Zeffy, a registered B Corp™, is the only 100% free fundraising software for nonprofits. Too many nonprofits can't access modern technology because their budget just won’t allow it. We believe your mission deserves more. We are focused on developing the best online fundraising platform, and offering it for free so that every nonprofit can focus on maximizing its impact.
We offer our technology services to nonprofits 100% free of charge so that donations are used solely to support your mission. In return, we give donors the option to make a voluntary contribution to us.
At the payment confirmation step, donors have the option (but are never obliged) to contribute to Zeffy. This is our only source of revenue and allows us to cover all of the fees for the 50,000+ nonprofits that fundraise with Zeffy.
Regardless of whether donors add a voluntary contribution, 100% of the money fundraised on Zeffy will go into your bank account.
The only requirements to use Zeffy, are:
Be a registered nonprofit or charity in Canada or the United States.
Have a bank account that belongs to your nonprofit organization which you can connect to your Zeffy account.
In the US, you do not have to have 501c3 status to use Zeffy. The only requirements are listed above. You will be asked to provide your EIN number as proof of your nonprofit status, but no matter the type of nonprofit or charity, you can use Zeffy for fundraising.
Zeffy has been supporting charities for the last 7 years. Providing 100% free and user friendly fundraising tools.
“We were incurring a ton of fees for our past fundraising platform and Zeffy has helped us receive so much more of our donations.”

Zeffy is very simple, allows for a lot of customization and seamlessly integrates into our website. The fact that all of this is free is still wild to me.

We couldn't believe there was a free payment platform for our Girl Scout group. Zeffy took ZERO fees from us, which is huge when you run on very small amounts of money.

We were ready to sell tickets in less than 30 minutes. The reporting capabilities were better than some other paid-for sites.

Since using Zeffy, our conversion rate of donations has skyrocketed. It's an easy platform to use. Plus customer support has always been responsive and helpful!
Zeffy relies entirely on optional contributions from donors. At the payment confirmation step - we ask donors to leave an optional contribution to Zeffy.
