link earns a $20 digital gift card — and another $20 for every additional $500 they raise.
Shareathon funds every gift card. It's never billed to your group, and it's optional — each campaign decides whether to switch rewards on.

See it in motion
Every mission deserves people who believe in it.
A minute on why Shareathon exists — and who you'll invite to be part of yours.
K-12 schools
Find the right Shareathon for your school.
Nothing to sell at any level — just a link your community can share, and a goal to hit.
Built on trust
Designed to feel safe — for kids, parents, and admins.
COPPA & FERPA aware
Built with student privacy at the core. Pre-approved content keeps students safe and parents in charge.
Sharers, not salespeople
Anyone can share — parents, friends, neighbors, alumni. No pressure, no quotas, no awkward asks.
The whole loop
People share a link. People donate. Funds land in your organization's bank account. That's it.
What you get
Everything a fundraiser needs. Nothing you have to manage.
Free to start
No setup fee, no monthly fee, no contract. You only ever share the split on money you actually raise.
Nothing to sell
No catalogs, no cookie dough, no boxes in the gym. Nothing to order, deliver, or chase down.
Gift cards on us
Raise $500 through your own link and get a $20 digital gift card — funded by Shareathon, never your group.
Fits your group
Schools and PTOs, churches and youth groups, booster clubs, teams, and nonprofits all run the same way.
Share anywhere
One link goes out by text, email, Facebook, Instagram, or QR code — wherever your community already is.
Nothing hidden
Donors see exactly where their money goes, and you watch every dollar land in real time.
The whole pricing story
Where every dollar goes.
No monthly fee, no setup fee, no contract. Donors cover card processing at checkout, so your 80% stays whole.
10%
The Share Fund
Nobody keeps a cut of their own campaign. The 10% goes to the group that invited you onto Shareathon — and comes back to you when you invite another group.
10%
Shareathon
Powers hosting, support, and payouts — so the platform keeps running for everyone.
We pay for this, not you
$20 gift card for every $500 someone raises
Turn on gift-card thank-yous when you create your campaign, and anyone whose personal share link brings in $500 in verified donations gets a $20 digital gift card. Shareathon funds every one of them — it never touches your group's 80%, and it's the easiest way we know to keep people sharing.
Ready when you are
Everybody shares. Everybody wins.
Free to start, no contract, nothing to sell. Set your goal today and your community can be sharing before dinner.
Raise more. Share more. Keep 80%.
