This site has everything you need to get started to and to create custom forms for sign ups as well as waivers for any classes. People using your collection can easily pay for classes using several different methods. It's great.
Pros: I have been using Cheddar Up for several years now to handle all of my yoga registrations for my classes. It is a comprehensive site that has so many wonderful features from building your forms to adding a waiver and collecting payment. It's easy to use and looks polished and professional too. I love it!
Cons: Doesn't apply! I like everything about it. Cheddar Up is simple to use and if you have any issues at all you can chat with the customer service team to resolve it.
Donna B. · Yoga Instructor · Health, Wellness and Fitness · April 16, 2026
Extremely positive. I'd definitely use again and also recommend to friends who are interested in doing a peer-to-peer fundraiser.
Pros: The platform had a nice design and visual layout. With the first subscription level, things were quite automated. We ran a peer-to-peer ski "lap-a-thon" and I was the organizer, as well as my son participating. From both an organizational and a participant standpoint, it was quite easy after a little bit of a learning curve. Customer service was great. Organizing and transferring money was a breeze.
Cons: It was a little challenging to find the correct links to share via text or on social media. I would have liked to attended a demo session but there weren't many that worked for my time frame. Overall, minor issues.

Meredith R. · Volunteer · Health, Wellness and Fitness · April 6, 2026
Cheddar Up has overall been an absolute joy of an experience, my troop leaders and myself love to use it and we don’t have any issues with it. It’s easier for us to create a Cheddar Up for our parents and send a link out versus telling them in person or through email or text and then asking for cash. It’s also good for our service unit since there’s a variety of troops with different ages and levels and needs and we’re able to create a campaign where people can just go and select their needs and pay. Then we can pull a report and see what all is needed.
Pros: I believe that Cheddar Up has been very helpful in the way that my Girl Scout troop conducts business. We use the upgraded feature and are able to accept money for troop dues for outings that we go on for basic necessities and it has been very easy to use for parents and Troop Leader leaders. Payment processing is not an issue with Cheddar Up. There is a slight fee that our parents pay or we pay for them to use the services but we don’t have to take cash payments anymore and it seems like it’s more convenient for our families. Of course there are many features that Cheddar Up offers so it is a learning curve to get started, but once you get the hang of it, you’re moving very swiftly through the system.
Cons: There isn’t anything that I don’t like about Cheddar Up services it’s more of you having to learn how to use it to the best of your ability and for what you’re looking for.
Cadijah R. · Troop Leader · Non-Profit Organization Management · March 27, 2026
I've had a wonderful experience with Cheddar Up. I've never had a problem with them and anytime I've had questions I've been able to call customer service and they've been able to help and walk me through anything I have questions on.
Pros: The ease of using it. Cheddar Up makes it easy to do everything from volunteer sign up to actually collecting money for our events we hold. Being able to add all your information, including flyers, onto the event is wonderful. I don't have to use multiple pages to do this, it's all in one place. Being able to ask all the questions needed for the members that are registering for an event is great also. You can ask as many different questions and even multiple choice questions with answers and everything is altogether. Printing our different reports that are needed for our events or volunteer list is easy to do and and they are easy to read. The cost of using cheddar up is minimal and our organization finds it perfect. Payments are easy to be make whether with credit card or cash or an e check. Everything is processed and cleared quickly and then deposited into our bank account just as quickly.
Cons: I wish there was an area to save a list of frequently asked questions on my registration links. It would make it easier when I have to ask the questions on our events. We often ask the same questions on all our events, So having a preset set of questions saved would make it easier and quicker.
Jennifer A. · Service Unit Treasurer · Non-Profit Organization Management · November 29, 2025
Amazing customer service, very responsive and helpful. The platform allows our PTA to be more efficient with all sign ups and donations in one place instead of using another website for sign ups. The visual look of the page is beautiful and clean and I love how we can even have our own webpage with all our open collections in one place.
Pros: Clean appearance, easy to set up and easy for our families to use. The value for the cost of our membership is fantastic since it is bundled with our MoneyMinder subscription.
Cons: Sometimes it’s hard to have to click through so many pages. Example we have a sign up to donate money or items and the first page only shows the option to donate money and you don’t see the option to donate food items until you move on the next page.
