The benefits of crowdfunding football club projects include:
English Football League teams and grassroots clubs alike can choose to set up a crowdfunder to raise football club funding. You might need to raise money to refurbish your ground, get a new kit, invest in more training for players, or even support an individual team member in need.
Crowdfunder lets you choose weekly or monthly payouts when you set up your project. If you do not wish to receive funds until a later date, you can choose to manually start payouts from your dashboard after your project goes live. Please note all funds go through a 7 day clearing period before they are eligible to payout.
Grassroots teams with a football crowdfunding page may be eligible for match funding grants via our match funding scheme. We have regional and national public sector, corporate and local authority partners across the UK, including Sport England, Sport Wales, and Sport NI. Each match funding partner will pledge a different sum to boost your fundraising total, depending on your eligibility. Check the individual criteria of each fund to see if you’re eligible to apply.
Yes, you can give back to your fans and supporters by offering rewards and prize draws as part of your football crowdfunding project. Examples of rewards to offer include signed shirts or balls, luxury hampers, or a chance to train with your team. This can be a great way to engage your crowd, raise funds, and thank people for their support.
