Turn pledges into payments.
A pledge is a promise, not a payment — and most organisations lose a third of them in the gap between the two. PledgesDone tracks every pledge from the raised hand to the reconciled payment, automatically.
✓ Money goes straight to your Stripe account✓ PledgesDone never holds donor funds✓ No percentage fees
One home for every pledge.
Pledges made by QR form, called out to volunteers, or written on paper cards all land in one live dashboard — who pledged, how much, at which event, and exactly what’s outstanding.
No more spreadsheets stitched together the week after the event. Your committee sees the same numbers, live, from the moment the first hand goes up.
- Donor pledge tracking across every event and campaign
- Real-time outstanding balances — never guess who still owes
- Full pledge history per donor, ready for your next appeal
Reminders your donors actually thank you for.
Chasing pledges by phone is the job everyone on the committee avoids. PledgesDone sends polite, well-timed SMS and email reminders with a one-tap payment link — Apple Pay and Google Pay ready, no login, no forms.
The sequence keeps going until the pledge is paid, and stops the second it is. Donors experience a gentle nudge, not a debt collector.

Reconciled to the cent, automatically.
Every payment lands in your own Stripe account and is matched to its pledge instantly. Total pledged, collected to date, outstanding, fees and net — your treasurer report is always one click away and always current.
Built for the live moment, too.
Pledge management is strongest when the pledge is captured well. PledgesDone starts working in the room — QR pledge forms, a live total on the projector, challenges and auctions — so every promise enters the system the second it’s made.

Questions, answered.
What is pledge management software?
Software that tracks donor pledges from the moment they’re made to the moment they’re paid — recording who pledged what, sending payment reminders, collecting payments, and reconciling everything so nothing slips through the cracks.
How does PledgesDone recover unpaid pledges?
With an automated, polite sequence: a gentle SMS about three days after the event, an email with a one-tap Apple Pay / Google Pay link, then smart reminders until the pledge is paid. Most pledges convert on the first message.
What collection rate can we expect?
Organisations using automated follow-up routinely collect above 95% of what was pledged, compared with an industry average of around 70% when follow-up is manual.
Can donors pay a pledge in person or by cash?
Yes. Volunteers can record cash and card payments against a pledge, and everything reconciles into the same dashboard and reports.
Does pledge tracking work across multiple events?
Yes. Every donor’s pledge and payment history is kept across all your events and campaigns, so you know exactly who your most reliable supporters are.
