How CharterVote works
From the first office on the ballot to a sealed, verifiable result, here is the whole journey
One simple idea
CharterVote keeps who voted apart from how they voted. Your members prove they are eligible once, and from the moment a ballot is cast it carries no link back to the person who cast it. That single separation is what makes an election both private to take part in and provable to everyone afterwards.
You do not need to be technical to run one. Most organisers set up their first election in a few minutes, share an access code, and let CharterVote handle the rest.
Four steps from setup to sealed record
Every election on CharterVote follows the same clear path, whatever its size.
Utwórz wybory
Add the offices to be voted on, list the candidates, set the opening and closing times, and add any registration questions you need.
Accredit your members
Share your access code so members can register. You approve who is eligible, and each approved voter receives a single-use token by email.
Members vote in private
During the voting window each member casts a ballot with their token. The ballot is anonymous from the moment it is cast, with no connection to their identity.
Zapieczętuj i opublikuj
When voting closes the count is sealed into a tamper-evident record and a verifiable certificate, which every member can check for themselves.
Set up in minutes, not weeks
No paper to count, no spreadsheets to reconcile, and no specialist to hire. Build the ballot, invite your members, and watch results come in live. Run a single board vote or a federation-wide election the same way.
Built for real organisational votes
Everything most associations, boards and unions need, in one place.
Multi-office elections
Elect a whole committee in one ballot. Add as many offices and candidates as your election needs.
Szybkie ankiety
Need a fast decision rather than a full election? Create a poll and share a link to gather responses in minutes.
Custom registration
Ask the questions that decide eligibility, from membership number to chapter, and approve voters with the answers in front of you.
Real-time results
Watch turnout and results update live through the voting window, so you always know where the election stands.
Verifiable certificates
Every completed election produces a sealed certificate of record with a code anyone can scan to confirm the outcome.
Ballots in many languages
Reach every member in a language they read. CharterVote presents the experience in several languages out of the box.
Wynik, który członkowie mogą sprawdzić samodzielnie.
Gdy wynik jest zapieczętowany, dowód pozostaje publiczny. Bez uprzywilejowanego dostępu, bez cichych zmian i bez niczego przyjmowanego na wiarę.

When the result will be questioned
A contested chair, a recall, a rule change half the membership opposes. For those, a nominating board keeps the count sealed until enough of your own trustees agree to open it, so nobody has to take the organisation's word for it.
