Instead of layering tools onto a separate CRM, nonprofits can manage donors, campaigns, and engagement inside Givebutter from day one.

There’s no required subscription with Fundraise Up, but fees apply to every gift. Givebutter gives nonprofits a way to eliminate platform and processing costs entirely.

Purpose-built for nonprofits, Givebutter continuously launches innovative product updates inspired directly by changemakers. In contrast, Fundraise Up centers on improving online giving flows.
Fundraise Up centers on high-converting online donation checkouts embedded on your site. Givebutter goes beyond forms with built-in events, auctions, and a native CRM—so nonprofits can manage fundraising and donor data in a single platform.
Free forever thanks to optional donor tips
Fundraise Up costs include a 4% platform fee plus additional payment processing fees. Givebutter gives nonprofits a path to $0 platform and $0 processing fees so changemakers keep 100% of funds raised.

How is Givebutter free?
Thanks to optional donor tips, Givebutter’s core fundraising features are free for all nonprofits. When tips are enabled, you pay $0—backed by the Givebutter Guarantee. Prefer to hide tips? Disable them and pay a flat 3% platform fee plus standard processing fees. For more advanced tools, Givebutter Plus starts at $29/month.
While Fundraise Up support earns strong praise, Givebutter has thousands more reviews—and was named G2’s #1 Nonprofit Software of 2026.
