We use the OneCause platform to run our online auction. This platform allows us to conduct our auction with online biddings and allows us to reach a wide array of bidders from across the nation.
  • Great customer service
  • Auction format easy to understand
  • Auction format is easy for patrons to use
  • Lower the price of auction package
  • Lower the credit card fees
  • Provide several different banking options
Have recommended it to many colleagues about the software and how easy it is to use. Several colleagues have mentioned they went with OneCause over other auction platforms because they felt the end looked professional and easy to use as a bidder.

We use OneCause for our annual benefit. It’s a one-stop shop for selling tickets, sponsorships, donations, as well as hosting our online silent auction. It’s been a great help because it can easily collect payment information, allows us to text message donors, and easily allow auction item donors to upload initial item info to the site. It also has several preset reports to help with pulling data when needed. It also helps us with assigning seating and with registration and check in at the event. We’re also able to creat promo codes to help with any special ticketing situations that we need to deploy.
  • Online auction donation and listing for bidding
  • Ticket and table sales
  • Custom page creation
  • Registration and day of check in
  • It doesn’t allow you to customize the design of your link. When you post your link on Facebook, it’s branded for OneCause not for your event.
  • It doesn’t directly talk to our database The Raisers Edge
  • It doesn’t allow international donors to sign up
Well suited for a gala or benefit whether virtual or in person. You can do seating in the app or just regular check in. Online auctions also work well on this platform. Item donors can submit the info for their item easily, and uploading pictures and descriptions is pretty straightforward.

We use OneCause as our p2p fundraising platform for our special events and initiatives. It is very user-friendly, and we have had a wonderful response from our constituents that say it is much easier to raise money than with our previous platform.
  • Facebook integration
  • Simplifies the registration process
  • Staff can create campaigns on their own easily
  • Their support staff is incredible
  • Adding an umbrella function for corporations with multiple departments participating in events or multiple locations, so all of their fundraisings can show a grand total and how much each individual group has raised.
Their customer service team is incredible. If you have a question or need assistance, they are quick to respond or send a video showing you how to solve your issue. They also answer the helpline. I've worked with many platforms over the last 18 years, and OneCause is by far my favorite to work with on the back end, in addition to not having to handhold participants through the registration process. It is very easy to use, and many of our constituents who are not tech-savvy have had tons of success and positive feedback on the new platform.

Two of our committees use OneCause for fundraising auctions -- we've used it for 13 auctions to date, including a few virtual actions during COVID. The auction software we used prior to OneCause did not offer mobile bidding, which is an expectation for auction fundraisers in our area and has been well-received by our auction attendees.
  • Customer service is outstanding.
  • The software is easy to use by those setting up the auction.
  • The software the bidders see on their devices is user friendly.
  • [Redacted] sent an email on 10.21.2020 both the Mobile Bidding solution and the Virtual Event Center for a special price. I responded that I was interested but was never contacted.
  • When we resigned our contract for our 4th year of service, I got an introductory message like we were new customers. I sent an email to [redacted] to make sure everything is in order and never heard back
  • I wish the credit card swipers had connection options and worked with non-Apple products -- usb-c, lightning, usb, etc.
OneCause is well suited for fundraising auctions that use mobile bidding, for taking one-time donations, and for recognizing donors and sponsors. It's been appropriate for all our auctions. We've used text2give once and it worked well but we don't have a lot of experience in that area.

We use OneCause to manage our annual dinner and auction, which, as a small non-profit, is our largest fundraiser of the year. Bidpal through OneCause allowed us to shift our entire auction online and to a virtual format during COVID, and we're excited to try out the in-person module as well at next spring's event.
  • Allows users to bid on items anywhere in the world through their smartphone or computer
  • Integrates attendee data seamlessly with other fundraising software such as Raiser's Edge
  • Allows organization to custom build their auction website through their module
  • Easily collects donations and transfers them to your organization's financial accounts
  • When building a custom page, adding images and video is a tedious and cumbersome process
OneCause is well suited for in-person or online fundraising events and is the perfect platform for any auction. As an organization, we have not yet explored their other options, but their Bidpal software allowed us to shift our annual auction online, increasing revenue and saving both staff and constituent time.

