Anedot
Raise more
Unlike Anedot, Givebutter’s all-in-one fundraising platform equips changemakers with custom donation forms, fundraising event tools, auction software, and an easy-to-use donor CRM.
.svg)
Pay less
Givebutter offers completely transparent pricing, so you’ll never be saddled with an unexpected bill. The Anedot donations platform also comes at no cost to users, but it has a limited range of fundraising features.

Give better
Givebutter is the top-rated fundraising solution when it comes to user satisfaction and customer support. Anedot support is also highly rated, but only Givebutter holds live webinars and product training.
Raise more
While both Anedot and Givebutter offer customers access to free customizable donation forms, marketing and engagement tools, and a variety of payment processing options, Givebutter is packed with a lot more fundraising tools—such as robust auction and event management software, additional payment processing options, and a built-in CRM with custom filtering and segmenting.

How is Givebutter free?
Givebutter’s core fundraising features are free thanks to optional tips we receive from donors. If you prefer to disable tips, a small platform fee applies instead. Givebutter Plus offers an additional suite of advanced features starting at $29/month.
Give better
Reviews note that Anedot’s customer service is quick and efficient when it comes to helping customers tackle software issues. Comparatively, Givebutter offers a lot more resources like free live chat support, webinars, and product training. For nonprofits that want to make the most out of the platform and take their fundraising to new heights, a Givebutter education can’t be beat.

Givebutter is making it easy to have a no-cost donation portal, events and ticketing portal, and donor CRM all in one—plus handy tools like embeddable donation forms. Other platforms like Givebutter either offer fewer features and tools or cost a lot (or any) money.
