Donorbox
Raise more
Donorbox reviews paint a picture of a well-respected fundraising solution for nonprofits, but Givebutter provides more features and event management tools—like silent auctions—to help changemakers succeed.
.svg)
Pay less
Givebutter is 100% free, 100% of the time, thanks to optional donor tips. Nonprofits can set up donation pages, manage events, and track donor data without paying any of the monthly fees you’ll find with Donorbox.

Give better
Always free and always human, Givebutter customer service has some of the highest ratings out there. And unlike Donorbox, Givebutter is number one in customer satisfaction across several categories.
Raise more
While Donorbox offers a wide variety of quality features, they don’t provide auction software, mobile ticket scanning, or the kind of automated donor communication that nonprofits can access with Givebutter. For organizations that want all of their fundraising tools synced together in one place, including silent auctions, Givebutter is the best choice.

To access all of the popular features many nonprofits look for in fundraising software (and which Givebutter provides free), Donorbox fees include monthly subscriptions, platform fees, and other add-on costs. The Donorbox cost also includes payment processing fees, which Givebutter’s secure payment server charges as well, but both platforms give donors the option of covering these fees.

How is Givebutter free?
All features are free thanks to optional tips we receive from donors. If you prefer to disable tips, a small platform fee applies instead.
Give better
While Donorbox reviews rank the donation platform highly for ease of setup and ease of use, its numbers for quality of support just don’t stack up. Givebutter’s customer service is not only highly rated—it’s free, too. Donorbox users (free or paid) don’t have access to live chat support and have to pay for live training and workshops.

Hear from a real nonprofit that switched from Donorbox to Givebutter

%201.svg)
After using a combined solution of PayPal, Stripe, and Donorbox over the last 15 years, we began migrating our donors to Givebutter in 2019. The difference has been noticeable and beneficial. Givebutter has streamlined our interactions with donors, decreased our workload in processing and transferring donations, and decreased our costs.
Darrell S.
Pastor of Discipleship and Communications, Alamo Heights United Methodist Church
Methodology
Givebutter’s editorial staff aims to bring you the most transparent and objective comparisons possible. We sourced these comparison metrics directly from fundraising platform websites and third-party review sites like G2, Capterra, Trustpilot, and more. Score data gathered on June 2023.