We use OneCause to manage our silent auction for a yearly event. We needed a comprehensive package that can manage everything from supporter registration/communication to secure payment/bid management to auction package/raffle administration. We also needed a robust customer support system to ensure the event always goes off smoothly. OneCause does all of this and more.
  • Excellent Customer Support
  • Painless Payment Managment
  • Comprehensive Auction Management
  • Wanted to be able to manually add gifts to a fund appeal (at least in our package)
  • Wish we had the ability to add more polish to our auction page and scoreboard ourselves (not have to pay OneCause to do it for us)
  • Would like to have the set-up of a new event to be more intuitive.
The OneCause auction platform works well for events of seemingly varying sizes (we are a mid-sized organization, but it seems to scale well). You can run a variety of things within the platform (live auction, silent auction, fund appeal, raffle, etc.), but one should be aware that there are limits to the software and we were forced to worked around these limitations.

We use OneCause for our Silent Auction and Fundraising Donations for our annual Gala and events throughout the year. We also like that we can create a landing page that is customizable for our event to have a website directly to our auction and fundraising. This allows us to have a larger donor reach and also is secure for our user's information.
  • CUSTOMER SERVICE!
  • User friendly for bidders and donations!
  • Great reports for tracking.
  • I genuinely can't think of anything I'd suggest improving.
OneCause is VERY well suited for any organization that needs organized fundraising. It's great for organizations who need a wide reach with the ability to have a user-friendly, secure online bidding donation portal. It is well suited if you are not very tech savvy as their customer service will help you each step of the way.

We use OneCause every year for our annual auction fundraiser. This software helps us to run a large auction (over 350 items) and track our attendees, donors, and bidders. Our bidders have an easy online bidding process that is enjoyable for them while also helping us to raise more money through this event. Our auction has grown in the amount raised thanks to the ease and robust features of this auction software.
  • Easy online bidding process for our participants (especially using the older software).
  • Detailed tracking and organization for our auction staff to manage everything in one place.
  • Excellent and proactive customer service in the months leading up to the event and in-person at the event itself.
  • They rolled out new bidding software that we used in 2022, which was not good. It was hard for our bidders to use and hard for our staff to use to run the event. We switched back to the "old" software for our 2023 event, and that was much better.
  • There are just a few minor improvements we would like to see in the "old" software: better quality picture options for the auction items and the ability to "round up" with a donation during online checkout.
If you want an easy and user-friendly online bidding software, then the "old" software from OneCause is a great choice. It will engage your bidders and participants and help you to run a smooth event. If you have a new or inexperienced team running the event, the customer service from OneCause will be very helpful to get them up to speed. They have extensive help articles and are always available to answer specific questions. We've used the software for 5 years, so we don't need as much help now, but the customer service when we do need help is still excellent. The ability to have an on-site representative at our event has always been a huge help and relief. The newer software that OneCause rolled out in 2022 was built to do a lot more than just Auctions, and we found it to be lacking in the auction functionality. If you're just doing an online auction, then the "old" OneCause software is probably a better choice. Also, this software is not the cheapest option. We pay around $3,000 - $4,000 per year to use this software at our event (includes an on-site representative). It's money well worth it for us as it's helped our Auction to raise over $100,000 each year, but if you have a smaller fundraising goal, spending this much on software may not be worthwhile.

We use OneCause for some of our fundraiser, including those with ticket sales or a silent auction component. We did not have an auction software platform that we were happy with, so OneCause was an ideal solution when we starting seeking a new provider.
  • Great customer service so that is responsive to questions or issues
  • Easy platform to process donations and payments with quick turnaround of finances
  • Easy to learn and use platform that allowed us to build out a robust and diverse silent auction
  • We wish the software was more conducive to a hybrid auction
  • The on-site assistance did not provide an upgrade to our own staff
  • We would like the ability to showcase multiple photos on auction descriptions
OneCause is well suited to large fundraising events for ticket sales, silent auctions, or other fundraising components.

OneCause is not the solution if you do not want to conduct your auction online in which guests need to use their phones to bid.

