Givelify

Recensionen

Givelify is a US-based giving platform built around a mobile-first donor experience, serving churches, places of worship, and nonprofits. Its consumer app is among the most downloaded and highly rated giving apps, with a large base of donors using it to give to causes and congregations across the country.

For organizations, Givelify combines the donor app with online donation pages, text-to-give, QR options, donor management, and analytics. It accepts major card brands - Visa, Mastercard, Discover, and American Express - and settles deposits quickly, with the platform funded through a per-donation transaction charge rather than setup or subscription costs.

Givelify's strength is the polish and reach of its donor app, which lowers friction for repeat and mobile givers - a meaningful advantage for congregations whose members give regularly. The trade-off is that it is oriented toward recurring faith-based and nonprofit giving rather than complex peer-to-peer or event campaigns, and its footprint is US-centric. For US congregations this focus is ideal; for European or campaign-heavy fundraisers it is limiting.

The platform offers a Spanish-language app version and dedicated onboarding support, including a giving-success coach for organizations. Card-only payment support and US-oriented operations mean it lacks European local payment rails such as iDEAL or Bancontact, which organizations outside the US should factor in.