Elizabeth K. · Treasurer · Non-Profit Organization Management · September 16, 2025
So far Cheddar up has been amazing. It is easy to use and manage for all of our PTA needs. Transferring money into our account has also been quick and easy.
Pros: The ease of setting up collections and sales. We love the ability to send out links for our sales as well as collect payments in person
Cons: We haven't found a downside yet. I guess is there was something I would improve would be the ability to add at least one more user to the account instead of having to upgrade to the teams account
Elizabeth C. · Treasurer · Non-Profit Organization Management · September 7, 2025
Our overall experience with cheddar up is extremely positive. We are going into our third year with the company and we use it all the time. It has increased our member engagement and fundraising efforts exponentially and we couldn't imagine how we would be able to do all the things we do without it.
Pros: It is so user-friendly and easy to accept credit cards for our PTA. We love that the fees are paid by the customer and they are cheaper than other credit card platforms. There are so many great templates and different things you can create with your fundraisers and donation drives. We also love the point-of-sale features and how easy it is too transfer the money to our bank account.
Cons: Some times the credit card reader and point of sale give us trouble in the moment of collecting money. This could be a wifi issue or software issue, but I don't think it is a platform issue. Everything else is great.
Arthur L. · Secretary · Non-Profit Organization Management · September 6, 2025
Excellent experience! I share with other organizations often about the benefits and how they can streamline their collections & information. It's 100% worth the subscription cost.
Pros: Our organization has been able to streamline all of our sign-ups, volunteers, sponsorships, and merchandise sales in one location. We love that we can assign different collections to different members. The customer support we have received has been incredible! Always fast & they fix our issues right away.
Cons: The hardest part for a non-profit is getting our sponsors & families to help with covering the convenience fees. Everyone is starting to understand the costs associated with the convenience of using a credit card, so that is getting easier.
DeLinn P. · VP and Director of Communications · Non-Profit Organization Management · August 19, 2025
Cheddar Up has been a great way for our school, coaches, and booster club to quickly and easily collect team dues, player fees and sell event tickets. It is super easy to setup a payment link and the questionnaire and forms features make collecting player, member and guest information incredibly easy.
Pros: Cheddar Up is incredibly easy to quickly setup payment links for team collections, events or other activities we need for our school booster club. Linking to our bank is easy and money transfers are generally 1-2 days. Having the option for donors and payers to cover fees makes sure we raise as much money has possible and is much more affordable than other credit card payment solutions.
Cons: I've had no bad experiences, but if I had to nitpick, sometimes updated URLs to payment links can be tricky if you're duplicating a collection for a new team or year.
Jason T. · President · Non-Profit Organization Management · August 18, 2025
I'm very happy so far and would recommend to other PTOs who are looking for a simple and effective tool.
Pros: Super easy to use for our PTO. User friendly and more affordable than the clunkier software we used last year. Very happy that our team can work together to build a site that works great for our school needs.
Cons: We are still waiting on a payment transfer but hopefully that will be smooth. I don't foresee any issues though.
Eva D. · President · Non-Profit Organization Management · August 6, 2025
Easy, I also loved the flow between app and website. The app could be optimized in terms of visuals and formatting a bit but it's really not a bad app. Great service, highly recommend.
Pros: Makes business operations accessible and less chaotic. They have a somewhat affordable plan range and convenient design.
Cons: There were issues on the customers end, although to be fair, it could be because of issues on their end, instead of Cheddar-Up's end. Overall, I really don't have any complaints.
Genevieve K. · Manager · Retail · July 18, 2025
My overall experience has been great. Cheddar Up is easy to use, and their customer service is incredibly responsive and helpful every time I’ve had a question.
Pros: Cheddar Up makes fundraising and organizing so much easier. I use it for team fundraisers and for my small business. It’s clean, secure, and easy for families to use. No more chasing checks or juggling spreadsheets!
Cons: I wish Cheddar Up had a built-in live auction feature. It would make it even more useful for fundraisers and events where bidding and real-time engagement are key.
Kathy R. · Founder · Marketing and Advertising · July 3, 2025
Overall, this product was easy to setup and immediately begin using. With clear labels guiding me, this experience was fast and hassle‑free. The streamlined layout meant I could just start creating.
