Creating the Ultimate Eventzee Scavenger Hunt App Experience

Creating the Ultimate Eventzee Scavenger Hunt App Experience

At Eventzee, we’re always working to make sure your event is exactly what you need, no matter what niche, market, or type of event you’re planning. We’re proud to offer three different types of Eventzee platforms to meet your needs!

Single Scavenger Hunt App Event

At the most basic level, a single event is perfect for any one-off occasion. If your city is having a special festival, your charity or school is having a fundraiser, or you’re just looking for a fun way to spruce up your next event, a single event option could be perfect for you. 

Single events from Eventzee are easy-to-build, include custom branding options, and unlimited challenges within the event. These events are priced with a per-person licensing model, with very affordable options for both big and small events.

Annual License

The annual license option is perfect for organizations who are looking to host multiple events throughout the year with various numbers of players, all for one upfront fee. 

East Stroudsburg University, located in northeast Pennsylvania, is utilizing an annual license with Eventzee to host multiple events for its students and staff throughout the school year. With the extended license, they have freedom and flexibility to create a multitude of events that keeps their students excited to see what comes next.

“Having an annual license on Eventzee’s scavenger hunt app platform is the perfect way to keep our students engaged with ongoing events throughout the year,” said Joseph Akob, Executive Director of ESU’s Student Activity Association. “We started this school year with a scavenger hunt that helped introduce new students to all of the university’s departments and offerings, and we can’t wait to start executing our next event!”

White Label

From the app interface to the download page in the app store, white label apps are fully customized versions of the Eventzee app that represents your brand to the fullest potential. Include colors, logos, images, and other aspects of brand identity through the entire app experience.

For a small development fee, our game developers take your requirements to build the game from scratch that you’ve always dreamed of having for your customers.

The town of Jupiter, Florida, recently worked with the Eventzee scavenger hunt app developers to create their white label app, Passport to Jupiter. Players, composed of both visitors and locals of the Jupiter area, are able to download the Passport to Jupiter app from either app store to access the free, ongoing event. Custom challenges within the app awarded points which could be used to earn a free Jupiter prize pack. 

“Eventzee’s white label program was the perfect solution to what the Town of Jupiter was looking for in a digital platform,” said Shawn Reed, Community Relations Manager/PIO for the Town. “Eventzee was able to take our vision of the app and put it into a platform that was easy to use while maintaining the look and feel of our program.”

TUSTIN, CA, August 11, 2022 – Freeze Tag (OTC: FRZT), a leading creator of location-based mobile social games, is proud to celebrate another year of partnership with McKinney, Texas Parks and Recreation. McKinney utilized Freeze Tag’s Eventzee scavenger hunt app to encourage locals to explore every year during the month of July.

McKinney’s “RecQuest” was free to play and available for the whole month of July, which is National Parks and Recreation Month. The event encouraged visitors and local residents to explore an expansive list of features throughout McKinney’s parks and recreation locations, as well as having featured challenges at specific events throughout the month. 

RecQuest included multiple types of challenges. Players were tasked with finding hidden QR codes throughout the locations and at events, submitting photos and videos at different places, answering questions about McKinney, and also following instructions to complete GPS challenges. 

“The Eventzee team loves working with parks and recreation departments like McKinney,” said Craig Holland, CEO of Freeze Tag. “Partnering with McKinney for National Parks and Recreation Month is a great solution to help people explore the mysteries of their own backyards.”

This year’s RecQuest had a variety of prizes and drawings to encourage player participation. All RecQuest players were entered to win McKinney Parks & Recreation merch, but earning more points also received entries into bigger prize drawings. Every player who reached 1000 points was entered to win a grand prize pack, and every additional 1000 points earned players additional entries. 

“We used the Eventzee app to facilitate our 2022 RecQuest game.” said Ryan Mullins, Assistant Director of Parks and Recreation for the City of McKinney, Texas.  “The response to RecQuest was very positive. We loaded the game with hundreds of challenges centered around residents getting out and enjoying our many parks and recreation facilities.”

