### "User-Friendly Platform With Strong Fundraising Tools"

November 24, 2025

5.0

Overall, my experience with Pledge It has been very positive. The platform is user-friendly, engaging for supporters, and helpful for managing our campaigns.

Pros

I appreciated how intuitive the Pledge It platform was for both staff and supporters. It made managing campaigns straightforward and created a seamless experience for donors.

Cons

The only challenge so far has been getting fully comfortable with the reporting features, since we’re still learning our way around that area.

It’s been a good year. We had three successful campaigns, and I look forward to next year being even better. Working with \[sensitive content hidden\] has been great and he’s super responsive.

Pros

Customer service, easy to use and navigate, easy to support users

Cons

I don’t have anything, as it’s all just new learning

### "Great Product! "

November 4, 2022

5.0

Pros

I liked that this was user friendly and easy to set-up. The reporting was very straight forward and collected all the information that was needed. I also loved that those who created a pledge knew when they were going to be billed. The reminder emails were also great for the golfers reminding them to close their page.

Cons

I wish there were other processors besides Stripe.

### "MT football "

October 7, 2025

5.0

Excellent experience, as usual. \[sensitive content hidden\] is our contact person, and she is excellent. She responds promptly and makes everything run smoothly.

Pros

We have been using Pledge It for many years now and it's our only fundraising method. It is so easy as \[sensitive content hidden\] sets everything up and our players follow the instructions. The ease at which the whole campaign runs is the best part. We wouldn't use any other fundraiser, and I have shared Pledge It with other organizations in and outside our school.

Cons

I really don't have any complaints, nor can I think of any real cons. We have used other fundraising platforms, and Pledge It is the best.

### "Great platform and a terrific team"

March 5, 2025

5.0

Pros

We used Pledge It to launch a "polar plunge" peer to peer fundraiser in Miami Beach, where the winter water temperatures are 78°! We raised more than $40,000 with no hassles and at a very low cost. Love it! I have been running peer to peer fundraisers on multiple platforms for more than 10 years - and this is simply the best I have found. I strongly recommend it to non-profits for its ease of use, reliability. and spectacular campaign and tech support. It is a great platform and a terrific team.

Cons

Honestly, I wish we started using it sooner.

Overall a very positive experience and would recommend it for other fundraisers. The support and guidance from the staff and the ease of use for the donors make this a valuable package.

Pros

I appreciated the support from the staff and their reliable/timely communication. They were professional and very accommodating for my fundraiser.

Cons

The UI and navigating through the pages were at times confusing. However, the staff was very helpful in guiding me through using the software.

Overall, it is a very good product and very user-friendly.

Pros

Pledge It is easy to use. Suzanne's support was very helpful in getting the event (campaign page) to look perfect.

May 19, 2023

Overall experience was great! Loved how user friendly it was and simple to navigate.

Pros

Pledge It was great and so easy to use! Loved how simple it was for participants to sign up, great to pull reports on fundraisers, loved being able to send emails out through the platform. Excited to use this again for our next event.

Cons

Would love to be able to include an embedded video and picture in the email. Would also be great to have a pop up window right after people register with next steps.

### "Wonderful fundraising platform with excellent customer support!"

June 17, 2022

5.0

We love the PledgeIt platform and model. The customer support can't be beaten and we enjoy working with the team to help us maximize the platform and our fundraising goals. We are a small non-profit with unique fundraising challenges and the PledgeIt team has helped us to tailor the platform to meet our needs when others could not. We have tried several other platforms before finding PledgeIt and we have been happy ever since. Couldn't recommend this platform and team more.

Pros

The ease of set-up and user functionality. It allows our non-profit to easily count multiple metrics at the same time eg: dollars and steps. Reports are easy to pull and segment.

Cons

We would love to see more fitness app integrations.

Reason for choosing Pledge It

PledgeIT had superior customer service and the platform was more user-friendly for our donors. We appreciate having the ability to measure several metrics at once as well as more fitness app integration at a better price point.

Our overall experience using Pledge It over the last few year has been great ! Easy to use and build out events.

