Frequently Asked Questions

Creating a raffle and have some questions? No worries, here are the most frequently asked questions people ask!

What is a digital raffle?

Raffles are a great way to generate revenue and profit on items especially if raffle items have already been donated. A raffle is a way of raising money by selling a number of tickets to supporters at a set price which gives supporters a chance to win a prize.

The more tickets a supporter buys, the higher their chance of winning a prize.

Raffles have traditionally been run manually by taking cash payments from supporters and by providing paper tickets. Nowadays as technology evolves, people prefer to purchase raffle tickets online or through their mobile device and this has its benefits for your organisation! Running an online raffle through a tool like SupporterHub's raffle feature allows you to reach a broader audience and sell more tickets. It also takes the majority of the manual administrative tasks out of selling tickets and taking payments as it happens automatically through the platform.

How many digital raffle prizes can I have?

There is no limit to the number of prizes that you can have in your raffle.

Can we offer different raffle packages?

Yes, you can. At SupporterHub we encourage you to create different packages to encourage supporters to buy more tickets. You can create discounted ticket bundles to encourage supporters to buy more tickets.

How do raffle participants get their raffle tickets?

Once your supporter has registered and paid for their raffle ticket, they will receive an email to the email address they provided at registration with confirmation of their purchase and their raffle ticket.

How are raffle winners notified?

Once the raffle is drawn, the winner will be notified via email and SMS. The message will state the raffle prize that they have won!

Are raffle tickets tax deductible?

No, unfortunately, raffle tickets are not tax deductible, only charitable donations are.
