Everything your organization needs to run a compliant, well-documented gala.
501(c)(3) organizations, schools, PTAs and booster clubs, universities, faith-based groups and individuals fundraising for a cause. With or without an event, the platform is built for charity auctions, and it can also run commercial auctions.
On the Free plan there is no platform fee. When winners pay for their items they are offered an optional tip to GalaBid, which they can change to any amount including zero, and a share of tips comes back to your cause. If your winners do not tip, your campaign is not charged. If you would rather supporters never see a tip prompt, the Pro plan and a flat fee option are available for larger campaigns. Stripe's US card fees apply on every plan and are passed through without markup.
