The review
Steunactie is a Dutch donation-crowdfunding platform operated by Sponsor Europe B.V. from Reeuwijk, which has supported individuals and nonprofit organizations since 2003. It is aimed squarely at community fundraising - sports clubs, associations, schools, classes, foundations, charities and churches - across the Netherlands and Belgium, and presents itself as a trusted, low-cost Dutch platform.
Payments are handled by PSD2-licensed providers - Mollie and PayPal for incoming donations and Payaut for payouts - rather than by Steunactie itself. The platform charges a percentage-based fee plus a small fixed amount per donation, both quoted inclusive of Dutch VAT, with some payment methods adding a further variable cost. Donations follow a keep-it-all model with no minimum target and are paid out weekly, with the option to pause payouts.
Its strengths are simplicity and a clear, VAT-inclusive pricing structure tailored to Dutch and Belgian community causes, with no minimum target required to receive donations. The platform's reach is regional: the interface is available in Dutch, English and French, and while donations can be received from abroad, the product is built for Benelux fundraisers. Organizations needing broad multilingual or multi-currency international coverage may find it narrower than pan-European competitors.
Steunactie supports iDEAL and WERO, Bancontact, major credit cards, PayPal and manual SEPA bank transfer, and can pay out to recipients internationally. Security is handled through SSL encryption and PSD2-regulated payment partners, and the platform shares infrastructure with sister sites Spendenaktion.de and Spendenaktion.at for the German and Austrian markets.
