Frequently Asked Questions

  • Do I have to be part of a team or organization to raise funds? No, any player or parent can launch their own fundraiser today! We started Good Sport Gifts specifically to help you cover your individual expenses for the sport you love.
  • What will this cost me? Nothing! There are no startup costs! And it's quick and easy to begin.
  • How much can I earn? There is no limit to what you can make! You earn 25% commission on every order placed under your GoodSportStore.com account. So if you invite 20 people, and 10 of them shop under your ID with an average order of $60, you earn $150 towards your fundraising campaign.
  • How long will my fundraiser last? There is no limit to the time you can run your fundraiser. Keep it going for your entire sports career! Your friends and relatives will enjoy coming back and placing repeat orders in your store, because we offer terrific products and gifts for every family member, all at affordable prices. We keep adding new, exciting selections to our store each month, and we send your supporters occasional reminders (about once a month) when we have new products or promotions that will interest them.
  • How do I get people to shop under my gift shop account? Luckily for you, we've created a a special collection of marketing resources for you to use. You'll have access to professional-looking email newsletters to send to your family and friends, as well as flyers and posters you can distribute to neighbors, or even post in a public place. You can put your own personal spin on any of these resources to really make your campaign stand out! Our store also features Facebook and Twitter links so you can easily share or "Like" specific products with everyone on your Friends list.
  • Can I shop at the store under my own name? Yes, you can. Our store has many fun and useful items for everyone to enjoy. When you shop under your own name you still get your 25% commission, so think of it as getting paid to shop for great merchandise!
  • Why is the commission rate 25%? Why not 40% or 50% like some candy or wrapping paper fundraisers? Because 50% of nothing is nothing! If no one buys from your online store, it doesn't matter what the commission rate is. We want you to easily receive orders, so we have carefully selected products which your relatives and friends will be happy to buy, at prices which appeal to them. Sure, we could raise our prices and offer you a higher share. But then your supporters might visit the store and leave without placing an order, or order one small item only because they felt obligated. Instead, we offer terrific products, affordable pricing and a realistic commission rate, so your fans will place larger orders (meaning larger earnings for you), and will come back and order often!
  • How do I receive the funds I've raised? It's easy! We will make PayPal payments to the email address you provide when you sign up for your fundraiser. If you don't have a PayPal account, don't worry. We will give you the info you need to start your PayPal account, which is also free.
  • How often do I receive payments? We process payments for your commissions twice a month. So if your account has received at least one order, you will receive a payment in your PayPal account about a week after that half-month period ends.
  • Will I need to deliver products or collect money from customers? Definitely not! Your supporters place their orders directly thru our online gift shop, we collect their payments at checkout, and we ship the products directly to them. You don't need to go door to door, take orders, collect money, or deliver products. Simply Click! (sign up), Click! (send some emails or share on Facebook or Twitter), and Cash! (collect your earnings thru your PayPal account).
