For Restaurants

Percentage night, dine-and-donate, round-up at the table

The classic "X% of tonight's sales go to the local school" night, but with auto-tally instead of end-of-night arithmetic. QR table tents let diners donate directly. Round-up at point of sale rolls everything up. The school PTA, the youth team, the firehouse fund: each gets a check via Stripe instead of a paper handoff.

Three restaurant fundraiser formats ScanRaise powers

Percentage night. "20% of all sales tonight to Lincoln Elementary PTA." Diners scan a table-tent QR, the QR opens a "donate the round-up" page that splits at end of night. Restaurant matches the total via cart payment after close.
Dine-and-donate. Patrons book a reservation through the regular booking system, the restaurant donates a flat per-cover fee to a chosen charity. Diners can add personal pledges via the QR code on the tent.
Round-up at POS. Square / Toast / Clover POS integration: diner's check rounds up to the next dollar; the cents land in a daily ScanRaise sponsorship pool. End-of-night, restaurant allocates to the chosen beneficiary.

Restaurant-side workflow

Pre-approve a beneficiary shortlist. Local school, youth team, firehouse fund, food bank. Patrons can only donate to the shortlist; the restaurant never gets surprised by a controversial charity.
Print QR table tents. ScanRaise generates the print-ready PDF. Restaurant prints, places at every table.
Run the night. Patrons scan the QR, pick a beneficiary, donate. Live total visible if you want one ("we're at $1,247 raised tonight!").
Settle up. End of night, the restaurant either runs the cart-mode checkout to match the night's percentage commitment, or just lets patron donations route directly. Receipts are auto-emailed.

Outside-scope guardrail

By Design

No tip-replacement, no employee payouts

ScanRaise routes donations to Stripe Connect accounts (real organizations), not to individuals or employee pools. Restaurants asking "can we use this to give cash to staff" get directed elsewhere; "can we direct the night's percentage to the local school's PTA" is exactly what we're built for. Stripe Connect destination accounts are the only valid payout target.
