Start a Fundraiser Campaign Today!

Hi Toast Community, Carrisa here with Toast.

Want to take your fundraising efforts to the next level? Do you want to build ties with the community and raise funds for a local or national cause? Create a fundraising campaign for your cause here.

With the Fundraising Round Up feature, guests can round up their checks to a whole number, with the proceeds going to a cause/organization of the restaurant's choice. Starting today, you can turn on Round Up for on-premise transactions.

Roundup is now compatible with the Guest Facing Display and Digital Receipts (e.g., Toast Flexs, tablets, and Toast Go). You are now able to search a database of 2 million+ charitable causes to fundraise for.

What are some of the fundraisers that you’ve hosted in the past? What made them successful?

*Please note that this feature requires an upgrade to POS 2.62. Please email fundraising-support@toasttab.com to schedule an upgrade for your devices.

Is there a plan to add to printed checks as well?

Hi @rcmck, this is great question! This is on our roadmap for later this year towards the start of 2024. Please stay tuned!

How does this work in a full-service restaurant with tips? Is there an example of what the checkout would look like with the tip line? Do they round up before they add a tip?

Hi @jentooman great question! The round up is after the guest has added a tip. So the customer will add the tip first and then be prompted for round up after. You can learn more here: https://central.toasttab.com/s/article/Getting-Started-Fundraising-Round-Up-Feature

Hope this helps!
