Fundraising Discount CardsSell Fundraising Cards For Quick ProfitsLooking for ideas for fundraisers? You're not the only one. Every group is searching for easy fundraisers that produce big results. Well, selling fundraising discount cards is one of the best fundraisers around. Discount cards deliver considerable revenue for your group at $10 each. They usually produce average sales of 10 units per seller. Coupled with
their 80%-90% profit margins, they also generate considerably more profit than most other fundraising products.
Three types of fundraising discount cards:
Fundraising Card: Discount ShoppingWhat exactly is a discount shopping card?It is a wallet-sized card packed with a selection of prearranged discounts at local and national merchants in your area. Most usually contain a dozen special offers that save the bearer either a fixed amount or a percentage discount. Each card usually retails for $10 and provides for almost unlimited usage of the special offers. The only exception is when you custom design a card to feature a special one-time only discount from a sponsoring merchant. This type of premium offering is often worth half the $10 purchase price all by itself, such as $5 off from a national oil change company. Other money saving examples include free drinks with a fast food order, $1 or more off on a submarine sandwich, savings on video rentals, haircut discounts, free ice cream, and other special offers. Because of their high perceived value (what family doesn't want to save money these days?), these cards are excellent fundraisers. Discount cards can often produce impressive unit sales per participant. It's not unusual for each seller to make ten or more sales. Another interesting benefit is the unique customization of the card. Many suppliers can place your schools' name and logo on the front side of each card. This firmly affixes your group's value proposition in their minds for your next fundraiser. Fundraising Card: Two-for-One PizzaWhat is a pizza card and how is it different?A pizza card is a discount card with an offer tied to a single merchant, usually a national chain. It often provides a two- for-one offer on every order and is tends to be priced at $10 for a card good for a one-year period. Offers vary with most being tied to either a single location or a small group of outlets for a national chain. Pizza Hut cards are good for eat-in dining while most others are aimed at the take-out or delivery market. Given how popular pizza is with younger children as well as teenagers, pizza cards are excellent school fundraising ideas. The cards for Pizza Hut and those for some of the other chains place a limit on the number of times you can use the card, often 21 times. That is a lot of free pizza for $10. Usage is tracked via holes punched in marked spots on the card. Some of the offers also specify that your initial order must be for a large pizza while your free pizza is a medium size. When you think about it, that works well for most adults because they usually want a different set of toppings than what their children enjoy. Pizza cards can be obtained from many suppliers. Most offer the same set of national chains and prices can vary widely, so it pays to shop around. All in all, pizza cards are among the best easy fundraisers based on profitability and ease of sale. Fundraising Card: Fast Food DiscountWhat do I need to know about fast food discount cards? Well, they are usually specific to just one fast food chain and often are limited to just one or two locations of that particular chain. They retail for $10 and usually cost less than $2, so they're a great moneymaker.Offers vary by company, but they usually provide a matching main item with purchase of the same. For example, at Burger king, you might get a free hamburger. At Subway, you usually get a free soda, chips, or cookie with each sandwich purchase. The cards are limited in duration and number of uses. Usually, they are good for up to one year and restricted to roughly ten uses. Again, the offers vary by chain, so check the details closely. Participating national chains are:
