Here's How to Simplify Your Team Budget

May 16 2022

Managing your team budget doesn't have to be painful! Simplify finances with THIS budgeting and payment solution.

FlipGive is a free team funding app that makes raising money a breeze. Teams earn cash back for buying the things they already need. Get paid whenever you shop, dine out, book hotels or activities.

Recently, we interviewed hundreds of parents and coaches just like yourself who manage their team's finances - and the results are in! Take a look below to see the most common frustrations and how FlipGive can help you simplify your season.

1. Team budgets are disjointed

Did you know know that it takes new managers 2-3 years to develop a budgeting system for their team that isn't a maze of spreadsheets, bank statements, cash and loose receipts? 

That's why we designed FlipGive Budget with you in mind. Easily plan your team's finances before the season starts and balance your budget throughout the year:

  • Automatically track income and expenses
  • Real-time graphs and charts
  • Generate reports to share with your team or association for financial transparency
  • Set up a payment schedule and automatically send reminders

FlipGive Budget is 100% free to use and solves the main problem of your budgeting tasks being handled by different tools that don’t connect to each other.

2. Nagging parents for fee payments

Reminding parents to pay their fees is awkward. Tracking who paid and how much everyone still owes can be a mess of emails, checks, cash and spreadsheets. Some teams are starting to streamline this process with digital payment systems like Venmo which really helps but you still need to manually enter that information into your budget.

Well, FlipGive Budget includes an automated fee collection! Once turned on, the system will automatically email each family with a link to send their payment.

3. Banks aren’t built for teams

Finding time to physically go to the bank and paying monthly fees don’t jive with your schedule or budget. The current banking system was not designed for teams, but FlipGive Banking was.

  • Securely open a checking account online in 5 minutes
  • $0 monthly account fees
  • 1% Cashback VISA Debit card mobile app with remote check deposit
  • FDIC insured, big bank level security

**FlipGive is a financial technology company and is not a bank. Banking services provided by Blue Ridge Bank, N.A.; Member FDIC. FlipGive Debit Card is issued by Blue Ridge Bank, N.A. pursuant to a license from Visa U.S.A. Inc.

Team money is traditionally frustrating. FlipGive is breaking both tradition and frustration with FlipGive Budget and Banking and they are both 100% free!