Turnstone Center for Children and Adults with Disabilities is a non-profit in Northeastern Indiana that uses OneCause as our only platform for all digital fundraising processes. OneCause makes it so easy for us to create impactful fundraising campaigns, sell tickets online to fundraising events, host live and silent auctions, and gather donations from across the world.
  • Simplify the online donation processes
  • Create impactful fundraising campaigns
  • Host events of all types (virtual, in-person, and hybrid)
  • Take payment options such as Apple Pay, Paypal, etc.
  • OneCause could have better integration with donor databases
  • I wish all of their fundraising platforms worked together. (Peer2Peer, the old event ticketing platform, Text2Give & their new event platform)
Turnstone would highly recommend OneCause for all digital fundraising needs. It has allowed us to host fantastic events, both in-person and virtual, with ease because of their ticketing system, auction capabilities and virtual streaming options. OneCause also allowed us to pivot during the COVID-19 pandemic and place a huge emphasis on our digital fundraising strategy. Their Peer2Peer platform allowed our supporters from across the country to create pages and ask their friends and family members to consider donating to Turnstone. We have steadily increased our new donor numbers and fully transitioned into the digital fundraising world. So many people have been able to come alongside Turnstone in supporting people with disabilities because of OneCauses' intuitive and easy to use fundraising software.

We began using OneCause for our text to donate a few years ago. Recently we found that we needed a better software program to run our fundraising events. We were seeking one that could encompass all of our needs that surrounded several types of events ie: Gala, 5k, Chili Cook off and so many more. I knew fairly quickly that OneCause was going to be a great fit just because of the level of customer service that was displayed not only right away but through the entire onboarding process and throughout the first event. If you can imagine all the features that you could possibly need to run pretty much any type of event that is exactly what this software offers. We call it the "All in One-Cause" Because between the upbeat, friendly and super helpful staff to the product itself I would highly recommend OneCause for all your fundraising needs! Features include: Day of event support, Silent auction, raffle tickets, table assignments, easy check in experience, a truly seamless process, and so much more!
  • Customer Support
  • Same day Event Support
  • User friendly software
  • they thought of all the details
  • I don't have anything at this time

We use OneCause to support the implementation and facilitation of our two annual fundraising events--our golf outing and gala. For the golf outing, OneCause helps us manage sponsorships and ticketing, as well as the sale of fixed-price packages. For our gala, we use OneCause for ticketing, sponsorships, fixed-price package sales, auctions, raffles, and more. Most recently, we have started using the new platform, which I'm very impressed with. I think the event site I can create with the new platform is more inviting and even easier to navigate than the previous product. And I love the new options, including allowing guests to check themselves in or let us know if they will pick up auction items the night of the event or at another time.
  • One-on-one and recorded training opportunities to learn how to use the platform
  • Innovates to make the platform easy for staff and guests to use and interact with
  • Customer services is knowledgeable and responsive
  • Salesforce integration
  • An "about the organization" section on the platform
OneCause is wonderful for facilitating in-person, hybrid, and virtual fundraising events.

In the past, we used OneCause for our major banquets. This year, we are using them for smelling banquets, as well. It helps us organize the flow and planning for the event. The benefit is that we can collect money from non-attendees and attendees in advance. Also, we can continue to collect donations after the event.
  • Particularized website
  • Money Collection
  • Software Training
  • I wish they way you could set up ticketing was different. For example, if there was spacing for only 26 tables or 260 guests, the tickets dont seem to allow you to stay within that range.
  • Needs a space for sponsors to give.
I think that onecause is great for any organization. I learned about it 5 years ago while working with another organization. When switching to another organization, I reached out to them only to discover we were already partners. So, we worked towards renewing that relationship. Finally, I am an active relationship with onecause again at my current organization. All three organizations focused on health and human services but executed its work and mission differently. So, I believe it can work for any organization. The risk may be committing to a three year contract.

The main reason for our decision to use the OneCause product was to expand our capabilities at our fundraising gala, especially for our silent auction.
  • Manage donations
  • Operate a silent auction
  • Manage donors
  • Startup is difficult when you are a new user who doesn't have a lot of time to spend watching videos of how to do simple tasks.
  • This is not as convenient as it could be for fiscally sponsored programs. Fiscally sponsored programs can not easily print report to send to donors & sponsors since they operate under one name and function under another organizations 501(c)(3).
  • The inability to edit events without having to contact customer service is not convenient.
  • Startup is difficult when you are a new user who doesn't have a lot of time to spend watching videos of how to do simple tasks.
This is great to manage your event, including registration. Whether it is a live or silent auction it is a great way to manage your donations, packages and your bidders.

