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. To get the nonprofit discount please email sales+nonprofit@stripe.com and apply at PayPal's Nonprofit Center.
