All of Givebutter's standard features are completely free for anyone to use. Users don't pay anything to create an account and run a campaign. For these reasons, tips go a long way toward sustaining our low-fee business model.
Any time you see the option to leave a tip on the Givebutter page, the organization you are supporting has opted in to allow its supporters to tip Givebutter within its payment portal.
We give our organizations the option to remove tips from their page. Many decide to include the option to tip because we provide a cutting-edge donation service with the best rates in the industry. We do our best to make optional tips as clear and transparent as possible during the donation process.
What if donors don't want to tip? 🤔
Tips are always optional; donors can edit or remove a tip from their donation. Even if no one ever tips us on your campaign, as long as tips are enabled, Givebutter is free for you to use.
The screenshot below highlights the point in the checkout process where a supporter can opt out of leaving a tip or edit the preset options.

We pride ourselves on being transparent about our pricing. You can view our pricing page for a full breakdown of our different products and their associated fees. Without your tips, we would not be able to support our low-fee model and help you get back to what you do best: making the world a butter place.
