At 4giving, we believe 100% of a donor’s donation should go to the fundraising campaign. In today’s digital world, organizations need to leverage the latest technology to help raise money for their cause. We provide cutting edge technology to improve access to important causes and enhance the digital donation experience.

For donations under $100, we rely on the generosity of a donor’s tip to fund the service which makes starting fundraisers and using our services more accessible to other nonprofits. This means, if a donor provides a tip/covers fees, 100% of the donation goes to the fundraising campaign. The generosity of tips really pays it forward for the next organization or cause!

4giving also makes it very easy to change the amount you, the donor, chooses to leave as a tip. Donors know exactly how much their credit card will be charged before it's charged.

4giving's credit card processor, Stripe, does charge for use of their credit card processing service, read more here.

Due to maintenance and security expenses, for donations over $100, 4giving automatically adds a 5% Platform/Security Fee. However, 4giving makes it easy for donors to cover these fees during checkout. If donors cover fees, 100% of the donation goes to your fundraiser. We would like fundraising to be FREE for all nonprofits and causes - and we've tried to make that goal a reality with the options and checkout experience.
