Families pledge a flat amount from one link, and each pledge is credited to the student who shared it. The money goes straight to your PTA’s own Stripe account.

Seller links

Every kid gets a link. Every sale gets credited.

Families share by text or QR. Orders through a child’s link land on their tally, online or at the booth.

Capped at $20 a sale

No tip prompts. A fee that stops at $20.

Zero-fee platforms stay free by asking every supporter to add a tip, usually 15% to 17% of the order. We charge your group one small fee instead, and it stops at $20, so a $500 sponsor never sees a $75 add-on.

What is UnitTally?

UnitTally is fundraising software for PTAs, schools, sports teams, bands, scout troops and nonprofits. Groups sell products, tickets and sponsorships and take donations, online and in person, and every sale is credited to the student or member who made it.

Is UnitTally free?

Not quite, and we say so up front. On the free plan, the UnitTally fee on a card sale is 2.5% + 30¢, capped at $20 a sale, plus Stripe’s card processing. Cash and check sales have no fees, and your first 10 online sales carry no UnitTally fee. Compare the free, Plus and Pro plans.

How is UnitTally different from zero-fee fundraising platforms?

Zero-fee platforms are free to your group because they ask each supporter to add a tip at checkout, usually 15% to 17% of the order. UnitTally never shows a tip prompt. Your group pays UnitTally’s small, capped fee plus Stripe’s card processing instead, and supporters can choose to cover both. Read the full comparison.

What does a $50 wreath sale cost on UnitTally?

The UnitTally fee is $1.55 and card processing is about $1.75, so your group keeps $46.70. A zero-fee platform would ask the buyer to add a tip of about $8.50 on top.

Can we track cash and check sales?

Yes. Log cash and checks in the same ledger as card sales, credited to the seller, with no fees. On the free plan, groups that only take cash and checks pay nothing.

We’re onboarding PTAs, schools, teams, scout troops and nonprofits for the 2026 season. Your first 10 online sales carry no UnitTally fee.
