Understanding Fees on GiveSendGo
At GiveSendGo, we believe in generosity—and that includes not charging fees to use our platform. Instead, we're funded by the generosity of campaign organizers and givers who choose to support us. That means 100% of what you raise goes to your cause, minus a small fee from our third-party payment processor.
Fee Breakdown
GiveSendGo platform fee: 0% + $0 per donation
Third-party processing fee (U.S.): 2.7% + $0.30 per donation
Third-party processing fee (Non-U.S.): 3.5% + $0.30 per donation, plus any applicable currency exchange fees
How Processing Fees Work
For campaigns based in the United States, the processing fee applied to a donation depends on where the giver is located. Donations made by U.S.-based givers are processed at the U.S. rate. Donations made by givers outside the United States are processed at the non-U.S. rate.
For campaigns based outside the United States, all donations are processed at the non-U.S. rate.
Built on Generosity, Powered by You
We never take a cut—your success is what drives us, and the generosity of the GiveSendGo community makes it all possible. To learn more about how you can support GiveSendGo, see Supporting GiveSendGo.
