Donorbox is
free
if you get less than $1,000 in donations for a month. If you reach $1,000
for a month, we charge a small platform transaction fee of
1%
for the month's donations. Other donation softwares charge 2-5% or more.
Donorbox invoices & charges your billing card at the beginning of the next
month if any fees are incurred during the month.
Additionally,
Stripe
and
PayPal
merchant accounts charge 2.9% + $0.30 for
credit card
processing. For
ACH
(direct bank donation), Stripe charges 0.8%, with a cap of $5.
Processing rate can be
reduced for registered nonprofits.
