With Zeffy, nonprofits keep every penny you give. And that can really add up.

Last year,

$102 billion

was donated online to small and medium sized nonprofits.

~3%

of all donations go to covering credit card and transaction fees.

This adds up to around

$3 billion

in lost donations every year.

That $3 billion could do a lot of good. Like, feed

1.4 million

children for an entire year.

Nonprofits are changing the world. Zeffy's free fundraising platform is breaking the mould to help them.

How do we do it?

Zeffy relies entirely on voluntary contributions from donors like you.

What is a voluntary contribution?

A voluntary contribution is an additional amount you can choose to give to support 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.

How does it work?

If the nonprofit you're donating to uses Zeffy's platform, you’ll be asked if you’d like to give an additional contribution at the end of your transaction.

Collectively, we keep Zeffy free.

Not everyone gives every time, and that's okay. Our voluntary contribution model is just that: voluntary. If you choose not to leave an additional contribution, your nonprofit still gets 100% of your donation.
