How rewards work

Rewards are prizes students earn as they raise more: say, a wristband at $25, a T-shirt at $50 and a medal at $100. They're included in the Premium plan.

Earning rewards

• Each reward has an amount. A student earns it once their total for the event reaches that amount.
• Rewards are cumulative: a student who has raised $60 has earned both the wristband and the T-shirt.
• Cash and check donations count, as well as online ones.
• Earning is worked out automatically from each student's total, so there's nothing to update as donations come in.
• Only active participants are tracked.

Handing them out

The Hand-out report shows who has earned what and hasn't received it yet. When you hand a reward over, mark it as given, and the report keeps a record of who marked it and when. See Using the hand-out report.

If a student's total goes down

Rarely, a total can drop, for example after a refund. A reward that's already been given stays recorded, and the report flags it as No longer qualifies so you're aware. Nobody's record is deleted.
