An on-demand store never closes, so supporters can buy whenever they want — back-to-school, cold-weather, playoffs — not just once. A one-time order counts a single purchase.

$600 more per year

A store that stays open all year — instead of closing after one order — raises an estimated $600 more from the same community.

Estimates. On-demand means no leftover stock eating the margin — the full fundraising upcharge is the cause's profit, tracked automatically and paid out reliably.

How on-demand fundraising works

On Brikl, fundraising is a percentage of the price plus an optional flat amount added on top of product cost and markup. That upcharge is the cause's profit on every order — and because every item is made on demand, there's no inventory to buy up front and no leftover stock eating into what you keep. The margin is tracked automatically and paid out reliably: no paper forms, no chasing checks.

The bigger lever is time. A one-time order collects a single burst and closes. An always-on store never closes — so it keeps selling all season and stays open for homecoming, cold-weather hoodies, playoffs, and every new family, not just the first two weeks.

Fundraising FAQ

How does spirit-wear fundraising work on Brikl?
You add a fundraising upcharge — a percentage of the price plus an optional flat amount per order — on top of product cost and your markup. That upcharge is the cause's profit on every sale, tracked automatically in the dashboard and paid out reliably. No paper forms, no collecting checks.
Is there a minimum order to raise money?
No. Every item is produced on demand, so a single hoodie raises money the same way a hundred do. There's no bulk buy, no inventory, and no leftover stock cutting into what you keep.
Why does an always-on store raise more than an order window?
A two-week window captures one burst of orders and then closes. An always-on store keeps selling all season — back-to-school, homecoming, cold-weather hoodies, playoffs, holidays — and stays open for new families and late joiners. Same community, more chances to buy.
Are the calculator's numbers guaranteed?
No — they're estimates to help you plan. Actual results depend on your community, participation, product mix, and how you promote the store. The math is shown so you can adjust every assumption.
