Stripe standard pricing for US accounts and domestic cards, as published by Stripe in October 2026. International cards add 1.5%, and currency conversion adds 1%. Tap to Pay on iPhone and Tap to Pay on Android in the Mobile App add 10¢ per authorization. Fee examples are rounded to the cent.

### Donors can cover the fees. Most of them do.

At checkout, donors can add the processing and platform fees to their gift in one step, so your organization keeps 100% of the gift.

72%

of donors on Donatefy choose to cover the fees

Source: Donatefy platform data. Coverage is always the donor's choice, and results vary by organization.

#### 100% of the gift reaches the mission

- The donor's addition covers the processing and platform fees, so none of them come out of the gift.

#### Always the donor's choice

- An optional, clearly labeled addition with the exact amount shown before they pay. Never a surcharge.

#### Clear in your books

- Every gift records whether the donor covered the fee, so gross, fees, and net reconcile.

#### Leave whenever you want

- Month-to-month on every self-serve plan

- Hardware is owned, never rented back to you

#### Yours means yours

- Every donation settles in your own Stripe account
- Donor records and receipts are never deleted on downgrade
- Locked never means erased: reactivate and everything returns
- Your Stripe history is yours, with or without Donatefy

Integrations are add-ons on Starter, Growth, and Enterprise, priced per tool per month. Each one includes per-campaign mapping and the per-donation sync log.

If a subscription ever lapses, your kiosk shows a paused screen, never a brick: configuration and data stay intact and giving resumes the moment you reactivate. Prepaying Growth annually? Ask about the Launch Kit, which bundles a wall-mounted kiosk with your first year.

### Implementation, priced before you start

Guided setup is optional on every self-serve plan, and self-serve setup is designed to get you to a first campaign the same day.

#### Starter: $199, optional

A guided onboarding session covering campaign setup, receipt branding, and your first device.

#### Growth: $499, optional

Full implementation including integration mapping and device rollout. $249 with annual prepay.

#### Enterprise: custom

Multi-site implementation across chapters and funds, scoped with you and priced in your Enterprise quote.

### How Donatefy pricing is built

#### One rate per plan, published

A flat subscription plus one platform rate that is the same on every channel and donation type. The rate never scales with features, seats, or donor count.

#### Visible where you bank

Donations settle to your own Stripe account, and processing and platform fees appear as line items you can audit.

#### Donors can cover fees

Offer supporters the option to cover processing and platform fees, so your organization keeps 100% of every donation.

#### One flat fee per plan

The platform fee never changes by channel, feature, or donation type. Web, kiosk, handheld, and recurring all cost the same.

#### Hardware you own

Kiosks and readers are yours, not rented. Capital purchase, not a rental.

#### Leave when you want

Your Stripe account, donor relationships, and recurring plans remain yours. Staying should be a choice. [See how one platform compares to a patchwork of tools](https://www.donatefy.org/compare).

### Pricing questions

**Is there a free plan?**

Yes. Free is $0 a month with no card required. It includes the branded giving site, campaign pages, QR codes, embeds, recurring giving, the Donor Portal, and branded receipts, with a 1.0% platform fee.

**Is there a percentage taken from each donation?**

Each plan carries one flat platform fee: 1.0% on Free, 0.8% on Starter, 0.5% on Growth, and 0.25 to 0.5% negotiated on Enterprise. It is the same rate on every channel and donation type, with no fixed cents and no minimums, and higher tiers simply keep more. Payment processing by Stripe appears separately in your own account at the rates Stripe publishes, and donors can opt to cover fees at checkout.

**What does payment processing cost?**

Stripe processes every payment and sets the rates. Stripe standard pricing for US accounts is 2.9% + 30¢ for online card payments, 2.7% + 5¢ for in-person card payments, and 0.8% for ACH bank payments, capped at $5. Processing settles in your own Stripe account, separate from your Donatefy platform fee. Stripe can change its rates, so [stripe.com/pricing](https://stripe.com/pricing) has the current list.

**How do we get nonprofit pricing from Stripe?**

Stripe offers discounted processing fees for eligible nonprofit organizations that primarily accept donations, and sets the rate when it approves you. Stripe asks for registered nonprofit status with valid tax documents, an eligible country such as the US, and at least 80% of your Stripe volume from tax-deductible donations. Sign in to your own Stripe account and contact Stripe support with the subject "Non Profit pricing"; Stripe decides eligibility and confirms the rate. See [how to apply, from Stripe](https://support.stripe.com/questions/fee-discount-for-nonprofit-organizations).

**Who pays the processing fee, the donor or the organization?**

Your organization does by default: processing comes out of each payment in your Stripe account. With fee coverage on, donors can choose to add the processing and platform fees to their gift at checkout so your organization keeps 100% of the gift, and 72% of donors on Donatefy choose to cover it (Donatefy platform data). Coverage is always optional, shown with its exact amount before the donor pays, and recorded on the gift in your ledger.

**What counts as a device?**

Kiosks and Stripe Reader S700/S710 handhelds share one allowance: none on Free, 1 on Starter, up to 5 on Growth, unlimited on Enterprise. Extra slots are $15/mo each. Phones running the Mobile App never count against the device allowance.

**How does annual billing work?**

Annual plans cost ten monthly payments, so two months are free. You choose annual at an explicit confirmation step; we never silently convert a monthly plan or a trial into an annual charge.

**What happens if we downgrade or cancel?**

Nothing is deleted. Extra seats deactivate with their history intact, devices show a paused screen and reactivate instantly, and donor records, receipts, and the Donor Portal are untouched. Re-upgrading restores everything immediately.

**What if a payment fails during giving season?**

You keep full access while payments retry, and we never freeze features between November 1 and December 31. A card hiccup will not take your giving program down in your most important weeks.

**Can a small organization afford this?**

Free is a complete online giving product, not a teaser: real campaigns, recurring giving, receipts, and your own Stripe account. When you hit a limit, a 30-day Growth trial with no card required lets you test everything before paying, once per organization.

**How does the Enterprise fee floor work?**

Enterprise fees are negotiated between 0.25% and 0.5%. The 0.25% floor applies with at least $2M in annual processed volume or a two-year annual prepay, and we never go below it for anyone.
