About

Upraise

Features
Read full description

What’s a Raise? Well, it’s a challenge. Or a dare. With conditions. And funds to back it up. You can Raise anyone, any company or any cause you choose. You call the shots. If the beneficiary satisfies the condition, then they get paid. If they don’t, then it’s refunded to the backers. Either way, start that conversation. And build that community. Or just have some fun. The goal is to help individuals change behavior – and the conversation – one challenge at a time. How? By adding impact through the power of collective interest and money.
