For ice cream shops

Ice cream fundraising software for shops and creameries

Run an online ice cream fundraiser using your own flavors, prices, and brand. The Giving Scoop gives shops and creameries campaign pages, online ordering, seller tracking, and fulfillment reports for school, team, and nonprofit partnerships.

Why ice cream shops run fundraisers

A fundraising program turns your freezer into a community channel. Schools, sports teams, and nonprofits already ask local shops for scoop nights and pint sales. The shops that scale those partnerships treat fundraising as a product line — with a public page, online checkout, and clean payouts — not a one-off favor.

The Giving Scoop is fundraising software for that workflow. You keep your brand, your flavors, and your fulfillment. Organizations get seller links. You get a dashboard instead of a clipboard.

What the shop actually operates

  • A branded company page where schools start a campaign
  • Per-fundraiser storefronts with your catalog and pickup instructions
  • Seller QR codes and unique links so boosters can track who sold what
  • Stripe checkout — no collecting checks from twenty classrooms
  • Automatic splits between the shop and the organization
  • Fulfillment reports by flavor, seller, and organization

How to launch an online ice cream fundraiser

  1. Create your shop account. Sign up free, add your logo, and connect Stripe for payouts.
  2. Upload flavors and prices. Build a fundraiser catalog with photos, sizes, and pint prices.
  3. Invite a school or team. Each organization gets a dashboard, sellers, and a live campaign page.
  4. Families order online. Supporters pay by card. Seller links and QR codes let you track attributed orders.
  5. Fulfill and get paid. Export packing lists, then receive automatic revenue splits after the campaign.

Plan the program before inviting your first school

  • Choose the flavors, sizes, prices, and product information your shop will offer.
  • Agree with the organizer on campaign dates, the revenue-sharing terms, and who answers supporter questions.
  • Set a packing and pickup plan, including frozen storage and a process for orders not collected on time.
  • Decide how the shop and organization will review order reports after the campaign.

The software supports the workflow; your shop still decides what it can produce and fulfill. Start with a campaign that fits your team and freezer capacity.

Choose software for your shop’s own fundraising program

Compare the actual program, not just the product category. Ask any provider who supplies the product, how supporters order, what seller tracking is available, and who handles pickup or delivery. With The Giving Scoop, the participating ice cream shop supplies its own catalog and agrees on fulfillment with the organization.

Shop FAQ

It is a platform that lets a creamery run school and nonprofit product fundraisers online: branded pages, pint ordering, seller tracking, and automatic payouts instead of paper forms and spreadsheets.

There is no monthly fee. Shops pay a 1% platform fee plus standard Stripe processing (typically 2.9% + $0.30) only when an order is paid.

No. You sell your own flavors. The Giving Scoop is software for your catalog, orders, and payouts — not a national ice cream brand taking your product mix.

You get a public company page you can share. Share it with PTAs, coaches, and nonprofit organizers so they can learn about your program and discuss a campaign with you.