We use OneCause's BidPal system for our school auction. It is our major fundraiser for our school and we needed an upgrade from our handwritten, paper system that we were using for our silent and live auction. BidPal has done what they promote- increasing our auction revenue by using this online system.
  • OneCause's Customer Support is the best I've ever experienced
  • The online training classes included with the system are extremely helpful
  • The final product (the online auction presentation to users) looks great and is easy to use
  • The initial auction set up is somewhat complicated, but there is training available for this
Last year was my first time using OneCause. I had a lot of questions when it came to setting up our large school auction. The over the phone customer support was the best I've ever experienced. They were really patient and helpful and almost always I was confident my question/problem was resolved by the end of the call.

We implemented OneCause's Mobile Bidding Software at our "Broadway Bash" Annual Fundraiser. We utilized OneCause to create a digital home base for our event. Guests could see event info, an itinerary for the night, and even preview packages that would be available for auction. Using this software gave us the ability to organize our event, and keep accurate reports of things like RSVPs, ticket sales, guest contact information, bidding history, package prices and price increases etc. It is a complete A to Z event management software, and it helped us create a seamless experience for our guests.
  • Automatically generating tax receipts for guests who donate, win silent auction packages, etc
  • Comprehensive overview of your entire event
  • Top-of-the-line customer service and help lines
  • More guidance on terminal use (in case guests do not want to use their personal device)
  • More volunteer training guides
OneCause is less appropriate for small, intimate events. It works incredibly well for large-scale auctions, fundraisers, and events where the goal is the maximize the amount of money you can raise. It makes it easy for guests to support your cause and give money through donations, appeals auctions, and so on.

We use OneCause to help take in money at our nonprofit fundraising events. We use it to facilitate silent auctions, mystery gift purchases, and to make donations at the event.
  • Good customer service.
  • Pretty flexible program.
  • Quick support responses.
  • I think the default landing pages could have a better look and aesthetic. It looks pretty dated as of now.
  • In my most recent event experience, our event consultant and their boss did not have the same price info. That caused some confusion for all of us, but especially me. I had to push back a lot in order to not be charged more than quoted. That was a first. More upfront pricing would be great.
  • It would be nice to be able to edit multiple items at once - with more than just the options it gives now.
I like how it's a one-stop shop, and you can have OneCause employees work at your event. I find that so helpful and gives me a lot of peace of mind while running an event. It's nice to have that extra set of hands and brainpower. I've been able to make it work for all the things we need at an event.

We use OneCause for special events ticketing and auction management. The main problems addressed by the product at our organization are: 1) offering of ticket sales and sponsorship packages at different price points; 2) silent auction bidding and auctions; 3) live auction promotions and publicity; 4) information management about the event itself; 5) easing the process of making online donations in honor of the special event.
  • Ticket set-up. Extremely easy to manage and change as needed.
  • Sales tax collection on eligible product/package sales.
  • Silent auction and bidding management
  • Day-of event registration and payment processing
  • Options to personalize the text descriptions used in the registration process. Some of the wording is confusing and there's no option to edit those text boxes.
  • The set-up for the silent auction options is not exactly the easiest to follow for new users. Having some concrete examples or use cases to consult when first setting up would be helpful.
  • It would be great to have a "check for errors" functionality when you're going through the auction set-up. For example, for some reason when our live auction was set up, two items didn't have "Apply Sales Tax" checked and so they got erroneously listed without the sales tax. Given that ALL the other items had sales tax applied, it seems like it should be easy to have something run in the background that flags potential errors for review.
Great for smaller organizations that really have to rely on a third-party system to help them manage special events, as they lack the permanent staff to handle all the ins and outs that accompany special event planning. Also really great for events that you know have a regular cadence and format to them and where you can duplicate the core content from one year to the next and then just update the copy/details as needed.

OneCause has helped us to streamline our events. When I started at my organization, silent auctions were still being done with pen and paper and RSVPs were being sent in by mail. This software has helped us save so much time and made information easily accessible to all members of our team.
  • Easy event set up
  • Great customer service
  • Time saving
  • Navigation isn't completely intuitive
I think it is great for smaller organizations like mine. I think that adding examples of different types of events could be a positive change, almost like a template. Removing or adding certain aspects that wouldn't be used for certain kinds of events. Adding items to the silent auction feature is a little clunky but the software is still worth it and way easier than how we had previously been doing things.
