Believe Online

Profit is made from the purchase of every item from your store. Students can invite family and friends to shop once they register. Invitations are sent via social media, text, and/ or email.

Your group receives a profit off every sale made from your store.

Registration is the only way to promote a Believe Online fundraiser. It's also a very effective way to get your students engaged in your cause. As students register, they’ll be able to share their unique link using text, social media, and/ or email.

This takes people to your store where a ‘Reason to Support’ button appears above the name of your group. Your purpose is displayed once the supporter clicks the button. This way, they can see the reason for your fundraiser. This helps personalize your cause. For example, “With your help, we'll reach our $2,000 goal for new band equipment.”

Both you and your sellers can track their sales. Students will be able to see how many supporters they have, social shares, and money they've help raise. Sponsors can track things like:

• Student share activity
• Registered students
• Sales updates
• Items sold

Getting students to register is key to your success. You can enhance sales by setting individual seller goals based on your group’s needs.

Be sure to track your fundraiser progress and remind students to invite people to your store. This will help your students reach their goal.

Registered students will also be eligible to earn credit towards prizes. We encourage groups to supplement the prize program we offer with additional incentives.

You will not receive a unique link. Rather, once students register, they’ll receive their own shopping link. They’ll be able to email, or text their link direct from their dashboard, and share on social media.

There is no in person ordering or money collection. Students generate sales when the people they invite buy items from your store.

There are no setup fees or costs to run a Believe Online fundraiser.

Motivating your students with prizes can improve sales. It’s important that you promote your incentives throughout your sale. This will keep your group motivated.

We offer 2 prize program options:

1. Cash
2. Traditional

You’ll receive a sales report showing your students names and how much they sold. Prizes are shipped with a reference list that matches prizes with students.

There is no cost to the group for our prize programs.

Because this is an online fundraiser there are no brochures. Before your sale, you’ll receive a registration instruction steps email. Be sure to forward it to your sellers.

By default, we set your end date 2 weeks after your start date. You can always change your end date. Simply let us know before your sale ends.

Or, let us know up front when you want your store to close.

Once we send you your student registration instruction steps, your store is live. We recommend that you schedule an official kickoff meeting date and time.

If you can't meet in person, consider using an online communication technology. Examples include Zoom, Cisco Webex, GoToMeeting and Google Hangouts.

No, we work with non-school groups as well. Examples include church groups, sports leagues, and dance organizations.
