Understanding Fees on GiveSendGo

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. Below is a breakdown of what that looks like:

            Fee Type            Amount
GiveSendGo Platform Fee0% + $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

These fees vary based on where the campaign is based and, in some cases, where the giver is located.

For campaigns based in the United States, the processing fee 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

Every donation made on GiveSendGo goes further because we never take a cut. Your success is what drives us—and the generosity of the GiveSendGo community makes it possible. With no platform fees, your cause stays front and center.
