Coral

Recensionen

Coral is a Spanish donation crowdfunding platform dedicated to solidarity causes (crowdfunding solidario), used by NGOs, foundations, associations, and individuals to raise money for social, animal-rescue, education, environmental, health, and international-cooperation projects. It operates in Spanish and focuses on the Spanish market, where it hosts hundreds of active causes.

The platform charges a 0% platform commission and is sustained instead by voluntary donor tips (propinas). Payment processing is handled by Stripe at 2.9% plus EUR 0.25 on donations above EUR 5 (and at a higher rate on very small donations of EUR 1 to EUR 5); donors are offered the option to cover this processing cost at checkout, and Coral reports that more than 98% do, so the cause receives the full donation amount.

Its strength is fee transparency for Spanish causes: a clear zero-commission model with optional donor-covered processing and automatic donation certificates for entities accredited under Spain's Law 49/2002. The trade-off is a single-country focus and reliance on Stripe-supported payment methods rather than a broad set of local rails. For Spanish nonprofits and grassroots causes, the model is straightforward; organisations needing multi-country reach may require a broader platform.

Coral issues tax-deduction certificates automatically for accredited nonprofits, and its donor-covers-fees prompt is designed so that the headline donation reaches the cause intact, a feature it emphasises for building donor trust.
