For PTAs, PTFAs & school committees

Everything your PTA needs,
in one place.

Run your events, rally volunteers, sell tickets and see the total raised — all in one warm, friendly home. Here's what you get.

Run your events

Plan the fete
without the chaos.

One home per event

Overview, tasks, chat, rota, costs and files for every event — not scattered across six WhatsApp groups and a spreadsheet nobody can find later.

Start from a template

Never run a Summer Fete, Quiz Night or Disco? Begin from a ready-made template that sets the date and fills in a starter task list.

Copy last year

Running it again? Duplicate a past event — tasks and rota included — and just confirm the new date.

Rally volunteers

Fill every shift,
no nagging required.

Public rota links

Share one link and parents sign up for shifts — no Upfayre account needed. The link's preview updates as slots fill.

One-tap ‘I’ll help’

Turn willing parents into helpers. Any school member can raise their hand to join a team in one tap — you just approve, and they're in. No more begging in the class WhatsApp.

External helpers

Keep a reusable list of parents who help but aren't on Upfayre, assign them to rotas and tasks, and invite them to become full members when they're ready.

Raise money

Take payments,
no commission from us.

Sell tickets & merch

Take card payments for tickets and merchandise straight into your group's own bank account. Upfayre never touches the money and takes no commission — only the card processor's standard fee applies.

QR tickets & door check-in

Every paid seat gets a QR ticket. Scan people in on a phone, run a check-in desk on a laptop, or print an A4 fallback sheet.

Costs & profit

Track budgeted vs actual costs with receipts throughout planning, so your headline is net profit — not just what came through the door.

Stay connected

Keep everyone
in the loop.

Live event chat

Every event gets its own team chat with @mentions, reactions and file sharing — so decisions never vanish into a personal WhatsApp thread.

Notifications your way

In-app, email and push alerts for the things you care about, with per-type controls and one-click unsubscribe — or a tidy daily or weekly digest instead.

iOS & Android apps

Use Upfayre as a proper app on your phone, with push notifications when someone mentions you in a chat.

Not just for PTAs — sports clubs and community groups use Upfayre too.

Free to start. Full when you need it.

Up to four events a year on the free plan; unlimited events, ticketing and year-on-year reports on the Full plan at £75 a year. No card to start. No meeting with sales (we don't have any).
