Industry Playbook
Turn stall interest into involvement
A sausage sizzle can introduce people to your group. Supporters tap to collect a digital receipt carrying your logo and a join, volunteer or event link, and can choose to follow what happens next — so you can keep willing supporters updated between fundraisers.
- 90-day free trial for founding merchants
- No credit card required
- No lock-in contract
1 · What changes at your stall
Volunteers take payment through Square as they do now. The supporter taps the ReceiptWave stand to collect a receipt carrying your logo and a banner you set, linking to how to join, volunteer or attend. No receipt printer is needed at the table. Recorded sales give the treasurer a useful record, but reconciliation still happens outside ReceiptWave.
Connect ReceiptWave to Square to add tap-to-collect receipts and customer follow-up.
Setup takes under five minutes: connect your Square account, and connected sales flow through to ReceiptWave. Nothing changes at the till — staff take payment exactly as they do now.
2 · What to switch on, in this order
| Feature | Why it matters here | Do this |
|---|---|---|
| Digital receipt | One tap after payment. No printer or power needed at the trestle table. | Put the stand on the table. |
| Banner on every receipt | Your logo and one specific ask, linked to your join, volunteer or event page. | Use one ask, not three. |
| Following and updates | Supporters who choose to follow and stay subscribed can be sent news between events. | Send after each event, not weekly. |
3 · First action, and how to measure it
- Choose one goal for the next event. For example five volunteer enquiries — then count completed responses, not clicks.
- Give the treasurer the sales record, not the books. Cash, refunds and bank reconciliation stay outside ReceiptWave.
What the subscription needs to earn
Illustration: if a stall sale contributes $3 after costs, five additional sales a month would cover $15 — 60 across a year.
Assumption: $5 average sale at 60% contribution. A new member only helps if annual net dues exceed $180.
$15 / month + GST after the 90-day free trial. No lock-in contract.
