What is Givebutter? 🤩

Givebutter is an all-in-one nonprofit fundraising platform that combines donation forms, fundraising pages, events, auctions, peer-to-peer fundraising, donor management (CRM), email marketing, payment processing, and more into a single system.

Instead of juggling multiple tools for fundraising, CRM, email, events, and reporting, nonprofits can manage everything in one easy-to-use platform with Givebutter.

Is Givebutter really free? 🤑

Yes! Givebutter’s core fundraising, marketing, and CRM features are free to use. Givebutter uses a transparent tip-or-fee pricing model. When optional donor tips are enabled, your campaign is covered by the Givebutter Guarantee, which means no platform fees and no processing fees—your nonprofit keeps 100% of the funds you raise, even if donors don’t cover fees.

If you choose to disable donor tips, a flat 3% platform fee applies, plus standard payment processing. This gives nonprofits flexibility while keeping pricing predictable and transparent. Read more about Givebutter pricing →
