Running a charity bib program means every spot matters, and choosing the right participants can make or break your revenue goals. This month's biggest release is RegFlow, a new application management system built specifically for that challenge, alongside more control over campaign headers and expanded flexibility for fundraising commitments.
RegFlow: Application Management for Charity Bib Programs
When bibs are limited, who you give them to matters. Award it to the wrong person, and you'll be scrambling to cover the gap weeks before race day. Award it to the right one, and you've secured a committed fundraiser who'll return year after year.
Select Your Strongest Fundraisers
Finding interested runners isn't the challenge. It's identifying who genuinely wants to fundraise versus who just wants race entry. Pledge It lets you collect applications, capture athlete stories, and rank applicants so you can see who your best candidates are. When you're ready, select your top choices and they'll automatically receive an email with their unique invite code and onboarding instructions. Your dashboard tracks all available and claimed bibs in real-time, so you always know exactly where you stand.
Track Fundraiser Progress in Real-Time
Every athlete who drops out or fails to meet their minimum costs you money for your mission. Real-time monitoring tools give you complete visibility into every fundraiser's progress, so you can intervene early and protect your investment. Set multiple fundraising deadlines tailored to each race (50% by 60 days out, 100% by race day), and the system automatically tracks who's on pace. Your live dashboard shows each athlete's progress at a glance, while automated messages celebrate milestones. When someone falls behind a deadline, you'll see it instantly and can send targeted support or reassign their bib to a waitlisted athlete.
You shouldn't need to export data and build charts to know if your fundraisers are actually fundraising. See who's stuck, who's thriving, and who needs a nudge, all in one place, updated in real-time.
Take Control of Your Campaign Header
Your campaign header is the first thing supporters see, and those first impressions make an impact. You can now customize three call-to-action buttons in your campaign header, whether that's "Get Tickets," "Donate Today," "Become a Sponsor," or "Check out our Silent Auction." You choose the language, you choose the actions, and your supporters easily find what they need to support your mission.
More Flexibility for Managing Fundraising Commitments
If you're organizing endurance-based P2P fundraising events and using minimum fundraising commitments to ensure participants fundraise a required amount, you'll find new updates to improve your commitment management experience. Instead of being limited to one commitment charge with a single deadline, you now have full control over when and how often you collect on commitment charges.
If you have a 50% fundraising deadline and need everyone up to speed by a certain date, you can charge fundraisers for 50% of their commitment and still charge them again when the full and final deadline comes around. You set the rules. Pledge It gives you the tools to enforce them.
What This All Means for Your Programs
This month's updates give you more control at every stage: who gets in, what they see first, and how accountability gets enforced along the way. Running a charity bib program, guiding supporters through your campaign header, or managing fundraising commitments on your own schedule all get the same benefit here—less manual tracking, more control over the outcome.