While the RecQuest is only offered for the month of July, players who can be both visitors or locals should look to utilize McKinney’s unique offerings year-round.

Chronogram Launched 2022 Chronogrammies with Eventzee Scavenger Hunt App

This year, Eventzee teamed up with Chronogram Magazine for the annual “Chronogrammies” event to utilize Freeze Tag’s Eventzee scavenger hunt app platform. 

The Chronogrammies is a yearly event which encourages people who live in and around Hudson Valley, NY to participate in nominating and voting for their favorite businesses of all kinds. With over 125 different nomination categories, participants could nominate any type of business, but also included some of the area’s top hits for favorite outdoor spots, local artists, restaurant wait staff, best schools, and more.  

Once the initial nomination round had concluded, Chronogram utilized the Eventzee platform to create an immersive scavenger hunt app event which guided participants to Hudson Valley’s top Chronogrammies-nominated businesses during the 45-day voting period. 

“We were really excited to be part of such a unique event like the Chronogrammies this year,” said  Craig Holland, CEO of Freeze Tag.  “One of the best ways to use the Eventzee platform is to support local and small businesses by encouraging locals and visitors to explore the community around them.”

The scavenger hunt featured photo challenges, which awarded players with points towards winning grand prizes like spa packages, dinners out at local favorite eateries, cases of wine, and more. 

The winners of this year’s Chronogrammies were recently announced and will be posted on the Chronogram website later this month, followed by a blow-out bash celebration. Until then, anyone visiting Hudson Valley can still take a peek at all businesses and locations that were nominated during the event, and check out the best the area has to offer.

The new app augments the paper booklet edition of the Passport, which increased the reach of the program while reaching new demographics. The Passport to Jupiter app includes an interactive map of more than 70 points of interest included in the full list of passport sites, each offering a unique spin on what Jupiter has to offer.

The program is perfect for clients, like Jupiter,  who dream about customers engaging with their brand, but have found it to be cost prohibitive to build a mobile app from scratch.

“Eventzee’s white label program was the perfect solution to what the Town of Jupiter was looking for in a digital platform,” said Shawn Reed, Community Relations Manager/PIO for the Town. “Eventzee was able to take our vision of the app and put it into a platform that was easy to use while maintaining the look and feel of our program.”

The Passport to Jupiter is a free event to join, and those who log 30 or more site visits, or receive 1500 points, within the list are awarded a participation badge. Participants can bring the virtual badge to Jupiter Town hall to claim a Jupiter prize pack!

Gearing Up For Summer Tourism with a Scavenger Hunt App

Gearing Up For Summer Tourism with a Scavenger Hunt App

Summer is right around the corner! For many places, this can mean it’s time to get ready for an influx of tourists who are ready to start exploring again after a long winter.

If you’re looking for a way to get these folks engaged on the next level, look no further than hosting an event through the Eventzee scavenger hunt app. Here are some ideas to get you started:

Season-long Activities

Towns with an active tourist population benefit from having a tool that allows for engagement on another level. For many towns, this is often a passport-style scavenger hunt that guides people through the town’s hottest locations, including historical landmarks, small businesses, restaurants, and more.

Unlike holiday or festival events, season-long scavenger hunts can take the pressure off of the winning aspect of a game and allow people to really dig into all that the town has to offer. A lot of Eventzee clients enjoy offering a prize to all participants who finish the event in a given time period, such as a small gift card that benefits the downtown shops and restaurants.

Festivals or Fairs

Festivals and fairs of all kinds can benefit from a tool like a scavenger hunt app, like Eventzee. Guests may be overwhelmed with all that’s offered within a certain time period. With Eventzee’s scavenger hunt app, you can highlight local vendors and their offerings, get rid of any printed materials, and include a map.

In addition to being a great resource for attendees, you can allow specific vendors to purchase advertising space within in app, leaderboard style, to generate additional revenue for the event.

