Frequently asked questions

How is this digital Givebutter Wallet different from a bank account?

Powered by Stripe Financial Accounts, Givebutter Wallet is a built-in financial account for nonprofits, designed to streamline the process of receiving and paying out funds directly from your Givebutter account. Unlike traditional bank accounts, this digital wallet does not require a minimum balance, and nonprofits automatically earn <code><span interest-rate-element="sync">2.5%</span></code> APY rewards2 on their balance. Learn more about Givebutter Wallet in our help center →.

Is my account eligible for FDIC insurance?

Yes. Your Wallet deposits are eligible for pass-through FDIC insurance up to $250,000 USD3 through Fifth Third Bank N.A., Member FDIC, if the deposits meet certain requirements. FDIC insurance is per depositor and per financial institution.

How quickly can I withdraw funds?

With Givebutter, settled donations are automatically added to your Wallet daily, where they immediately start earning rewards. When you’re ready to move funds out, you can withdraw to an external bank account with free standard payouts (1–2 business days), or you can make payments directly from your Wallet with virtual or physical spend cards. 

What are the tax implications of rewards?

Organizations using Givebutter Wallet have access to all financial data for easy reporting on APY rewards2. In some cases, these rewards may be considered taxable income. If your organization earns $600 or more in rewards in a calendar year, Givebutter will issue a Form 1099-MISC to support your tax reporting. 

We recommend consulting with your tax advisor to understand how these rewards apply to your organization’s specific situation.

Are there any hidden fees?

No, Givebutter Wallet is free to use for all nonprofits, with no monthly fees, no minimums, and no surprise charges.4 Learn more about Givebutter’s 100% transparent pricing → 

​​What is a spend card & how does it work?

A spend card is a Visa commercial card linked directly to your Givebutter Wallet balance. Instead of transferring funds to a bank, you can make payments and purchases from your available Wallet funds. Givebutter offers both virtual and physical spend cards, issued from the Finance section of your dashboard. Learn more about spend cards →
