Written by the company

An online platform making it easy for organisations to raise funds with or without an established online presents. Even without an e-commerce account charities and schools can use the built in card payments to accept funds. All that’s required is a bank account to accept the final BACS payout. The virtual balloon race provides an online platform to take payments and organise virtual balloons (or ducks) into a race. Balloons are sold before the start date. Balloons move between the start and finish dates chosen by the race organiser. The movement of balloons is calculated via an algorithm that maintains a close race and avoids a runaway leader. Once the finish date arrives the balloons stop moving and you have a winner. The full leaderboard is displayed for 2 months. For a same day BACS payment the organiser clicks “Request Money Transfer”. The cost of online sales is 12% of sales which covers stripe costs and website maintenance.

Exceptional Service

Absolutely brilliant idea - David is so helpful and responds quickly to any queries. The entire process is very straightforward from a user perspective, and the funds were in our account extremely quickly once requested. I absolutely would not hesitate to use this service again and would recommend it to anyone considering a balloon race.

We have run a virtual balloon race…

We have run a virtual balloon race twice. It's so easy to set up and to administer the balloons and David responded to all our queries really quickly. Funds raised were paid to us as soon as we requested it. Would highly recommend and wouldn't hesitate to use again!