Pros: I setup our Makers Market, and I must say—setup was a breeze! Everything was well-organized and easy to create.
Cons: The cons included self teaching myself how to setup the site. However, after the first time of setting this up- you are ready to take on the world!
Nina M. · Dean · Education Management · June 17, 2025
This product has truly been a game-changer, making our sorority's fundraising events run smoothly and efficiently.
Pros: It’s easy to set up and eliminates the need for us to manually collect money for fundraisers or events.
Cons: I wish I could have at least 2 collections running at a time without having to buy a membership or having a non-profit account. It would also be nice to be able to have users different options to make payments without having to purchase a membership.
Leslie D. · Epistoleus · Fund-Raising · May 9, 2025
This platform has made collecting funds for our 30th class reunion easy. People are very skeptical of providing their personal information to platforms, so cheddar made it easy.
Pros: The platform was easy to set up. The fees were transparent, and the data collection is simple.
Cons: Paying for templates. I originally set up a template and didn't realize I was in a paid template, so I lost all the information.
Kayla M. · Member · Leisure, Travel & Tourism · April 29, 2025
Great tool. I have a lot going on, and I needed a way to post and allow purchases quickly without a whole store setup. The way it works makes showcasing my collections and collecting money for multiple streams so easy. I started getting sales within the hour I posted the link!
Pros: Easy instructions, excellent presentation, and easy to use. User friendly.
Cons: The cost of pre-transaction is too high.
hope g. · Me · Non-Profit Organization Management · March 23, 2025
Excellent. Our club members and donors have been very positive about the interface, and it integrates seamlessly with MoneyMinder.
Pros: It's integrations with Zapier and MoneyMinder are really helpful for a small club.
Cons: I wish we could create QR codes for Items in a collection rather than just the entire collection. That would make it easier to promote specific items without having to create a unique collection.
Carolyn H. · Treasurer · Civic & Social Organization · February 26, 2025
The set up of our page was very easy and manage. Users like how easy it has been to use to support our fundraiser. I also love the reports and all the fields you can include to collect data.
Pros: Easy to set up and easy for people to use!
Cons: Nothing/ from start to finish it was easy and convenient.
Katie C. · Fundraising · Non-Profit Organization Management · February 12, 2025
Customer support is great - the set up was easy and the tracking is great
Pros: early allows us to get payments from our fundrasing eff
Cons: simple to use - nothing comes to mind - -
Stephen B. · CFO · Financial Services · February 3, 2025
Wonderful. Easy to use and easy to share with people.
Pros: That I did not have to handle cash with young children and their parent could easily pay online.
Cons: That I had to view the form selections via email and not in the app.
Emily M. · Teacher · Education Management · January 31, 2025
Cheddar Up is easy to set up, and money transfers are trouble-free.
Pros: Cheddar Up is intuitive and User Friendly
Cons: I have no complaints. Cheddar Up fully meets my expectations.
Richard H. · President · Military · January 16, 2025
Extremely satisfied! I will be recommending to everyone I know!
Pros: The efficiency and ability to create exactly what is needed for your specific event.
Cons: The wait for funds to clear is the only thing I guess I can say is a con. It would be nice to have instant access.
Cassaundra D. · Owner · Consumer Services · January 13, 2025
Pros: We love using this for volunteer opportunities as well as tickets for non-profit events. It has been an incredible resource for our group!
Cons: nothing. It truly is so user friendly and customizable!
Ashley G. · Coordinator · Non-Profit Organization Management · January 12, 2025
It keeps my organization organized, helps me keep record, and collect money without the extra fees.
Pros: It’s an easy platform to maneuver and it ABSOLUTELY gets the job done.
Cons: I can’t say there is anything I don’t like. For me using it as a Parent Teacher Organization (PTO), it gives me exactly what I need to engage with my parents.
Tabitha M. · PTO President · Non-Profit Organization Management · December 4, 2024
Our hiking group needed a way to collect donations to cover our annual expenses and some swag items. Cheddar Up was perfect. No one had a problem donating, and we used all of the shares including a QR code, texting, and web link.
Pros: Easy to use for our group to collect annual donations to cover group expenses.
Cons: Cheddar Up did everything our group needed.
