Money, fees, and reports
How the money flows through your raffle, what RaffleLink takes, and how to track it.
This section covers everything money-shaped about running a raffle on RaffleLink — what RaffleLink processes versus what you collect at the booth, when the fee applies, how payouts arrive, how to read your remittance, and the reports you'll need at tax time.
If you read one article first, make it How the money works. It explains the language used across analytics, payouts, and emails — once that clicks, the rest of the section makes sense.
