In today’s world, cash is no longer the go-to for donations, especially at in-person fundraising events. More people now prefer digital transactions, which are fast and convenient. In fact, 42% of all donations to nonprofits in the U.S. were made using contactless methods, compared to just 8% in 2018.[1] With Radium, organizations hosting fundraisers can easily embrace this shift by offering a free, seamless, cashless donation experience that eliminates traditional barriers and creates a smoother path for supporters to contribute.
Why Cashless Donations are Key for In-Person Fundraising Events
Fundraising events thrive on simplicity and accessibility. By offering a cashless option, organizations can meet donors wherever they are at the event—whether they're enjoying a drink, on the golf course, or simply walking for a cause. Here’s why it’s increasingly essential:
Seamless Donations Anywhere, Anytime: Cashless payment options mean donors can easily give in the moment without needing physical cash or checks. Whether mingling at a gala, enjoying a drink, or participating in an activity, donors can contribute with just a few taps on their phone.
Wider Reach and Flexibility: Cashless donations make it easy for everyone to give, even those who don’t carry cash. With 41% of U.S. adults now going an entire week without using cash, offering digital payment options ensures no donor is left out.[2]
Simplified Donation Management: With cashless donations, there’s no need to handle physical money, making post-event accounting simpler and more secure.
Enhanced Donor Experience: Digital donations align with modern preferences for quick, familiar tech solutions. This enhances the overall donor experience and boosts the likelihood of repeat giving.
