Givebutter

Recenzja

Givebutter is a US fundraising platform built for nonprofits, founded in 2016, that combines donation pages, events, and donor management in a single free-to-start product. It serves nonprofits and changemakers and operates primarily in the United States, settling donations in US dollars.

Its pricing centres on a tip-funded model: there is a 0% platform fee across campaign types when donor tips are enabled, and a flat 3% platform fee applies when tips are disabled. With tips enabled, nonprofits don't pay processing fees under the Givebutter Guarantee; with tips disabled, processing is 2.9% + 30c for cards and 1.9% + 30c for ACH. There are no limits or fees on payouts, and an optional Givebutter Plus subscription adds automation and advanced reporting from $29 per month.

Givebutter's strength is delivering an all-in-one, genuinely free toolset to nonprofits when donors cover the optional tip — a model that resonates with smaller US organisations. The trade-offs are a US-only footprint and single-currency settlement, plus a reliance on donor tipping that, if disabled, reverts to a 3% platform fee. Broad payment options include cards, PayPal, Venmo, ACH, Cash App, donor-advised funds, and digital wallets.

For US nonprofits that want fundraising, events, and donor management in one place without committing to platform fees, Givebutter is a strong fit, particularly where donors reliably opt into tips. Organisations operating outside the United States or needing multi-currency settlement will find its single-market focus limiting.
