What does Redswing cost? (Fees explained)

A small platform fee on what you collect — no monthly cost, no setup fee.

There's no monthly fee and no setup cost. Redswing takes a small percentage of what you collect, so it only costs you anything when you're actually raising money:

  • Registrations: 3%
  • Sponsorships: 5%
  • Silent auction: 5%
  • Add-ons (mulligans, contest entries): 5%
  • Direct donations: 0% — always free. Every dollar of a donation goes to your cause.

Standard Stripe card processing applies on top, and fees are taken automatically at the time of each payment — nothing to invoice or reconcile. The rest lands in your bank via Stripe.

A few more details:

  • Minimum event fee: $99 — but it's waived automatically once your event processes more than $5,000, and it's only ever evaluated after the event, never charged upfront.
  • Text messages: $0.02 per message, capped at $25 per event.
  • Cover the fee: payers can opt to add 3% so your charity keeps 100% — see The "cover the fee" option.
