A gala is the highest-stakes fundraising moment of your year – and most organizations stitch together three or four platforms to make it work. One for tickets, one for auctions, one for donations, one for paddle raise. Each with its own login, its own fee structure, its own data silo.

If something breaks at 7:30 PM, there's no single help desk that understands all four systems. Your event director is troubleshooting software instead
of greeting donors – and that's before the first course is served.

HOW IT WORKS

One platform 
for every element.
Ready in an afternoon.

1

Build your event

Create a branded event page with ticket tiers, table assignments, and sponsorship levels. Add your silent auction catalog, configure your paddle raise levels, set up your raffle – all from one dashboard. No separate logins, no integration keys, no vendor coordination.
2

Run your evening

Open your silent auction before the event so bidding builds early and supporters can participate from anywhere. At the event, guests bid from their phones while they mingle. Live auctions and paddle raises keep momentum high, with pledges appearing in real time.
3

Close & celebrate

Winners are notified, payments are processed, and tax-deductible receipts go out – automatically. Send a thank-you text to every donor before they reach the parking lot. Your team goes home after the party, not after the reconciliation. One report covers the entire evening.

Run the event. Raise more.

Skip the chaos.

EVENT TICKETING

Tickets, check-in, and tables

Tables, seats, VIP packages, sponsorships, and event check-in from one branded page. Registration, ticket scanning, and guest management stay connected in one dashboard.

SPONSORSHIPS

Sponsors, managed simply

Sell sponsor packages, track deliverables, and manage recognition in one place. Registration, payment, and fulfillment stay connected
from start to finish.

SILENT AUCTION

Bidding that runs itself

Open bidding early, let guests bid from any phone, and use outbid alerts to keep participation high. Stored cards make bidding and checkout seamless.

LIVE AUCTION

Built for the ballroom

Display View projects lots, bids, and winners on the big screen. Assign winners instantly and keep the room engaged from start to finish.

PADDLE RAISE

Live giving, on screen

Pledges appear in real time as guests give from their phones or traditional paddles. Fulfill instantly, by text, or with follow-up invoices.

GIVEAWAYS & RAFFLES

Easy raffles, built in

Sell entries from any phone, build excitement throughout the night, and draw winners live. A simple way to add revenue to any event.

IMPACT GIVING

Donors choose the impact

Turn specific outcomes into giving opportunities donors can browse and fund. Clear needs increase engagement, trust, and gift size.

SEAMLESS DONOR EXPERIENCE

One card. Every activity.

Guests store a card once and use it for bidding, raffles, donations, and pledges.
Less friction means more giving 
throughout the event.

ONE DONOR RECORD

One guest. One record.

Tickets, auction wins, raffles, donations, and pledges all live in one donor profile. One report gives you the complete picture.
