There are so many things to like about Givebutter. The ease of which it has given our donors to give money to the school, the texting feature is fabulous for our younger tech-savvy doors and this platform is FREE!!! The customer support goes above and beyond on any issue or questions we may have as an organization and even helps us customize many of their features. Our strategic campaigns, such as Giving Day, has resulted in bringing in more money since we started using Givebutter. It truly has been a game-changer when it comes to raising money.

Givebutter makes it easy to make your online fundraising campaigns looks amazing and to spark donor engagement. We were first drawn to them because we use a lot of crowdsourcing events, and their team fundraising tools are easy to use. We also livestreamed our virtual talent show through Givebutter and I am convinced that the ease of donating while watching through the platform helped us raise more revenue. Their customer service is also fantastic!

If you haven't heard of Givebutter yet, you're in for a treat. It's one of the easiest fundraising platforms to use out there and it doesn't take much time to learn how to use it effectively. The platform itself is easy to navigate, especially as they continue to release new features and updates.
Cody Hays
Executive Director
Marketing Mission
Givebutter focuses on the customer. They are responsive to feature requests, and they listen to users of their software. As a one-stop for nonprofits, it has great potential, as it can replace a CRM tool, a text blast tool, a ticketing platform, and potentially more. The ease of passing along the fees to donors has saved our organization quite a bit of money.

Givebutter has TRANSFORMED our fundraising! Givebutter makes donating and sending acknowledgment effortless for our team. I love how easy it is to build out campaigns and search for donor information.