### "Great Results and Customer Service with Pledge It!"

June 11, 2024

5.0

We are very happy to have made the switch to Pledge It this year. There is no shortage of choices when it comes to registration platforms but Pledge It works to make the transition as easy as possible.

Pros

Their customer service is exceptional. All of my questions were answered quickly during the initial setup phase and then throughout the following months during registration and fundraising.

Cons

Does any system do exactly what you need it to do in exactly the way you want? No, but the team at Pledge It listens to our concerns and strives to make the platform work in the best way possible for us.

### "Excellent Value, Common Sense Choice for Nonprofits"

August 5, 2022

5.0

Customer service is friendly and responsive. They truly care about the success of your event and organization. They go the extra mile to find solutions and suggest ways to make ideas even better. They truly are team players. This combined with a durable and robust product makes it a win-win for everyone.

Pros

Pledge It delivered every feature we desired and then some. It gave us a lot of options and flexibility to produce the style of event we wants, with evolving ideas to improve fundraiser and donor engagement. The exceptional value of the product, combined with its high level of quality and functionality made it an easy, common-sense choice for our nonprofit to use.

Cons

There were no real "cons" just some minor challenges we needed to overcome with unique solutions and workarounds. But everything we needed was addressed quickly and correctly to give us an ideal user experience.

Reason for choosing Pledge It

The other products we considered were very expensive and offered far fewer features than Pledge It. Their sales team was not invested in our overall success, but just wanted to sell a product.

August 25, 2023

5.0

Overall, using Pledge It has been a great experience. We switched from another platform and the switch was seamless, plus this platform is miles better for our needs.

Pros

Pledge It is a cost-effective, user-friendly option for our annual peer-to-peer fundraiser.

Cons

There are some minor tweaks we'd love to see implemented to help our event, but we have discussed them all with our Pledge It representatives who have been incredibly receptive and easy to reach. We look forward to continued improvements!

### "Review from Athletes Soul"

November 2, 2022

5.0

So far, we've had a great experience with PledgeIt. Not only the system is super easy to use but the team and customer service is great. We found them quick and efficient. They are also willing to take the time to understand your organization, your needs, and brainstorm with you.

Pros

PledgeIt is super easy to use. The set is fast and intuitive and there are many functionalities available. We did a peer-to-peer fundraising campaign, and it was a great success. Registering fundraisers was smooth and they found the software easy to use. The software did everything we needed and with no additional costs to our organization which is a big plus compared to others. It is also much easier to use than GoFundMe and the payments are made regularly instead of at the end of the campaign.

Cons

Maybe an integration with WhatsApp and the ability to create a video from the fundraiser page instead of uploading a pre-recorded video or bringing it from social.

Reason for choosing Pledge It

It is cheaper for not-profit. It is easier to use. The interface is more modern and attractive for both donors and fundraisers. It is integrated with Strava.We receive personalized customer service.

May 15, 2023

Wonderful! It was easy to work with and any questions I ever had, \[sensitive content hidden\] was amazing in providing me with answers and solutions.

Pros

I loved how easy it was to navigate around the site, both on the front end and the back end. There was a place for everything to give participants all the information they needed.

Cons

There was confusion among registrants about their name not appearing on team pages due to opting out of fundraising. However, I think with this being a new platform for us this year, it will be better next year since people will be used to the site more.

### "Great Platform for Nonprofit"

June 5, 2022

5.0

Pledge It is a great platform for first-time fundraisers, and for future fundraising now that we are more familiar with the features and tools. Most importantly, Pledge It has no fees which makes it even more valuable for nonprofit organizations. On a personal level, working with \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] was truly wonderful and fun! He offered so many great ideas and his "office" door was always open for questions and help. Looking forward to working with Pledge It on our next fundraising event.

Pros

Ease of use. Ability to create different layouts, categories, offers a more personal site for the user. Reminder features, email templates for donation, welcome, thank you, etc.

Cons

Would have to go to each fundraiser's page to remove "featured" activities, instead of on the "featured" layout. No photo attachment when emailing groups. Cannot email to an individual fundraiser or donator.
