Simple, fair fees - no hidden charges!
We believe in keeping our charges simple and transparent. Unlike some other fundraising platforms, we do not charge to simply register a campaign. We do not ask your donators to make a "contribution to our operating costs" - we think that this deters people from donating to your campaign - or at least to think twice about how much they donate. Nor do we charge an additional payment processing fee.
Our Basic Service is comparable with the service provided by other fundraising platforms and our marketing fee for this is a competitive 3% of all funds raised, including Gift Aid. Simple and fair. And if you opt for our unique Premium Service, where we help to create and manage your campaign, our marketing fee is just 5% of funds raised - still less than most other fundraising platforms.
