## L’avis

iDonate.ie is an Irish online fundraising platform founded in 2011 by father and son Paddy and Alan Coyne, based in Tuam, County Galway. It describes itself as one of Ireland's largest fundraising platforms and supports a wide range of fundraising types, including standard donation pages, crowdfunders, charity raffles, and event fundraising.

The platform operates a 0% platform-fee model, charging a transaction fee of 1.95% + EUR0.25 per donation to cover payment processing, with no setup or monthly costs. A donor-covers-the-fee option lets supporters absorb that transaction cost on behalf of the cause, which can reduce the net deduction for charities.

iDonate's strength is its deep focus on the Irish market, where it serves charities, community causes, clubs, schools, and corporate fundraisers, and where it reports having raised over EUR125 million for more than 6,000 causes. The trade-off is geographic: it is built around Irish fundraising and euro donations, so it is less relevant to organisations seeking a multi-country or multi-currency platform.

Beyond standard donation pages, iDonate supports crowdfunding campaigns, recurring and once-off giving, charity raffles, and event registration, making it a broad fundraising toolkit for Irish nonprofits and community groups rather than a single-purpose donation widget.
