Donation processing that keeps more of every dollar given
Processing fees pulled out of restricted funds and donors who abandon clunky forms.
A clear, optional donor-covers-the-fee checkbox lets supporters offset processing costs.
Illustrative profile, not an industry benchmark. Yours will differ — that is the point of the analysis.
Built around how non-profits and charities actually take payments
Not a generic bundle with your industry's name pasted on the invoice.
- Non-profit interchange rates where you qualify
- Donor-covers-the-fee checkbox that recovers most processing cost
- Recurring giving with account updater to protect monthly donors
- Event, text-to-give and kiosk donation options
- Tax-receipt friendly reporting and CRM integrations
The fee traps we look for in non-profits and charities
- Downgrades — transactions falling out of their best interchange category through missing data
- Padded pass-throughs — card-brand fees marked up and presented as cost
- Junk monthlies — statement, PCI, annual, regulatory and "service" fees
- Equipment leases — non-cancellable terms that outlive the hardware
- Tier reclassification — the same sale quietly repriced into a worse bucket
Non-profit payment processing, answered

The only way to know your real number is to divide total fees by total volume on your statement — or send it to us and we will label every line, usually within 4 hours.
There is no single best system. We match hardware to how you actually take payments: ticket size, staff count, whether you sell online, and which software you already run. For non-profits and charities we most often deploy non-profit interchange rates where you qualify.
