TravelPledge provides your organization with a free year-round fundraising website so your supporters can purchase experiences.

Throughout the year, our generous providers discount their experiences to half off the regular retail price for "Flash Sales". When a supporter purchases a certificate on Flash Sale, a donation of up to 70% of the purchase price goes to your cause.

Access Your Flash Sale Page

Your flash sale page is simply your TravelPledge website with "/flashsale" appended to the end of it:

<short name>.TravelPledge.com/flashsale

Replace "<short name>" with your nonprofit's short name that you provided during signup. Then, share that link with your supporters.

Customize Your Flash Sale Page

From your TravelPledge dashboard

  1. Navigate to the Settings tab. Then click Site Configuration.

  2. Enter information about your organization, such as links to your website, photos and organizational description.

If you want to disable your Flash Sale page, email support@travelpledge.com.

Receive Payment for Flash Sale Purchases

At the conclusion of the Flash Sale, Geronimo Solutions (TravelPledge's parent company) will mail a check to the address we have on file for your organization. To review your address:

  1. Navigate to the Settings tab. Then click Nonprofit Info.

  2. Review your address. If you need it changed, please email support@travelpledge.com. We must be able to verify the address on your homepage or Guidestar to mail a check.

The percentage of the purchase price that you keep will depend on the provider's settings who posted the certificates on flash sale. The percentage will be shown to your donors on your Flash Sale page, and it will always be between 35% and 70%.

Review Online Purchases

You can review purchases from the Year-round tab in your TravelPledge Admin Dashboard.
