Platform review summary
Double Good popcorn fundraiser reviews
Double Good is a virtual product fundraiser. Each player opens a "Pop-Up Store" in the Double Good app, supporters buy gourmet popcorn that ships straight to their door, and the team keeps 50% of sales. Nobody handles order forms or delivers boxes, which is a big reason it's popular.
- Organizers love it. The app has about 35,800 ratings averaging 4.9 (checked Nov 2026).
- 50% to the team is a high split for a product fundraiser, and there are no minimums or up-front costs for the group.
- Buyer reviews are much more mixed. The most common complaint is price for the amount of popcorn, plus shipping.
- BBB lists 54 complaints in three years, mostly about refunds, orders and seller credit.
How Double Good works
The organizer creates an event, and each participant downloads the app and opens a Pop-Up Store, usually for a short window of about four days. Supporters order through the store link, Double Good ships the popcorn, and the team gets half of the sales. One school's FAQ listed bags at roughly $11–14 each, with shipping starting at $5.45 and capped at $13.95 in the contiguous US. Prices vary by flavor and over time.

Common complaints

The math teams should know
If a supporter spends $50 on popcorn, about $25 goes to the team. A $25 straight donation gets the team the same amount, though some supporters prefer getting something in return. Teams with lots of supporters who'd rather just give should offer both options.
How PledgeStop is different: There's no product markup. Supporters pledge on the team's performance and every pledged dollar goes to the team. PledgeStop takes no percentage of pledges. Each supporter pays a one-time $1 verification fee when they pledge, and PledgeStop currently covers card processing fees, so the team receives the full pledge amount.
