Bidpal, Inc.

What Bidpal, Inc. does

Bidpal, Inc. operates as OneCause, a unified fundraising software platform built for nonprofit organizations. Founded in 2008 and headquartered in the USA, the company provides an integrated suite that powers event fundraising, silent and live auctions, online donations, text-to-give (Text2Give), peer-to-peer campaigns, golf tournaments, and ticketing, with embedded payment processing through OneCause Payments. The platform is sold on a subscription basis with annual billing and multi-tier plans across Auction & Events, Peer-to-Peer, and Online Fundraising & Text2Give product lines.

The platform architecture is modular but interconnected, combining three primary solution pillars: Auctions & Events (with sub-modules for mobile bidding, ticketing, virtual fundraising, event administration, and golf events); Online Fundraising & Text2Give (including donation forms, online giving sites, personal fundraising pages, and SMS-based donations); and Peer-to-Peer fundraising software (supporting runs/walks/rides, giving and awareness days, DIY supporter-driven campaigns, ambassador programs, and tribute/memorial pages). This structure allows customers to adopt the suite incrementally while operating against a unified donor and payment infrastructure.

Go-to-market combines enterprise field sales (Request a Demo motion with dedicated fundraising experts) with product-led self-serve exploration (Test Drive/Take a Tour), supplemented by a channel partner directory of fundraising consultants and auction package providers. Target customers span health and human services, education, arts and culture, community organizations, foundations, and faith-based sectors, with 14,000+ organizations using the platform to engage 2.5M+ supporters and process more than $8B in lifetime fundraising. The company is now a subsidiary of Bonterra following a 2025 acquisition that combined OneCause's event and peer-to-peer capabilities with Bonterra's broader nonprofit technology stack.