Small Business Saturdays

Small Business Saturday doesn’t just have to be confined to one day in November. Small business owners work hard every day of the year, and they should be appreciated for that!

Using Eventzee’s scavenger hunt app and the QR code feature, visitors can be encouraged to engage with small business shops and restaurants throughout a whole downtown area. This past year, Downtown Center Business Improvement District of LA hosted an event over multiple days to encourage visitors to visit specific parts of the city. The free event was created to encourage people to engage with local businesses, and participants were entered to win a nice prize at the end of the event!

Historical Sites

Historical sites benefit from utilizing a scavenger hunt app like Eventzee because it makes it easy for people to learn and explore without needing the assistance of a tour guide. Especially with Covid restrictions, access to a pre-built educational event right from your smartphone can be key to making sure visitors have the best experience.

Utilize the Eventzee Scavenger Hunt App

A Guide to Peer-to-Peer Fundraising: Scavenger Hunt Edition

A Guide to Peer-to-Peer Fundraising: Scavenger Hunt Edition

Need new ways to keep your donors engaged? Running out of fresh, creative ideas for your next event? Get your supporters on their feet and out exploring with a peer-to-peer scavenger hunt fundraiser!

What is peer-to-peer fundraising?

Peer-to-peer fundraisers are a great, flexible fundraising option that gets your donors involved with your organization’s mission and helps your organization expand its reach. With a peer-to-peer fundraiser, rather than putting the responsibility of fundraising completely on your organization’s staff and volunteers, your supporters will help you spread the word and raise money on your behalf. 

While this might sound similar to crowdfunding, there are several key differences that set peer-to-peer fundraising apart. With crowdfunding, you’ll only need one webpage to direct people to for donations. The key to a successful crowdfunding campaign is promotion, so you’ll need to spend lots of time helping your crowdfunding page gain visibility through online sharing. 

Peer-to-peer fundraisers are a little more complicated in that multiple participants will have their own fundraising pages so they can raise money for you. Fundraisers will reach out to their networks and actively pursue donations for your organization with their own fundraising pages. Deciding which format works best for you will depend on how many resources you have and what your goals are.

How does peer-to-peer fundraising work?

When you plan a peer-to-peer fundraiser, you need to recruit volunteer fundraisers. In addition to your primary peer-to-peer campaign website, your fundraisers will each make their own webpages where they’ll collect donations from their family and friends. Your fundraisers will make donation asks across social media platforms, through email and text, and any other channel of communication they use. Your organization will support fundraisers throughout the campaign and track progress on individual fundraising pages and the general campaign website.

Planning any peer-to-peer fundraiser is a huge undertaking and relies upon how engaged your fundraisers are. Make your fundraiser more engaging with gamification elements like team competitions and a live fundraising leaderboard.

Plan your peer-to-peer fundraiser

The first step of the planning process for your peer-to-peer campaign should be setting goals for your fundraiser.

  • How much do you want to raise?
  • Is this a rolling or time-based campaign?
  • Who is your audience and what is the best way to reach them?

Try to make sure your goals are SMART goals: specific, measurable, achievable, realistic, and time-based. If you’re having trouble with making your goals, use data from past fundraisers to determine what you can expect for the fundraiser you’re currently planning.

When you’re planning a peer-to-peer scavenger hunt, it’s also important to consider goals specific to your scavenger hunt. Will your scavenger hunt be an educational experience? Do you want to make it location-specific? Are there social aspects to the scavenger hunt, and will participants be in teams? The format of your scavenger hunt can also inform the format of your peer-to-peer campaign, so make sure you plan out the basics of your scavenger hunt before you start fundraising.

If you’re planning on setting up your scavenger hunt in your local community, plan to reach out to local fixtures in your community and businesses to see if they would be okay with being a part of the hunt. Their participation might be as small as hanging a QR code in a storefront window or interacting with your participants in person. Just make sure you have the proper permissions before sending your hunters off to seek out clues.

