Pros
I was so impressed with how easy it was to create a great-looking fundraising page for our Plant Sale. Everyone commented on how great our site looked.
The payment process is super easy to use. We really love the capabilities to have several fundraisers open for different events and being able to track each events page.
Great experience creating events, transferring funds, refunding payees and over ease of the site. I love it and recommend it to all my colleagues.
Cons
This is challenging for our PTA because our school is in a cellular dead zone, and the school is very hesitant to allow us to join their network.
Nothing at this time really. Adding pictures to the collections was a little more difficult than I expected.
We use Cheddar Up for a raffle fundraiser for a coworker, whose husband has colon cancer.

CheddarUp is a Game Changer!

Reviewed 22 days ago

CheddarUp has been a game changer for me and the events I put on. From Girl Scouts, our local high school, Elks Lodge, Little League, and work conferences. everything is super easy for me to run multiple events through several organizations. Yes, I have several different accounts with Cheddar Up. You can even read my testimonial on their website.

Pros

First, I have been using CheddarUp for years. They have listened to my concerns and recommendations on improvements, and for the most part, they did them. They have the BEST Customer Service Group.

Cons

I have one event that is quite complicated and I have to manually monitor it. I have several payment options and I wish it were smart enough to adjust the availability number as payments are selected.

Vendor response

Hi Gloria, Thanks for being such a loyal Cheddar Up supporter over the years! We love your feedback as it helps us improve our product every time. We hope you're able to continue using Cheddar Up for all of your groups for many years to come! Thanks, Stephanie

I looked for weeks and stumbled across Cheddar Up and I knew immediately it was the perfect fit, everything I was looking for!

It’s so easy to use and the ability to pass most of the fees to the purchaser without a monthly fee!

Nothing at this time really. Adding pictures to the collections was a little more difficult than I expected. More to choose from would be nice

Cancelling account without notice or call

Reviewed 9 months ago

They suddenly stopped our service, we cannot see any of the monies in the account. Not sure if they robbed us, but on first glance it looks like they did.

Pros

organization of data, payment processing under category

Cons

stopped our account without notice, no communication on what happened

Vendor response

Hi Priyanka, Our software is built for group organizers to collect payments and information from their community. Unfortunately, we couldn’t process billing for your medical services as our product features do not support this. As soon as our team discovered that it wouldn’t work for your use case, we notified you and have been working with you to ensure you receive all of your funds prior to your account closure. If you still have questions or need further assistance, please contact our support team. Thank you, Stephanie
