Raising Funds
Raising Funds
In Football Tycoon, Raising Funds is your hands-on way to bring in extra cash. Unlike sponsorships and stadium sales, this feature requires active tapping, letting you directly boost your club’s bank balance whenever you need quick money. Whether you’re saving up for a top player or an important facility upgrade, Raising Funds can make the difference.
💵 What is Raising Funds?
Raising Funds is a clicker-style mechanic that lets you tap the screen to earn money. Each tap generates a small amount of funds, and over time, you can trigger bonuses and special events to supercharge your earnings.
You’ll find this feature by tapping the money icon on the Main Screen. It’s especially useful if your sponsors aren’t paying enough yet, or you need extra cash between games.
👆 How to Raise Funds
- Tap the ball or fundraiser button on the screen.
- Each tap instantly adds money to your cash reserves.
- The more you tap, the more you earn.
- Tapping quickly helps you reach bonus milestones faster.
Basic Tap Earnings
- Each tap gives a base amount of funds.
- Example: $1 per tap (default), but this can increase based on sponsor bonuses and other factors.
🟦 Donor Bonus: Free Money Boost!
As you tap, you fill up the Donor Bonus bar. Once it’s full, you get an instant lump sum payout, based on your current sponsor’s Donor Bonus value.
🔢 How It Works
- Donor Bonus = Extra funds awarded when you hit a tap threshold.
- The required taps to earn the Donor Bonus are calculated as:
Donor Bonus Requirement = Sponsor Donor Bonus / Funds Per Tap / Sponsor Level
For example:
If you have a Sponsor Level 5 and a Donor Bonus of $1,520, you’ll need fewer taps to reach the bonus compared to lower-level sponsors.
🧠 Strategy Tip:
Higher sponsor levels = lower tap requirements for big payouts. So, better sponsors = easier fundraising!
🏁 Fundraiser Event: The Ultimate Challenge
Occasionally, you’ll unlock a Fundraiser Event, a high-speed tapping challenge with big rewards.
🎉 How It Works
- The event triggers randomly while you’re tapping in Raising Funds.
- You have a limited time (10 seconds) to tap as fast as possible and fill the fundraiser bar.
- If you succeed, you earn a huge cash reward, calculated by:
Fundraiser Reward = Fundraiser Reward Modifier × Sponsor Donor Bonus
(With a base modifier of 0.5, the more generous your sponsor, the bigger the payday!)
🏃♂️ Event Frequency
- The chance to trigger a fundraiser starts at 10%.
- It increases by 5% every 100 taps you make in the Raising Funds screen until an event occurs.
- After an event or if you leave the screen, the chance resets to 10%.
🧮 Raising Funds: Formulas & Numbers (For Strategy Fans)
- Funds Per Tap = 1 (default)
- Donor Bonus Requirement = (Sponsor Donor Bonus) ÷ (Funds Per Tap × Sponsor Level)
- Fundraiser Reward = Fundraiser Reward Modifier × Sponsor Donor Bonus
- Fundraiser Tap Goal = Fundraiser Time × Random Tap Rate (depends on min/max settings)
🔥 Pro Tips for Maximizing Funds
- Higher-Level Sponsors = Easier to reach Donor Bonuses and better Fundraiser payouts.
- Tap Consistently: The more you tap, the more likely you are to trigger Fundraisers.
- Time Your Taps: If you’re saving for a big upgrade or player, plan focused tapping sessions in Raising Funds mode.
- Upgrade Other Income Streams Too: Raising Funds is great, but don’t rely on it alone. Combine it with Stadium Facilities and Sponsors for balanced income.
- During Promotions: Use Raising Funds after League Promotions when new, higher-level sponsors can drastically improve your Donor Bonuses.
✅ Why Raise Funds?
- Get quick cash for urgent expenses.
- Fill funding gaps between sponsor payments or low-attendance matches.
- Take advantage of big Donor Bonuses from top sponsors.
- Stay active in managing your club’s economy, especially in early to mid-game stages.
