More Fundraising, Less Friction

Fundraising should feel empowering—not exhausting. But as more organizations make the shift online, one thing becomes clear: choosing the right online fundraising store isn’t always easy.

With hundreds of platforms, product providers, and payment options out there, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed by the options—and even easier to make a choice that doesn’t deliver results.

At Fundraising.com, we’ve helped thousands of nonprofits, schools, sports teams, and faith-based organizations navigate this process. We’ve seen what works, what doesn’t, and what actually helps groups hit their goals with less work.

This guide breaks it all down. Whether you’re brand-new to digital fundraising or looking to upgrade your current setup, we’ll show you how to launch an online fundraising store that’s simple, scalable, and aligned with your mission.

What Is an Online Fundraising Store?

At its core, an online fundraising store is a custom website where supporters can buy products or make donations on behalf of your organization.

Unlike traditional fundraisers, online stores:

  • Require no door-to-door selling
  • Handle all payments digitally
  • Are easy to share on social media, email, and text

They’re ideal for reaching supporters near and far—without needing to organize large in-person events.

Why It’s So Hard to Choose the Right Platform

Here’s the truth: most groups don’t know where to start. Between choosing a vendor, comparing product catalogs, setting up the site, and promoting it, the process can feel intimidating.

  • What if the platform is too complicated?
  • What if we can’t track sales easily?
  • What if the fees eat into our profits?

These are valid questions—and they’re exactly why Fundraising.com exists.

We created our online store program to solve these problems before they even happen.
