Frequently Asked Questions
How does Cheddar Up work?
At the highest level, Cheddar Up is a platform designed to easily help groups collect payments and information.
Group organizers create an online collection page on Cheddar Up (for just about anything), share their link with their group or community, and voila…payments and information start flowing in.
Cheddar Up tracks all payments on your collection’s Manage view and you withdraw your funds to a connected bank account whenever you wish (for no fee). Looking for more information, check out our home page, or for more detail, watch our demo.
Do my payers need an app or account?
No. When you share your collection link, payers simply click and pay right from their web browser (it’s a beautiful experience whether they’re on desktop or mobile). There’s no need for your community to download an app. They can also pay as a guest, which means they don’t have to worry about remembering any passwords. Easy peasy.
Do I have to pay extra for support?
Never. At Cheddar Up, great support is available to you no matter what plan you’re on. Whether you are troubleshooting or brainstorming, we’ll have a live human there to support you along the way.
What payment methods do you accept?
Cheddar Up allows you to accept payment via: Credit Card, Apple Pay, Google Pay, Link, Cash/Check, and eCheck (eCheck is available on our Pro and Team plans only). Learn more
Can I track cash/check payments?
Yes, you can add a Cash/Check payment option to your collection. This gives your community optionality. This feature allows payers to indicate to you that they want to pay offline while still keeping their payment intention (and any associated information!) tracked and tidy for the organizer. The organizer then needs to have alternate means for gathering those offline payments.
What fees do my payers see at checkout?
By default, the transactional convenience fee is passed to the payer. That means you, as the organizer, can collect money online for free! Want to cover those fees instead, or cover fees but give payers the option to pay them for you? You have the ability to configure these settings as necessary. Learn more.
How do I get the money I collect?
You can withdraw money you collect online whenever you’re ready – for free. Once you connect a bank account, you can manually initiate withdrawals at your convenience. Happen to be collecting for a group gift? Save time and send funds to your recipient via a gift card link allowing them to choose from hundreds of gift cards.
Do you have point-of-sale or a card reader?
Yes! Cheddar Up has Bluetooth card readers that work with our iOS and Android mobile apps, or skip the hardware and use Tap on Mobile for iPhone and Android. This allows you to easily transition from online to in-person payments as necessary, keeping tracking of both all in one spot. Learn more.
Is Cheddar Up secure?
Extremely. All Cheddar Up users’ financial-related data is sent directly to our PCI-compliant partner, Stripe, using Transport Layer Security (TLS) and is stored on Stripe’s secure servers (Cheddar Up never sees or stores this financial information). Stripe processes billions of dollars annually and maintains the highest security standards. Cheddar Up takes security seriously and takes every measure to encrypt and protect users’ personal information on our site.
Can I cancel my premium plan?
Yes! You can cancel anytime and downgrade to our free, Basic plan.
