For Supporters' Trusts & Community-Owned Clubs

Your trust is set up. Now raise the income to back it.

Community shares get you started — but a club needs steady, recurring income to keep going. Here are the ways community-owned clubs raise money month after month, all run from one platform with no licence and no volunteer spreadsheets.

Owning the club is step one. Funding it is the rest.

Supporters' trusts and community benefit societies are brilliant at the founding pot — a community share offer, a launch campaign, the headline moment. That's the easy part.

The harder part is the bit after — the steady monthly income that pays the groundsman, the kit, the coach buses, the youth section, the season after season after season.

That's where the work actually is. And that's exactly what Play Fund Win is built for.

One place, your brand, your data.

Stop juggling a donation page, a volunteer spreadsheet and a separate lottery operator who owns your supporters.

Play Fund Win puts donations, recurring pledges, reward tiers and licence-free prize draws in one club-branded place — with a supporter database the trust owns.

Branded to the club

Your crest, your colours, your story — never a third-party brand.

A supporter database you own

Every pledger, member and entrant captured in one GDPR-compliant database — yours to keep and export.

One transparent service fee

No setup, no subscriptions, no licensing fees — one clear fee on funds raised.

The compliance bit

No licence, no registration, no fuss.

Every prize draw on Play Fund Win runs with a genuine free-entry route built in. There's always a free way to enter with the same chance of winning. That structure keeps the draw outside lottery rules — so no Gambling Commission licence and no council registration.

Donations and rewards stay cleanly separate from the prize draw. Trustees can present them separately in reporting and accounts.

A genuine free-entry route on every draw — same chance of winning

Random winner selection with a full audit trail every draw

Donations and rewards run cleanly separate from the prize draw

You never touch the regulator paperwork

General information, not legal advice.

Supporters' trust fundraising — your questions

Community shares are great for the founding pot, but the day-to-day budget needs steady recurring income. The mix that works for most community-owned clubs is supporter pledges (one-off and monthly), a monthly 100 Club, a digital matchday or weekly draw, reward tiers for sponsors, and trust memberships. Run from one platform, branded to the club, with a supporter database the trust owns.

Back the club you own.

The recurring-income tools community-owned clubs use — one platform, your brand, no licence needed.
