Crowdfunding Campaigns
Live thermometer campaigns with matching gifts and projector mode.
Givebutter’s “free” crowdfunding defaults a 15% tip ask on donors, dropping conversion 30 to 40% — a $10,000 campaign quietly loses $3,000 to donors who never complete. Classy charges nonprofits $299+/month subscription plus platform fees. Giving Toolbox includes crowdfunding with Pro at a transparent 0.5% platform fee. Launch a public campaign, add matching gift offers, display a live thermometer at your event, and track every donor from a single app.

THE HIDDEN COST
What “zero fees” actually costs your organization.
Givebutter, Zeffy, and RallyUp charge your nonprofit nothing to run a crowdfunding campaign. They fund themselves through a 15 to 20% tip pre-selected onto every donor's checkout. Boards see $0 in platform fees on the P&L. What they never see is the campaign revenue that never showed up because donors hit a surprise fee at checkout and closed the tab.
30–40%
Of donors abandon their donation when they hit an unexpected fee at checkout. Chance2Win checkout analysis of tip-funded platforms.
$3,000
Lost per $10,000 campaign on a tip-funded platform. 75 of 250 donors never complete their donation.
$0
Donor tip asks on Giving Toolbox. Ever. The 0.5% Pro platform fee is charged to the organization, transparent to the donor.
