Blackbaud TeamRaiser

Blackbaud TeamRaiser is a participant-based fundraising solution from Blackbaud, the software provider for the social good sector, designed to help non-profits run peer-to-peer fundraising events such as walks, runs, rides and challenges. These events depend on participants who register, set fundraising goals and ask friends and family to donate on their behalf, generating substantial revenue for many charities. Managing large numbers of participants, teams and donations, while motivating fundraisers and providing a positive experience, requires specialised technology. TeamRaiser addresses this by offering tools for event registration, personal and team fundraising pages, donation processing and participant communication. Its approach aims to maximise fundraising per participant, build long-term loyalty and improve operational efficiency, and it has been used by many large health charities and national organisations for their flagship events over many years.

Key features include configurable event registration with participant types, fees and waivers, personal and team fundraising pages with progress indicators, and tools that encourage participants to share their pages via email and social media. Mobile apps allow participants to manage fundraising, send messages and deposit offline gifts on the go, while gamification elements such as badges and leaderboards support engagement. Donation processing supports online gifts, matching gift prompts and recurring contributions, and automated email communications guide participants through the fundraising cycle. Reporting tools provide insights into registrations, fundraising performance and participant behaviour, helping organisers refine strategies. TeamRaiser operates within Blackbaud's Luminate Online platform, which also offers email marketing and donation forms, and integrates with Blackbaud CRM and other constituent databases. The solution is cloud-hosted. Target customers include large and mid-sized non-profits, health charities, hospitals and national organisations running multi-city participant events. Pricing is quote-based and not published in this listing, and no free trial or free version is indicated.
