A bridge between rewards you forget and seats you actually want.
Wishbone isn't an app you download — it's infrastructure that lives inside the bank app you already use, converting points you'd never redeem into real fundraising and real recognition. Think Centurion Lounge, but for your campus.
Any card, any bank
No new account or card needed. Works with the rewards you already have.
Give at your direction
Redeem your idle rewards and direct them to your school — no pledge drives, no phone calls.
Real contributions
Cash arrives at the athletic foundation just like any other gift.
You move up
Priority points credit to your account, improving your standing for tickets, parking, and experiences.

Two sides. One system.
Built for athletic foundations
Add an alumni giving channel that feeds directly into your existing priority point system — no new campaigns, no new asks.
Built for your portfolio
Turn idle points liability into a high-affinity redemption destination for your alumni cardholders — no new infrastructure required.
Two tailwinds converging at once.
Effective July 1, 2025: programs must share revenue directly with athletes.
Athletic programs now carry a new, recurring funding obligation that traditional fundraising was never designed to cover. A channel that reaches the ~95% of fans who never currently give opens real incremental capacity — without asking more from donors you already have.
Roughly a third of card rewards go unredeemed each year.
$33B+ sits as liability on issuer balance sheets. Fans say friction — not willingness — is what stops them from giving. Wishbone removes the friction: giving takes a swipe, not a pledge form.
