All ZIPS Car Wash fundraisers consist of preselling our car washes digitally, which are redeemable at your community's assigned ZIPS Car Wash location.

We'll issue you a unique, designated fundraiser page that all participants will use to presell washes specifically for your organization. 50% of the proceeds from Premier and Pro car washes sold during your event (purchased through your fundraiser's page) will be donated directly to your organization.

We strongly recommend using Stripe to receive payments when you partner with us for a fundraiser - learn more about that here. Raised funds may then be deposited into this Stripe account weekly during your fundraiser period.

For more details, check out this PDF breakdown of our fundraising platform, Welcomemat.

We partner with a variety of non-profit organizations, including schools, sports teams, faith-based organizations, first responders, military support groups, animal shelters, and community health initiatives.

We do not offer fundraisers for individuals, political activities, or for-profit organizations.

We encourage all organizations partnering with ZIPS for a fundraiser to set up a Stripe account. All transactions through Stripe are secure and fast. If your organization does not have an existing account, contact your leadership team for your account information and set one up before completing the request form.

Alternatively, we can mail a physical printed check to the address associated with your organization. Please note that it can take up to 60 days to receive your check after the end of the fundraiser, and you will need to provide an up-to-date W9 for your organization.

Absolutely! Digital flyers and promotional materials will be sent via email once your fundraiser is approved. Feel free to include them in email blasts, newsletters, or print them out!

If additional promotional items are needed, please discuss this with the ZIPS Car Wash Team Member supporting your event.

If using our recommended Direct Deposit through Stripe method, your proceeds will be sent to your Stripe account weekly. Please allow 4-6 weeks for processing.

If you elected to be mailed a paper check, please allow up to 60 days follow the end of your fundraiser before contacting a ZIPS Team Member regarding payment.

Qualifying Premier and Pro wash sales supporting your fundraiser must be purchased online through your fundraiser's unique webpage. Meaning, your organization can sell car washes anytime, anywhere (within your selling period, of course)!

Following a wash sale through your fundraiser's page, the purchaser will be emailed a wash code to be redeemed at any time, exclusively at the ZIPS Car Wash location that partnered with you.

Only Premier and Pro car washes purchased through your fundraiser page will count toward your proceeds. Purchased washes are sent directly to each buyer via email and include a redemption code to be used at your assigned ZIPS Car Wash location.

While purchases of Premier and Pro washes can support your fundraiser, please note that gift card sales, Basic and Basic Plus washes do NOT count toward your proceeds.
