Start Keeping More Donations
Credit card companies charge processing fees. That’s how they make money. Fundraising platforms charge platform fees. That’s how they make money. Givebox charges no additional platform or transaction fees over the credit card companies fee of 2.9% plus 29 cents. Read the fine print everywhere else…nobody else does that. Even though most platforms claim to be free, they most certainly are not. Start keeping more of your money.

Gene Elliot Foundation
“Givebox was a godsend. We started the Foundation in the wake of Gene Elliott’s passing and because of the platform, we were immediately able to host our first event. The Foundation board members had little experience with nonprofit fundraising or hosting a charitable event. Givebox streamlined the entire process and equipped us with the necessary platform to sell tickets, take donations, and keep in touch with those who contributed to the event’s success. I can’t image how our first event would have gone without it. Since then, the Foundation has continued to rely on Givebox for all of our payment processing needs.”
Jason Marsili Chair | Gene Elliott Foundation
Juglife
“Givebox technology gives us peace of mind to focus on our why– the impact. We know that the donations and digital systems for funding are efficiently handled and secure so we can focus on building water wells near schools and villages in Uganda and impacting over 25,000 kids in U.S. through our water education tours.”
Kez Reed | Founding Partner, Juglife Foundation
Superhero Project
“Givebox has provided a multi faceted platform that is not only user friendly but incredibly donor driven. The fast growth we have seen in fundraising this year has been in part due to Givebox and its ability to connect with what we truly need in a portal. We recommend Givebox to anyone looking to maximize their fundraising efforts and confidently secure donations.”
Kelly Gallagher | Founder, The Superhero Project Inc.
Out of Sight Faith Foundation
“I use Givebox’s end-to-end fundraising platform for my events to raise money to attempt to cure the very same cancer that took my eyesight.”
Jake Olson | President, Out of Sight Faith Foundation
After The Glow
“Givebox has been incredible to work with. We are a 100 percent volunteer organization that helps raise funds for children traveling for Retinoblastoma. Givebox has allowed us to have access to our funds quicker than any other processor we have ever used. Our travel needs can be very urgent and this has been huge. We have grown our contact list by over 400 donors our first year by having access to clean easy to read donor reports. We have increased our donations online by over 60 percent the first year using Givebox, and our processing cost and software cost were down approximately 12 percent. I’m personally spending a lot less time writing tax receipts for our donors now that we can automate our receipt process. Our board now has full access to our financials and we can make payments without needing to track down our treasurer and the orgs checkbook. Givebox helped us network with other nonprofits in our space helping us gain national exposure for Retinoblastoma funding.”
Kevin Sheridan | President, After the Glow
33 Spine Align
“Givebox’s versatility in fundraising has provided our organization with unparalleled technology in comparison to any other platforms in the space. Some key aspects of using this service is the ability to transfer monies with few cost and zero penalties. Givebox also gives us the ability to create detailed reports as well as review our yearly fundraising history for tax and business purposes. It has been and continues to be a staple in 33’s daily organizational duties and goals.”
Ryan Normandeau | President, 33 Spine Align
HBSCA
“Givebox has made a real difference for our small non-profit with the fantastic support we get from the team, from getting it all set up, to website buttons. The ongoing organization and donor support is priceless to us. We love having both the control to set up our own events, tickets, etc. and knowing that help is right there! I recommend Givebox to all my local non-profits!”
Elizabeth Ramirez | President, HBSCA

Givebox makes it easy for us to connect with donors, keep track of contributions, and create multiple campaigns to reach our fundraising goals as we strive to expand consumer services for Muslim Americans during the Islamic holiday month of Ramadan. As a small, somewhat new nonprofit organization, we are very grateful for the exceptional service and user- friendly platform provided by Givebox!

FAQs
Yes, the technology is really free. 100%. It sounds too good to be true, but there is NO catch! We want to help every nonprofit do good and help better our world. It costs your organization nothing to use Givebox. Every time you collect a donation or payment through Givebox, you or your donor only pay the standard processing fee. No platform fees. All of your technology is paid for by Givebox.
Givebox was created based on the idea that any nonprofit, regardless of size, who wants to be able to do good should be able to do so without the limits of time or money. That means having access to premium fundraising and banking technology that is not only affordable, but FREE.
Sadly, statistics show that 80% of all nonprofits cannot afford the current technology and processing fees set forth by leading fundraising platforms. And the other 20% of nonprofits are grossly overpaying for current technology and processing fees. That means that if nonprofit software was free, as is with Givebox, more donations can go to programs that help the world instead of middle men.
Unlike other fundraising platforms, Givebox IS the Payment Facilitator (PayFac). Not just a simple 3rd Party Payment Processor mind you, but an actual registered PCI Compliant PayFac partnered with Worldpay. Why is that important? Well, that means that we have the ability to keepprocessing fees lower than the industry standard rate. Givebox has an unlisted, fixed rate of 2.9% and 29 Cents per transaction. The majority of this small cost covers card issuer and banking fees while a small fraction goes to technology maintenance. This is a business model built on altruism, not greed. But something had to be done to help the people who are helping the world.
Great question. YES! The technology within your Givebox account today will always be free. That being said, we get requests daily to research and develop various other products and tools that may come with certain costs. But your organization will NEVER be forced to pay for anything that you don’t want or need. In fact, not only will you be able to mix & match one-time and bulk purchases, we are also experimenting with scenarios where you can “test drive” tools before you purchase them.