Find the right software

Planning a peer-to-peer fundraiser is time-consuming, so you’ll need all the help you can get. With the right software, designing a campaign website and helping your fundraisers design their individual fundraising pages doesn’t have to take up a lot of space on your plate. To make sure that you give your supporters the best experience possible, start by picking the right fundraising software for your campaign. Choose a peer-to-peer fundraising software that empowers you and your fundraisers to easily build fundraising websites with drag-and-drop elements and engaging features like a campaign thermometer.

Now that you’ve decided on the right fundraising software, it’s time to find a platform for your actual scavenger hunt event. For a peer-to-peer scavenger hunt, you’ll need event-specific software that makes it easy to build out a scavenger hunt event. Whether you want a pre-built and ready-to-go scavenger hunt or a hunt that you can customize, your software should be flexible and include features that keep your participants connected.

Qgiv partner, Eventzee, provides a custom mobile scavenger hunt platform, which is a great option for all different kinds of fundraisers. Whether it’s for 200 people or 2,000, Eventzee’s feature-filled and user-friendly smartphone app will get your fundraiser going in no time.

The Eventzee app is easily accessible via smartphone, and the Eventzee administrative tools make running a scavenger hunt easier than ever. Create challenges for your scavenger hunt, message players, approve submissions, and more, all from your computer or mobile device.

Market your scavenger hunt fundraiser

The success of any fundraiser is highly dependent on how well you market it, and for peer-to-peer fundraisers, this could not be truer. With multi-channel marketing, you can reach a wide audience to drive sign-ups for your fundraiser. Use email, social media, direct mail, and more to recruit fundraisers and raise awareness of your peer-to-peer campaign.

Your peer-to-peer fundraising website will also be a helpful marketing tool for your peer-to-peer fundraiser, so make sure it’s informative and includes pictures and impact statements to encourage registrations and donations. This will be the main resource for your fundraisers and donors, so it’s important to design it to be easily navigated and as useful as possible.

Provide fundraising guidance

Your supporters probably aren’t seasoned fundraisers, so they’ll need a little support to meet their fundraising goals. Create and compile a treasure trove of resources for your volunteer fundraisers so they don’t have to stress about how to solicit donations from their networks. Email and social media templates, a comprehensive collection of fundraising tips, and social sharing buttons will help fundraisers old and new meet their individual goals.

Stay in touch

Keep your supporters motivated and engaged by providing them with updates throughout your campaign. Send out emails to mark major fundraising milestones and let your fundraisers know how much money they’ve raised. When you have hesitant fundraisers, send them words of encouragement and let them know what their support means to your organization. Motivate them with impact statements, and make sure they have all the resources they need to be successful fundraisers.

Collect data

To improve your fundraising strategy and increase your impact, collect data throughout your peer-to-peer fundraising campaign. Keep your CRM database updated with your donors’ giving histories and how they’ve engaged with your organization. 

Manually updating your database throughout your campaign can take time and effort. Instead, try to find peer-to-peer software that can integrate with your CRM software. That way, whenever someone interacts with your organization by making a donation or filling out a volunteer form, you can collect that information and keep your database automatically up-to-date with donations, email addresses, phone numbers, and more.

Thank your donors

Each time you receive a donation, make sure you show your gratitude to your donors. Send out thank-you emails and add personalization tokens to make your emails more personal to your donors. Make sure you add impact statements to let your donors know how their gift will be used and help your mission. 

For an added bonus, give your fundraisers thank-you email templates so they can also send out their own messages of gratitude to their generous supporters. Sending out thank-you emails will leave your donors with a good impression of your organization. It’s one of the first steps to increasing your retention rates and building your donor base.

