Raisely

Recenzja

Raisely is an Australian-founded fundraising platform launched in 2016 to give charities and nonprofits a modern, fully customizable alternative to template-bound donation tools. It is used by thousands of charities and supports peer-to-peer and team fundraising, regular (recurring) giving, appeals, DIY fundraising and ticketed events across markets including Australia, New Zealand, the UK, the US and Canada, among others.

The platform is operated by Raisely Pty Ltd and is now part of Velora, an integrated nonprofit-software suite that also includes Aplos and Keela; it is governed by Australian law. Raisely's core product is funded by optional donor tips rather than a subscription, with an optional paid plan as an alternative, while card and PayPal payments are handled and charged by Stripe and PayPal directly. Australian GST applies where relevant rather than EU VAT.

Raisely's strength is design flexibility: organizations can build white-label donation pages and entire campaign microsites without writing code, retain ownership of their donor data and avoid lock-in contracts. For Australian, UK and North American charities running peer-to-peer or recurring-giving programs, this control is a major draw. European nonprofits, however, should note its reliance on Stripe and PayPal rather than native rails such as iDEAL or Bancontact, and that personal data may be stored in Australia, the UK or the US rather than the EEA.

Beyond donation pages, Raisely offers supporter and donor management, CRM integrations, automated emails, gamified fundraising and a developer API, with donations accepted in a wide range of currencies and multilingual campaigns generated from translation files. A paid Pro tier adds advanced integrations, marketing automation and single sign-on for larger organizations.
