We don't charge any fees!
And when we say we charge you ZERO FEES, we mean zip!!
No transaction fee, no nothing!!
Most fundraising or crowdfunding websites take 5% - 10% off of every donation, plus credit card fees. That can add up to between 8% - 13% off every donation! That means on a $100 donation, as little as $87 makes it to the fundraiser. Crazy, right?
With GivingGrid you only pay third party credit card processing fees (roughly 3%) directly to the payment processor, so on that same $100 donation, you get about $97. Big difference!
So how does GivingGrid pay for its operating expenses and keep the lights on?
We apply a unique method where the donor is given the option to add a small contribution for us, in addition to their donation. Think of it as a tip. If they think we're providing a valuable service, they give us a little something. If not, they have the option to lower it or make it zero and give us nothing. No matter what, the fundraiser never gets hit with a fee and GivingGrid assumes all the risk! Sound fair?
