Full platform
Every feature, one honest price
Paddle-Up is designed for organizations that run real-world fundraisers— jog-a-thons, online sales, galas, auctions, and more—without enterprise contracts. Explore each area below—nothing is paywalled behind “Pro” tiers.
Under the hood, campaigns tie everything together: the same contact might buy a ticket, win a silent auction lot, and volunteer at check-in. Product pages below describe how each module works—workflows, what staff see on event day, and how finance gets a single story instead of stitched CSVs.
Capability map
Each link opens a detailed page: goals, day-of behavior, and how it connects to payments and reporting.
Campaign command center→
Each fundraiser gets a workspace for goals, branding, timelines, and permissions—so ticketing, auctions, and donor outreach all roll up to one campaign ID. Duplicate what worked next year without rebuilding your stack.
Auctions & bidding→
Catalog items and packages, register bidders online or on-site with the Paddle-Up iOS app, run silent or live bidding, and settle with Stripe-backed checkout—staff get monitoring views instead of spreadsheet guesswork.
Bid sheet scanning→
Printable bid sheets with QR anchors to the right lot, photo upload after close, and AI-assisted read-back against registered bidders—fewer midnight transcription errors and a clearer audit trail for silent auctions.
Custom forms→
Campaign-specific intake forms—parents and community members can submit donated auction items with structured fields, photos, and contact details; staff review and approve into catalog and inventory instead of retyping emails.
Ticketing & attendees→
Ticket tiers, capacity, attendee data, and check-in tied to the same roster your finance team sees—no more reconciling three exports to answer “who attended?”
Event seating→
Tables and guests linked to live ticket sales so gala seating stays accurate through door check-in.
Jog-a-thon & pledges→
Participants, pledges, and collection for school fun runs—same Stripe payments and donor records as your other campaigns.
Sponsorship packages→
Define packages, track benefits, and collect sponsor payments inside the campaign—not a side spreadsheet.
Festival games & booths→
Table games and booth sales for carnival-style fundraisers, with inventory and POS that roll into one ledger.
POS & mobile→
Stripe Terminal and the staff iOS app for booth sales and auction checkout—same campaign as online payments.
Payments & payouts→
Stripe handles cards and payouts; Paddle-Up adds 0.1% of each transaction plus $0.15 per successful transaction for the full platform. Disputes and refunds stay visible to staff.
Donors & communications→
Profiles combine purchases, bids, donations, and volunteer participation so thank-yous and follow-ups reference real behavior—not a stale import.
Email management→
Email threads stay organized around tickets sold, custom form submissions, and payments—so staff are not hunting through a generic inbox.
Procurement email AI→
When inbound emails hit your campaign inbox and your organization has AI tokens, Paddle-Up reads each thread against live orders and procurement—then recommends actions your staff can approve.
Event operations→
Volunteer rosters, shifts, tasks, and expenses aligned with ticketing and check-in—so door teams work from the same truth as registration.
Sign placement→
Map yard and road signs so volunteer crews know what is still out and where pickup is needed.
Device monitoring & streaming→
Register each TV or projector with a name, stream different browser tabs or slideshows to different screens, and push a coordinated takeover when every display should show the same deck.
Inventory tracking→
Log donated items, merchandise, and prizes with quantities and locations—tied to campaigns and catalog lots.
AI Assistant→
In-product help and drafting support—purchase AI tokens per organization when you want to use the assistant.
Integrations & APIs→
Organization API keys, webhooks, and staff MCP tools for custom reporting and AI-assisted ops.
