Submit an ideaRaiseFunds helps you choose and plan a fundraiser. Raised is our fundraising platform, where groups can run campaigns and collect product orders or donations online.
We recommend Raised where it suits the task, and links from RaiseFunds help people find it. We benefit when people go on to use our platform. Our platform comparisons are therefore not independent rankings.
The directory highlights Raised-backed product fundraisers and reviewed community ideas. It is a selected starting point, not a complete list of every supplier or platform in New Zealand.
Raised's own how it works guide explains its ordering and donation tools. Check its current pricing and payment conditions before choosing a platform. Product costs and other expenses are separate from payment fees.
Compare platforms by what you needOur planning and comparison guides link to provider pages or official guidance for claims such as published fees and requirements. A source-check date tells you when those linked details were reviewed, not that a provider has guaranteed them for your campaign.
Calculator starting values and worked budgets are examples. Estimated revenue is not a quote or guaranteed profit. Replace the assumptions with your supplier's written price, likely sales and actual costs before committing.
Community submissions go to an admin for review before publication. We can edit the details into a useful guide. Publication is not supplier accreditation, a safety certification or a promise that an idea will raise a particular amount.
Requirements can depend on your event, location and organisation. Follow the linked official guidance and confirm anything unclear with the relevant authority or provider. A fundraising checklist cannot replace that decision.
Tell us which page you were reading, what needs changing and, if you have one, a link to the current source. Please leave supporter payment details and other private information out of your message.
