10 Benefits of eGift Cards for Your RaiseRight Program
Managing your RaiseRight program shouldn’t feel like a second job. By emphasizing earning with eGift cards, you can make fundraising easier, faster, and more rewarding for everyone involved. This shift simplifies your responsibilities as a coordinator and maximizes your program's earning potential while offering families the ultimate convenience.
Encouraging your families to embrace eGift cards—or even phasing out physical cards entirely—can modernize your program and set you up for even greater success.
1. Eliminate the need to take orders and store physical inventory
With eGift cards, there’s no need to take orders from families or manage stacks of physical cards. Say goodbye to the hassle of tracking inventory, running out of stock, or worrying about misplaced cards. Everything is digital, making it easier to manage and organize your program.
2. No upfront purchasing required
Keeping a physical inventory means purchasing gift cards upfront, which can be a financial burden if your organization currently doesn't have the funds.
Plus, unsold cards can become a problem if your inventory doesn't match participants’ preferences. eGift cards solve this issue by offering a more flexible, on-demand solution. Your participants can buy eGift cards on the go, whenever or wherever they are.
3. Cut out in-person distribution entirely
Physical cards often require in-person pickup or events for distribution, limiting participation to those who can attend or find the time. eGift cards break this barrier, making it easy to include everyone—even those who can’t regularly attend your meetings or events.
4. Reduce administrative burden and errors
Coordinators often spend much time manually tracking inventory and sales, which can lead to errors and inefficiencies. E-gift cards simplify record-keeping, reducing the administrative workload and minimizing mistakes.
5. Protect against the risk of lost or stolen cards
Physical cards can get lost, damaged, or stolen, causing unnecessary stress and financial loss. eGift cards eliminate this risk by keeping everything secure and accessible in your digital Wallet.
6. Immediate delivery and earnings
No more waiting for shipping or delivery—eGift cards are delivered instantly upon purchase. That means faster access for participants and quicker earnings for your organization.
7. Easy to organize and find in your digital Wallet
The RaiseRight app features a digital Wallet where participants can find and organize their eGift cards. Forget digging through drawers or pockets; all eGift cards are right at your fingertips, ready to use.
8. Reduce paper and plastic waste
eGift cards are an eco-friendly alternative to physical cards, helping reduce paper and plastic waste. Cut down on paper and plastic waste while promoting greener, more sustainable choices.
9. Perfect for spontaneous, last-minute purchases and gifts
eGift cards are ideal for spontaneous shopping trips or last-minute gifts. Their immediate availability makes them a convenient choice for participants who need something quickly.
10. Instant gratification for both shopping and earning
eGift cards provide the joy of instant gratification. Participants can shop immediately after purchasing an eGift card and see their earnings contribute to their fundraising goals in real-time.
Simplify your program with eGift cards
eGift cards are just as easy to use as physical cards but come with added benefits—they require less effort to manage, offer greater convenience for your families and participants, and are safer and faster.
