by: Michael Saunders
A Scratchcard or a discount card holds sixty “scratch-
off” colored circles in a tiny tri-fold booklet. Fund raising
supporters are instructed to “scratch-off” the circles to
reveal the amount that they will contribute whereby the
highest contribution amount is $2.50. Scratchcards are
a simple way to donate for any cause. Each one who donates
obtains a coupon containing over 75 dollars worth of
redeemable or exchangeable goods at top retail stores as
"Thank You" gifts. Each Scratchcard may be able to build up
to 100 dollars! All cards may be personalized for your
group’s specification with no up front capital. Your group
can obtain revenue of $10 per card. They normally yield 10
units average sales per seller. Along with 80-90 percent
profit margins, discount cards generate substantially more
profit compared to other fundraising tools available. They
are non perishable and with their compact size, they can be
taken anywhere. Discount cards are designed on the
basis of donating a small amount and not having to make an
“overpriced purchase”. Kinds of discount fundraising
