If Your Community Shops Local, You Qualify

🏫

Schools & PTAs

Elementary, middle, high school. Turn your parent community into a year-round funding machine.

Youth Sports Teams

Football, soccer, baseball, dance. Fund uniforms, travel, and equipment without selling anything.

Nonprofits

Any registered cause. Your supporters shop locally and your mission gets funded automatically.

🏆

Clubs & Organizations

Booster clubs, scout troops, community groups. If you have a community of supporters, this works.

The Old Way Is Broken

Traditional Fundraising Is Exhausting. You Know It. We Fixed It.

01

The Bake Sale Trap

Car washes. Cookie dough. Wrapping paper catalogs. You run the same fundraisers every year, sell to the same people, and wonder why participation drops a little more each time.

After fees, you keep maybe 40 cents on the dollar. Your volunteers are tired. Your supporters feel guilty every time they see you coming.

There is a better way. And it requires almost no work.

02

Volunteer Burnout Is Real

Every organization has a core group of 5 or 6 people who do everything. They set up, sell, collect money, count cash, chase people down for forms.

They burn out. They step back. And suddenly the people who replaced them are burning out too. The fundraising wheel never stops spinning... but it never gains speed either.

What if your fundraiser ran itself? Automatically. Always.

03

Seasonal Money for Year-Round Needs

Most fundraisers have a start date and an end date. Then you're done until next season. But your needs don't take a season off... field trips, equipment, supplies, programs.

A burst of cash twice a year doesn't solve a year-round funding gap. You need money coming in steadily, in the background, while your community just lives their life.

LocalVIP is the fundraiser that never ends and never asks for help.

How the Money Gets to You

Simple. Automatic. Ongoing.

Your community doesn't have to do anything extra. They just shop at local businesses they already love. Here's what happens next.

1

Community Member Shops

Someone in your community uses the LocalVIP app at a participating local business. They pay normally, plus get cash back.

2

Business Pays a 10% Fee

The business pays LocalVIP a 10% success fee, only after the customer pays. There is zero upfront cost to anyone.

3

LocalVIP Shares 75% Back

LocalVIP keeps 25% and returns 75% of every fee to the community: referrers who grew the network, and causes their shoppers chose.

4

Your Org Gets Its Share

If your school or organization was selected as a cause, your share lands automatically. No invoices. No reminders. Just money arriving.

75%

Of LocalVIP's Gross Income Goes Back to the Community

We built LocalVIP on the principle that local commerce should fund local community. Three-quarters of every dollar we earn flows back to the people who made it possible: the shoppers, the referrers, and the causes they care about. Including yours.

The LocalVIP Difference

Set It Once. Fund It Forever.

Registering your organization takes about 5 minutes. After that, your job is done. Share your link once with your community. Encourage them to download the app and select your cause. Then step back.

As your community shops at participating local businesses, every qualifying transaction adds to your balance. Month after month. Season after season. Without another bake sale, car wash, or catalog form in sight.

The more your network grows, the more you earn. When your community refers new shoppers to LocalVIP, and those shoppers refer others, your organization benefits from the activity across the entire network.

One setup. Ongoing funding. Zero maintenance.

What Organizations Are Saying

Schools, teams, and nonprofits sharing their experience with LocalVIP fundraising.

Elementary School PTA
★★★★★
"We've done cookie dough, restaurant nights, and gift wrap catalogs. LocalVIP is the first fundraiser that actually runs itself. Parents shop where they already shop, and money just... arrives. Our PTA president called it 'the fundraiser that requires zero guilt trips.'"
Sandra M.
PTA Treasurer, Riverside Elementary
Youth Soccer Club
★★★★★
"Our club has 200 kids across 14 teams. We used to do one big fundraiser in the fall and hope it covered everything. With LocalVIP, every family that downloads the app is basically fundraising for us all year. Game-changer for travel budget."
James R.
Director, Westside United Soccer Club
Community Nonprofit
★★★★★
"Our donors were tired of being asked for money. LocalVIP gave us something different to offer: 'Support us by shopping somewhere you already go.' That's a message people actually say yes to. And they keep saying yes, every week."

Questions

Answers for Organizations

Everything you need to know before you register.

Any school, PTA, youth sports team, nonprofit, civic organization, club, or community group can register. If you have a community of supporters who live and shop locally, you qualify. Registration is free and takes about 5 minutes.

It depends on how many community members participate and how often they shop at participating businesses. There is no cap on earnings. The more people in your network who select your cause and shop locally through LocalVIP, the more your organization earns. Results vary by organization size and community engagement. LocalVIP does not guarantee specific earnings amounts.

Your only job after setup is to share your unique link with your community once. After that, the system runs automatically. Every time a community member shops at a participating local business and has your organization selected as their cause, a portion flows to you. No events, no selling, no collecting money, no reminders to send.

Donations accumulate in your organization's LocalVIP account as qualifying purchases happen. You can withdraw funds once you reach the minimum balance threshold. There are no monthly fees or percentage deductions from your organization's share. We'll walk you through the payout setup when you register.

LocalVIP is expanding city by city. When you register, you're locking in your organization's spot and helping build momentum in your market. Early organizations in each city tend to benefit most as we launch and the business network grows. We'll notify you when your market goes live with full business participation.

Each shopper selects the cause they want to support. They can change their selected cause at any time in the app. The portion that flows to causes is based on which organization each shopper has selected when they make a purchase. So growing your community of supporters who specifically select your cause is the key to maximizing your organization's earnings.
