Overview
Zeffy is a fundraising platform that is free for nonprofits, with no paid tiers and every feature included. It covers card and transaction fees itself and is funded by optional contributions donors may add at checkout; it says about two-thirds of donors contribute and that nonprofits keep the full donation either way[13].
Zeffy includes a donor management tool that keeps donor information alongside donations, events, memberships and receipts, plus free newsletters and emails and Donor Mail for printed thank-you letters and appeals. The company is a registered B Corp, offers the platform in English and French, and reports more than 100,000 nonprofits using it and more than US$2 billion raised[13].
Zeffy removes cost entirely for small organisations, but its donor-management functions are lighter than those of dedicated systems, and the donor-contribution prompt at checkout may not suit every organisation’s donor experience.
