Learn how to create and run a 50/50 Raffle, customize your cash prize percentage amount and number of winners, and see how your 50/50 Raffle will look to donors.
Hi! I'm Catie with RallyUp, and I am going to walk you through how to run a 50/50 Raffle, also known as Cash Raffles or Split-the-Pot Raffles. Now when you first log into your RallyUp account, you'll want to go to Campaigns in the left menu and then select New Campaign. And then once you're in Campaign Setup, you're going to want to select Raffle as your Campaign type. And of course, always double-check local laws and regulations to make sure you can run a Raffle. They're pretty heavily restricted, and those restrictions will differ based on what area you're in. So always double-check. Alright. And then when you get to the Raffle portion of Campaign Setup, you'll go to select your Raffle type, and you will select Cash Raffle. You'll also see Prize Raffle as an option. You can enable both in one fundraiser, but for now, I'm just gonna select Cash Raffle. And then when you're ready to add your cash prize, you'll simply scroll down to Add Cash Prize and select Create a Prize. And this will allow you to add images. You can add more than one if you want. Add a title, a description, and then this is where things get really fun. So the cash prize percentage doesn't have to be 50/50. It could be 60, 70, 25, 30, really whatever you like. And then you're also not limited in the number of winners. You can have just one winner, two, three, four. It really doesn't matter. It's just whatever is your preference. And then the prize percentage that you enter up here will simply be split evenly between all of your winners. And then once you have set up your Raffle, let's see what things look like from the donor end. So here we have a Raffle with a cash prize that is split between two winners who will be splitting 60% of the funds raised. And that amount is automatically calculated and displayed on your Campaign Page for you. You don't have to calculate that. RallyUp takes care of it. And then I've also got an example here of a 50/50 Raffle. It's more traditional. 50% of the funds raised go to one lucky winner. Again, that amount is calculated automatically. And then this is a Prize Raffle as well, so three runners-up will also get a gift card. So again, you can do both. You can just do one. RallyUp makes it easy to customize everything to fit your needs. And that is how you run a 50/50 Raffle on RallyUp. Thank you so much for joining, and I will see you in the next video!
