Customer reviews and testimonials

In just under a year, we’ve added over 100 recurring donors to our network— a 20% increase. And in spite of the COVID-19 pandemic, 2020 was our most successful year of fundraising yet. Donorbox’s simple, easy to use integrations have played an undeniable role in driving this growth. Under the hood, Donorbox’s control panels give our team quick day to day insights on donor retention and campaign performance. The control panel also makes it easy for us to get our entire team involved with donor relationships.

FAQ

How is Donorbox different from Stripe or PayPal?

While Stripe and PayPal are excellent payment processors that allow you to accept online transactions, they don't offer a specialized form to collect donations or store donor data. They also don't provide a good facility to manage recurring donations.

For more Donorbox features that are donation-specific and not offered by PayPal or Stripe, see our help article.

How do I pay the Donorbox platform fee?

Like Stripe and PayPal with their payment processing fees, Donorbox deducts our platform fee directly from your donations. From each donation transaction, we automatically deduct the processing fee for Stripe and/or PayPal as well as our 1.5% platform fee. This means you won't need to worry about paying any invoices or settling your billing retroactively.

This means you won’t need to worry about paying any invoices or settling your billing retroactively. See our help article for more details.

How do I receive a nonprofit discount from Stripe and PayPal?

Both Stripe and PayPal offer a discounted payment processing rate for registered 501(c)(3) nonprofits.

To apply with PayPal, visit their nonprofit center.

To apply with Stripe, email [email protected] with the information found here.

What's included if a donor chooses to cover the processing fee in their donation?

If you offer this cover fee option on your donation form, your donor may choose to include the donation processing fee as part of their donation. This fee includes both the payment processing fee from Stripe/PayPal and the Donorbox platform fee of 1.5%.

See our help article for more details.

Are there different fees for ACH bank payments?

Our Donorbox platform fee of 1.5% is capped at $25 for ACH bank payments. That means for an ACH donation that exceeds $1,667, the maximum platform fee we will charge for that donation is $25.

Since this is our platform fee, this is on top of Stripe's payment processing fee of 0.8% (capped at $5) for ACH bank donations.
