How it works

A tool for asking. Not a place your money sits.

FundFast is its own app that your team logs into. But it is not a payment processor and it is not a middleman. Donations move from the supporter directly into your organization's account. FundFast handles the asking, the reminders, the thank yous, and the tracking.

Step by step

From setup to funded

  1. 01

    Your organization sets up the campaign

    A coach or administrator creates the team, sets the goal and the close date, and connects the organization's own giving account. That account is where every dollar lands.

  2. 02

    Each athlete adds twenty real contacts

    Family, neighbors, coaches, teachers, church, family friends. Typed in by the athlete. Nothing imported, scraped, or bought. These are people who already know them.

  3. 03

    FundFast writes the ask

    Each contact gets a personalized message with the athlete's own link. The athlete can edit it or send it as is.

  4. 04

    The athlete sends it from their own phone

    One tap opens iMessage, SMS, or WhatsApp with the message loaded. The athlete presses send. All twenty in under ten minutes.

  5. 05

    The gift goes straight to the organization

    The link opens your giving page. The money moves from the supporter to your school or nonprofit account. FundFast is never in the middle of it.

  6. 06

    Everything is tracked live

    Who has been asked, who has given, who still needs a follow up, and exactly where the team stands against the goal, updating in real time.

The message sequence

Three asks, then a thank you

Every message is written for the athlete and sent by the athlete, one person at a time. They can edit any of it before it goes out.

Ask 1: the originalLaunch day

Hey Aunt Rachel, it's Malik. Our Northgate Prep Falcons team is raising money for the season and I'm asking 20 people who mean a lot to me. Any amount helps, and it goes straight to the school. Here's my page: fundfast.app/falcons/malik

Ask 2: the follow upOptional, a few days later

Hi Aunt Rachel, Malik again, just circling back on my team fundraiser. No pressure at all, but if you're able to chip in it would mean a lot: fundfast.app/falcons/malik

Ask 3: final callOptional, before the deadline

Aunt Rachel, last call from Malik. Our fundraiser closes this week and I didn't want you to miss the chance to be part of it. Thanks either way! fundfast.app/falcons/malik

Thank you: one tapThe moment a gift lands

Aunt Rachel, thank you so much for the $100. Seriously. It goes right to our season and it means a lot that you backed me. From Malik

Where the money goes

Straight into your account

When a supporter taps an athlete's link, they land on your organization's giving page. The gift is processed into your account, receipted by you, and credited to that athlete inside FundFast so the team totals stay accurate. FundFast never holds, disburses, or takes a cut of donor dollars.

  • No donor money held by FundFast
  • No waiting on a payout
  • Your receipts, your donor records
  • Athlete credit tracked automatically
Who it's for

Right now FundFast is built for teams, school programs, club teams, and athletic departments raising money for a season. Each team has a roster, and each athlete has their own profile, their own supporters, and their own asks.
