Guests and staff enter pledges in seconds. Your team approves every commitment, and the total rises live on the big screen — without card details, payment processing or percentage fees.
No credit card. No bank connection. No payment-provider approval.
Selected organizations reported a 25% increase in pledges compared with their events in previous years. Results vary by event.
Donation platforms wait for a card payment before moving the total. Nedarim is different. A guest, phone-bank worker or staff member records a commitment, your team approves it, and the live total moves immediately.
Nedarim never handles the money. Continue collecting pledges through your bank, office, Nedarim Plus, Stripe or any system you already use.

Nedarim charges only for use of its software. Your organization remains responsible for collecting pledges and may pay separate fees to whichever bank or payment service it chooses.

Guests pledge from their phones while event staff and phone-bank workers enter commitments from the dashboard. No card or payment details are required.
Public pledges reach the approval queue instantly. Your team checks the name, amount and message before anything reaches the room.
The approved pledge takes over the big screen, plays the right celebration and moves the campaign total in real time.

Percentage-based pricing gets more expensive every time your campaign succeeds. Nedarim's price is based on the pledge capacity you choose, not the total your community raises.

Nedarim charges only for use of its software. Your organization remains responsible for collecting pledges and may pay separate fees to whichever bank or payment service it chooses.
If your event collects commitments first and payments later, Nedarim gives your team one place to capture, approve and celebrate every pledge.
Choose a tier based on the number of pledges you expect. Upgrade if the event grows. The amount pledged never changes Nedarim's percentage — because that percentage is always zero.
Pledge ranges define how many approved pledges each tier covers. If your event grows, attach a larger license from the event's settings without stopping the live screen; existing pledges are preserved. The free trial stops at 10 approved pledges.
Nedarim is live pledge software for fundraising events: dinners, galas, telethons, phone banks and live appeals. Guests and staff enter pledges in seconds, your team approves them, and the running total, celebrations and sponsor logos appear on the big screen in real time. Nedarim records and displays pledges. It does not process payments and takes 0% of what you raise.
In 2 to 5 minutes. Create a free account, name your event, set a goal and your colours, and open the live display on any screen. There is no payment gateway to connect, no bank onboarding and no approval to wait for, so the first pledge can be on the screen the same minute. The free trial needs no credit card.
Charidy and Charity Extra are online crowdfunding platforms. They host a campaign page, usually with matching multipliers and a deadline, collect card payments from donors over a few days, and charge a platform fee or a percentage of what is raised. Nedarim is built for the room on the night. It captures pledges at your dinner, gala, telethon or phone bank, lets your team approve each one, and moves the total on the big screen the moment a pledge is approved. Nedarim never handles the money and takes 0% of what you raise. You collect the pledges afterwards through your own bank, office or payment service.
GoFundMe, Givebutter, Classy and similar platforms are online donation pages: a donor finds the page, pays by card, and the platform processes the money, often for a percentage or a tip. Nedarim is live pledge software for the event itself. It runs the room on the night: guests and staff enter pledges in seconds, your team approves each one, and the total climbs on the big screen in front of everyone. Nedarim never touches the money and takes 0% of what you raise; you collect the pledges through whatever you already use, including one of those donation pages. Many organizations run both: a donation page for online giving all year, and Nedarim for the dinner, gala, telethon or phone bank.
Yes. Many organizations run an online campaign before the event and use Nedarim on the night. Nedarim does not replace your collection process: export the approved pledges as a spreadsheet and follow up through whatever you already use, including a crowdfunding page, an invoice, a bank transfer or a card link.
No. Nedarim records and displays pledges. It never takes card information, handles donor money or transfers funds. Your organization collects pledges using its existing process.
No. Nedarim takes 0% of the amount pledged. You pay only the displayed software price for your event.

A laptop or any device with a browser connected to the screen or projector, and the guests' own phones. Nothing is installed and no app is downloaded. Staff enter pledges from the dashboard on their own devices, and the display updates over your normal internet connection.
Each event receives a public pledge link. Guests enter their name, amount and optional message from any phone, without an account, app or card.
It reaches your team immediately but does not appear publicly until an authorized organizer approves it.
Yes. Staff record phone, paddle, verbal, cash, check and other commitments from the event dashboard.
Yes. Enter a major gift before the event and schedule when it appears, to launch a matching window or follow a speech. Run the matching window with a countdown, and set celebration levels by amount so a headline gift fills the room while smaller pledges pop onto the screen.
Yes. Sponsor tiers control logo size, position and screen time, with rotating slots, spotlights or a sponsor wall on the live display, so sponsors get the visibility they paid for.
Continue using your existing bank, payment service, office system or collection process. Export your pledge data from Nedarim whenever you need it.

One clear price per event, based on the number of pledges you expect, and 0% of what you raise. Start with the free trial, and attach a larger license from the pricing table when the event grows. There are no subscriptions and no percentage fees.
The free trial stops accepting pledges at 10 approved pledges. On a paid tier, attach a larger license from the event's settings and keep going; nothing is stopped and every existing pledge is preserved.
Create your event, open the live display and try the complete pledge workflow. No payment gateway, bank connection or credit card required.