Final thoughts

With a peer-to-peer scavenger hunt fundraiser, you’ll keep your supporters engaged with a unique, one-of-a-kind fundraising event they’re sure to remember. For more resources on creating a successful peer-to-peer fundraiser, check out these links:

Using a Scavenger Hunt App for National Employee Appreciation Day

Using a Scavenger Hunt App for National Employee Appreciation Day

National Employee Appreciation Day (March 4, 2022) is right around the corner! If you’re looking for a fun way to engage your employees, whether they are at home or in the office, the Eventzee scavenger hunt platform is the perfect tool!

Here’s a few ideas to get you started:

Boost Overall Engagement

You may appreciate your employees, but this is the perfect holiday to make sure they know that! Often it seems like it may be hard to take a break and leave your desk, but with a scavenger hunt app event, you can get employees up and engaged with their coworkers and executives!

Company Trivia

How well do your employees know your company? Make it fun for them to learn more about different departments by creating dynamic quiz questions. If your team is in the office, use our QR code feature to test them on how well they know the different departments, where certain people have their offices, or communal spaces throughout the building.

Build Camaraderie with our Teams Feature

With Eventzee’s unique team feature, employees can play the scavenger hunt in groups or individually. As an admin, you can choose to assign the groups ahead of time to get employees who don’t usually interact to join together, or you can make the event a competitive race between departments.

Connect with At-Home Employees via a Scavenger Hunt App

Since the work-from-home workforce is larger than ever, it can seem hard to have the “teamwork” morale that used to exist in the office. Eventzee’s scavenger hunt app allows you to let players join from anywhere. Allow employees to share their at-home set ups, or make a competition to see who has the most company SWAG on hand.

Prizes, Prizes, Prizes

If you’re looking to make this a super competitive event, use this opportunity to give out the best prizes you can think of. You can either give out a participation prize to all of those who complete the event in a given time period, or award something extra fun to the person who completes the event with the most points! Eventzee’s scavenger hunt app has a way to calculate points so there is never a tie, which means you can relax and let the app choose the winner!

How to Use a Digital Platform for Youth Events

How to Use a Digital Platform for Youth Events

Throughout the pandemic, our society has shifted to an all-new level of the virtual world. For most, that has meant learning how to work virtually, utilizing video conferencing and digital platforms to keep life on a somewhat normal schedule. Even youth have had to adapt to a hybrid world, with many having the option to attend classes online. 

In a world that’s been packed with digital engagement in the last 2 years, it’s more important than ever for young people to take time to socialize with their peers any way possible. It can seem daunting to plan additional virtual activities that really engage participants on a different level, but here are a few ideas to get you started!

Let them create virtual teams: 

If you’re utilizing a scavenger hunt platform to host an event from home, you can still allow youth to engage with one another recreationally. As an admin, you can either assign the teams or let players choose their own. This is great not just as an ice breaker, but also a way to encourage teamwork through digital means. They can give themselves a team name, photo, and description to kick off the fun!

Let them be the star of the show: 

Youth love to tell stories, which is the perfect use of Eventzee’s video submission challenge feature. Admins can use the scavenger hunt app video challenge in a variety of ways, including read-alouds, skit performances, or even just to explain how they got the answer to a problem. Let them embrace their creativity using technology! 

Use the scavenger hunt app to include learning in a fun way: 

With so much digital presence, it’s really important to be innovative with the way learning takes place. Using Eventzee’s scavenger hunt app allows you to mix things up with 7 different challenge types – including photo, video, quiz, text, and more. Whether you want students to explore creativity with a photo or showcase their comprehension of specific materials with a quiz, Eventzee challenges can be fitted to a number of needs. This allows admins to design an event that works perfectly for their group of participants, no matter what type of event it may be!

Don’t let at-home participation stop the fun: 

Most importantly, as we look to enter the third year of the pandemic, make sure to use a platform like Eventzee’s scavenger hunt app that allows your players to join the event at home or in person. This allows for anyone to participate, no matter what might be happening. Nothing will replace a 100% in-person event, but you can enhance your hybrid events to make the most for all attendees!
