PICKLEJAR GIVES: PLATFORM ENCOURAGES SOCIAL IMPACT AS HURRICANE IDA APPROACHES NEW ORLEANS
All Proceeds Donated Through the Designated Page Go Directly to the Red Cross and Other Local Charities
NEW ORLEANS – August 28, 2021 – PickleJar, an emerging live entertainment and cashless tipping app, has fully activated its Social Impact feature as they encourage users to support Hurricane Ida Relief organizations. As Ida is expected to hit New Orleans on Sunday (8/29), PickleJar is already using its seamless money transfer capabilities to make a difference in the community. Using the “Throwing Notes” function, PickleJar makes it so easy for non-profits to raise money for specific needs in the area. Search “PickleJar Gives” in the app and all money donated through this page will go directly to the Red Cross and other local charities.
With complete transaction and donor visibility, 100% of donations are transferred in 24-48 hours to the selected non-profits with no cost to the organization. PickleJar’s award-winning app for smartphone and browsers gives users the instant ability to donate, in the moment, with a simple tap of the screen. Plus, they get rewards from PickleJar for supporting all causes.
PickleJar artists are also welcomed to participate in Social Impact initiatives. Artists are able to share their tips with non-profits, group members, or any other verified association such as the Red Cross. Artists can select a benefiting organization to increase awareness and raise money for a good cause. When fans tip the Artist or performance, the predetermined portion of the fan tips are automatically split and sent directly to the individual or group.
“A core functionality of PickleJar is its ability to make a Social Impact,” said Jeff James, PickleJar chief executive officer. “We are able to activate quickly and use our platform, and artist engagement, to support local communities when it is needed most.”
PickleJar is an expanding suite of Artist-First technologies developed with a simple idea – “help others achieve the greatest value for their creative talents and visionary pursuits.” PickleJar’s gaming-inspired features give fans instant access to performers through private direct messages and picture sharing – earning them loyalty rewards, achievement badges and exclusive “Tip-to-Win” giveaways. Artists keep 100% of the money earned on the PickleJar cashless tipping platform and can even share tips received other band members or in partnership with fundraising performances to benefit local and national non-profits.
