Fundraising Reimagined

Race for a cause.
Guess the time. Win.

Pledge Time turns every charity race into an exciting guessing game — donors pick a finish time, and the closest guess wins a gift card.

How it all works

Simple for participants, exciting for donors — everyone wins when the cause does well.

Donors give & guess

Every donation comes with a time guess. Each second is unique — only one donor can claim each time slot.

Closest time wins

When the finishing time is confirmed, the donor closest to it wins the gift card prize. If no finish, the winner is drawn randomly.

Milestones keep it fun

How It Works

PledgeTime makes fundraising exciting for everyone involved.

For Participants

For Donors

About the Prize

The gift card prize is funded by the participant — it’s their way of saying thank you to their supporters. PledgeTime offers a convenient gift card store, or participants can arrange their own prize through our team. If the event doesn’t go ahead, the prize is randomly drawn from all donors so everyone has a fair chance.

About Us

We believe fundraising should be as exciting for donors as it is meaningful for participants.

PledgeTime was founded with a simple idea: what if every charity donation came with a little extra excitement? We noticed that traditional fundraising pages can feel passive for donors — you give money, you wish the runner luck, and then you wait. We wanted to change that.

By adding a time-guessing game to every fundraiser, we’ve turned donations into an experience. Donors feel invested in the event — they’re not just supporters, they’re competitors. And participants get more engagement, more shares, and more donations as a result.

We’re a small, passionate team based in the UK, committed to making charity fundraising more engaging, more social, and — frankly — more fun. Every penny donated through PledgeTime goes directly to the chosen charity. We keep things transparent so participants and donors can trust the platform completely.
