Game Changers: SWEET Fundraising Software on IPad

The IPad has landed with much fanfare and impressive early sales.  Not only does device possess the ultra-usability if it's predecessor, the IPhone, but it also combines a large viewing area, touchscreen, long battery life, and  unprecedented connectivity.

The IPad, used in conjunction with a service like SWEET Fundraising Software for Walk-a-thons and Pledge Events can really be a game-changer for nonprofit event planners.

Registration and Check-in at a nonprofit event is a PAIN in the A**.

Volunteers, bulky equipment, old laptops, stinky batteries, offline and asynchronous systems all add up to confusion, long-lines, and lack of clarity as to who has paid.  Did i mention the angry event-goers?

From a nonprofit's perspective, using SWEET on an Ipad can be a godsend for event planning and execution.  No more wires, no more bulky laptops, no more confusion at the check-in table.  Just  login and and voila.  Your guest list complete with info about who has paid and who hasn't.

And if a registrant hasn't paid, simply click on the payment form and the registrant can pay on the spot.  No checks, no paperwork.  An organization can own a small fleet of these devices used by volunteers at check-in.  Everyone can benefit from being logged in and connected.  For example,someone pays using the IPad at the check-in table.  The volunteers at the t-shirt or incentives table will know to give them their door prize.  No more arguing or confusion about who payments.

SWEET and the IPad can eliminate so many pain points caused by event registration. 

Used together, SWEET and the IPad can lower the costs of running a pledge event and increase the ROI for the nonprofit.  The proliferation of devices like this will certainly make registration capabilities a vital component of any pledge event website offering.  Luckily, SWEET is already outfitted with an advanced and highly customizable registration module.
