Boost your band’s Christmas fundraising with Tipd

Tuesday, 28 October, 2025

This festive season, you can make it easier than ever for your audience to support your band – even if they don’t carry cash. Our upcoming live webinar with Chris Anderson, Founder of Tipd, will demonstrate how Tipd can transform your Christmas performances into fundraising successes.

Why Tipd?

Tipd is a digital donations platform built for live performance groups. Bands collect donations seamlessly via a personalised QR code, with built-in Gift Aid reporting – all without needing a card reader. Unlike other platforms, Tipd ensures bands keep 100% of every donation, making it simple and cost-free (for BBE members).

Hear it from the bands: “Setting up Tipd was refreshingly easy. We’ll be using it at concerts, carnivals, and summer performances. It’s a flexible, promising way to connect with supporters – and we’re excited to see where it takes us.” – Stannary Brass Band

Webinar highlights

  • Live demo of Tipd’s easy-to-use system
  • Practical tips to encourage donations at concerts, collections, and festive performances
  • Guidance on customising your donation page and QR code to engage supporters
  • How to make the most of free membership access and early adopter benefits

Event details

Tuesday 18 November 6-7pm, online via the Zoom webinar platform.
