How it works
Giving from a Donor Advised Fund used to mean manual portal logins outside your donation form, and an anonymous payout from the provider. DAFpay is changing that.
Now, with a clear DAFpay button on your Donorbox OmniGive™ Donation Form, donors can quickly and easily select their DAF provider, log into their account, select a donation amount, and make their payment.
In just a few seconds, donors can recommend and submit grants to your nonprofit, and all DAF gift and donor details are automatically synced into your Donorbox account.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is DAFpay?
DAFpay by Chariot is a digital payment option that allows donors to give to nonprofits directly from their Donor-Advised Funds (DAFs) straight from a nonprofit’s online donation form. It functions like any other payment method button, streamlining what was traditionally a complex, off-site administrative process into a seamless online checkout experience. It allows donors to recommend and submit grants from hundreds of DAFs that represent 85%+ of the market directly through your OmniGive™ donation form. With DAFpay, your organization can receive contributions from major DAF providers like Fidelity Charitable, Daffy, local community foundations, and more.
How does DAFpay make giving from a DAF easier?
Instead of opening a separate browser window, logging into their DAF provider's portal independently, searching for your nonprofit by tax ID, and navigating manual forms, donors can complete the grant recommendation directly from your form. A process that once took several minutes is reduced to just a few clicks, without compromising security—donors can verify credentials and complete multi-factor authentication directly within a pop-up window.
Are DAFs only for high-net-worth donors?
A common misconception, but no! While DAF donors do make larger gifts on average (23x larger than non-DAF donors, averaging $3,934 per gift), they are still within reach for most organizations. In fact, two-thirds of all DAF gifts are under $1,000.
How much does adding DAFpay as a payment method on my Donorbox donation form cost?
The DAFpay payment method is only available to U.S. organizations on a Donorbox Pro or Premium plan, along with many other exclusive benefits to level up your fundraising strategy. Processing fees total 4.5% of each transaction: a 1.6% Donorbox platform fee and a 2.9% Chariot fee.
