GivingGrid does not charge you any fees!

With GivingGrid you only pay third party credit card processing fees directly to the payment processor. Those range from roughly 2-3%, plus a small transaction fee. And, if you’re set up as a 501c3 nonprofit with PayPal, you only pay 1.99%, plus a transaction fee.

Beware: Be sure to check what other fundraising platforms charge for payment processing. You might be surprised. We recently heard as high as 7%, plus a transaction fee. That’s a big deal!

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 from us and GivingGrid assumes all the risk! Sound fair?
