They chose Zeffy over Donorperfect

They chose Zeffy over Donorperfect
"Zeffy was a no-brainer because of their no-fee policy. The fees from other fundraising platforms were holding us back from fully supporting our mission."
Zeffy is a dream solution for our fundraising. Working alongside the Zeffy team, we’ve had our two best fundraising years in our agency’s 60-year history! Customer service and integrity are second to none; it's obvious that they care about our success. We were shocked when the first donation came through at 100% of the donated amount. When they say "no fees," they actually mean it!
