Events are where a lot of real money comes in, and where most fundraising tools fall down. RaiseHQ runs the whole thing — the ticket page, the door, and the compliance record — without special hardware or a separate product.
Build an event page with multiple ticket tiers and free RSVP options in minutes. It embeds on your own site or lives on a hosted page you can share by link or QR code. Contribution limits apply automatically to the full ticket purchase, so nothing over-limit slips through.
This is the part other platforms can't match cleanly. Your volunteers take card payments in person on any phone or tablet they already carry — no card reader, no Terminal device to buy, ship, or charge. A donor taps their card or phone, and RaiseHQ matches the payment to the compliance data your volunteer collected into one complete contribution record.
Every gift at the event — online ticket, RSVP, or door tap — lands in the same place as the rest of your fundraising: the right donor data captured up front, limits enforced, and clean exports for your filer. Money settles straight into your own Stripe account, same as everything else. No separate event product, no separate fees. See everything you own →
Because your form renders on your own page instead of a trapped iframe, Apple Pay and Google Pay show up automatically — so a supporter at the door or on their phone can give in a couple of taps.
In-person tap-to-pay is 3.2% + $0.15 per transaction, all-in — no subscription, no hardware cost, no separate event-product fee.
You don't have to move your whole operation to see if it fits. Run your next fundraiser on RaiseHQ — ticketing, RSVPs, and tap-to-pay at the door — while everything else stays where it is. It's the fastest way to get a real feel for the platform, and the easiest place to start.
