Sell merchandise through your mycause event
You can sell your merchandise on mycause using the events platform. You can sell merchandise as part of your peer-to-peer event, or create an event specifically as a merchandise store.
Your merchandise can be donation type items, or non-donation items. For example;
- Shirts, caps, etc…
- Wristbands
- Virtual items (e.g “buy a goat”)
- Raffle tickets
- Event tickets
We’ve broken down the setup process into three simple steps;
- Create your merchandise
- Connect it to an event
- Display it on the event
1 Creating Merchandise in your Partner Dashboard
All merchandise is created and housed in your Partner Dashboard so you are able to sell it through as many events you like, including annual events.
When you create the merchandise you can customise settings, including deductibility type, product attributes (like size and colour), and quantity available.
2 Connecting Merchandise to an Event Dashboard
After merchandise has been created in your Partner Dashboard, you need to link it to the event/s through which it will be sold.
This step happens inside the Event Dashboard and allows you to group items, add settings for shipping address and fee, and ask for optional donations.
3 Displaying Merchandise on the Event Template
The final step to selling merchandise, is to display it on the event’s website by adding it to the Event Template.
You are free to design your store to meet your own brand guidelines and requirements.
