A Fundraising Discount Card Means Easy Money for Your Organization

A fundraising discount card can make your organization up to 90 percent of the profits from each sale. Many organizations choose to sell these discount cards because they are easy to sell and the profit margin is large. Businesses like them because the cards are an easy way to advertise and get customers.

Fundraising discount cards work in two ways. First, you can choose to contact local merchants and find those that are willing to participate. Then you negotiate a contract with them about the discount that they will offer to customers who show the card. Once you’ve agreed on everything, you submit the details to the discount card company and they make up cards showing your organization and a list of participating merchants.

The second way that discount cards can be produced is to have the fundraising discount card company do the merchant contacting and negotiating for you. You just provide the company with a list of potential merchants and they do all the work for you. You’ll earn less profit per card this way, but there is also a lot less work involved.

Cards have your organization logo or information printed on them and they are made of durable material similar to a library or rental card. You can sell the cards for whatever amount you like, but most of the time organizations sell them for between $10 and $25. They are good for discounts for a particular amount of time, usually a year.

Many reasons exist for using fundraising discount cards for your organization. One is that people like getting a discount. If you keep the cost of the card down, more people will buy them because they know that they’ll be getting their money’s worth. Not only will organization members want to buy a card, but other community members will as well. This increases the amount of potential customers and profit.

Fundraising discount cards provide an easy fundraiser. You don’t need to put hours and hours into planning an event or worry that you won’t have enough people to help. Discount cards almost sell themselves and with a little preparation, you’ll be done with all the necessary arrangements fast, leaving you time for other activities.

Consider using a fundraising discount card for your next fundraiser. You’ll earn up to 90 percent of the profits and the cards are easy to arrange. Both organization members, local businesses, and other community members will thank you.
