From The Taffy Barrel to your next fundraiser
The Taffy Barrel is a beloved local retail old-fashioned candy store serving Charlevoix, Michigan. Next year marks The Taffy Barrel's 20th season. Campaigns offer 80+ flavors — the same kind of candy people know from The Taffy Barrel in Charlevoix, sold through a short online fundraiser instead of a clipboard.
We built PopupTaffy for coaches, PTA parents, and group organizers who need a fundraiser that fits between practices and bedtime. Not a month of clipboards. Not a garage full of boxes. Just a short campaign, a personal store link for every seller, and taffy that ships straight to the people who ordered it.
Real take-home money for your team. Zero leftover inventory at your house.
How a PopupTaffy fundraiser works
Set up in about ten minutes
Pick a 4- or 7-day window, set a take-home goal, and get a code for your team. No meeting required.
Sellers share their own store
Every seller gets a personal link. They text it, post it, or drop it in a group chat. Supporters pick flavors, choose a pack (from $15), and pay online. Flat-rate shipping ($7.95) is paid by the buyer at checkout.
Orders ship. You keep 50% of taffy sales.
Every order ships to the buyer. Your payout hits your account within seven days after the fundraiser closes.
No inventory. No order forms. No leftover boxes.
Built for teams, schools, and groups
Youth sports
Uniforms, travel, tournament fees — raise real take-home money between practices and bedtime.
Schools & PTA
Class trips, playground gear, classroom extras. Short campaigns that fit the school calendar.
Clubs & bands
Scout troops, bands, community groups. Everyone gets a shareable store link.
Kids as sellers: Yes — with a parent, guardian, or the adult organizer. Public pages show a display name and sales totals only, never a child's contact information.
What you keep (and what you do not split)
- Your organization keeps 50% of the taffy subtotal.
- Shipping is buyer-paid ($7.95 flat) — never part of your split.
- Packs start at $15.
- Goals on the dashboard are take-home dollars, not gross checkout totals.
- Payout within seven days after the fundraiser closes.
- No mystery fees.
Why we keep campaigns short
Choose a 4- or 7-day window. Orders ship straight to buyers. No leftover inventory at your house. Short campaigns create urgency — sellers share once, supporters order while it's top of mind, and you're done in days instead of weeks.
