For Band Programs & Show Choirs

New uniforms cost $40,000. Raise it without selling wrapping paper.

Every band student or performer gets their own QR code. The whole community chips in — tracked per student, per section, per ensemble. No products. No hassle.

Sound familiar?

Wrapping paper and candy bar sales are embarrassing. Students hate selling overpriced products door-to-door. So do their parents.

Competition travel is expensive. Bus charters, hotels, entry fees — it adds up to five figures fast for a 100-member marching band.

Instrument repair and replacement costs are brutal. One sousaphone costs more than most families' entire fundraising total.

Tracking 100+ students' fundraising is chaos. Paper forms, cash envelopes, and a treasurer who's ready to quit. RaiseRight gift cards barely help.

Snap! Raise takes 20%. Fund-Team takes 5%. On a $40,000 uniform drive, that's $2,000-$8,000 that should have gone to your program.

ScanRaise fixes all of it

Each student gets a QR code to share with family, neighbors, and community. No products to sell or deliver.

Donors scan and give in 30 seconds. Credit card, Apple Pay, Google Pay. No app required.

Live leaderboard by student, section, or grade. Competition drives results. Band kids love a scoreboard.

Sell concert tickets, spirit wear, and raffle baskets from the same platform. One login for everything.

Just 2.5%. Raise $40,000 and keep $39,000. That's $7,000 more than Snap! Raise.
