Natural treats. Meaningful support. Ongoing fundraising for Australian dog organisations.

LET US BARK FOR YOU


Why We Created This Program

Bark with Buster created its Charity Partner Program to help dog rescues, foster networks, welfare organisations and community groups raise ongoing funds through products dog owners already purchase and use.

Rather than asking supporters to make another donation, participating organisations can earn funds when their community shops through their unique Bark with Buster fundraising link.

We manage the online store, orders, delivery, customer service, tracking and monthly payments. Our partners focus on sharing the opportunity with their supporters.


How the Program Works

1. Your organisation is approved

We learn about your work, confirm your organisation details and prepare your partner profile.

2. We create your fundraising link

Your organisation receives a unique tracked link and, where available, a memorable supporter code.

3. We prepare your promotional materials

We provide practical content and graphics to help you introduce the program to your supporters.

4. Your community shops

Supporters purchase Bark with Buster products through your tracked link.

5. Your organisation earns funds

Your organisation receives 20% from qualifying product sales connected to your partner account.
