FeeStructure

Our Minimal Fee Structure

At GiveForward, we believe in total transparency.  That means making it easy for users to find our fees.

GiveForward charges Fundraisers $1 to create a fundraising profile and 3% of total donations to cover the costs of maintaining GiveForward.org. In addition, the credit card companies charge Fundraisers a processing fee of 2.6% plus $0.20 per transaction, which means that an average donation of $40 costs the fundraiser $2.44 in total fees.

There are no fees for Donors.

Just to give an idea of where GiveForward falls in the spectrum,
the most popular online giving sites charge between 4.75% and 25%.
