"Fast and Transparent Online Donations with Reliable Stripe and PayPal Integration"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Donorbox?

What I like most about Donorbox is how easy it is to set up and start accepting donations quickly, without any technical overhead. The platform is very transparent about its fees, integrates smoothly with Stripe and PayPal, and works reliably with WordPress websites. I also appreciate the flexibility it offers for both one-time and recurring donations, along with the clean, professional-looking donation forms that help build trust with donors.

What do you dislike about Donorbox?

One downside is that some advanced features and customization options are limited on the free plan, which can require upgrading sooner than expected as an organization grows. In addition, deeper reporting and analytics could be more flexible for users who want more detailed donor insights without exporting data externally. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Sindi Cele of Donorbox

Thank you for such a detailed and thoughtful review! We're glad to hear that you’ve found Donorbox easy to set up and reliable, and that the integrations with Stripe, PayPal, and WordPress have worked smoothly for you. It’s also great to know that the transparency around fees, flexible donation options, and clean, professional form design are helping you build trust with your donors.

We also appreciate your feedback on advanced features and reporting. We understand that as organizations grow, the need for more customization and deeper analytics becomes increasingly important. Your input about expanding flexibility is valuable, and we’ll be sure to share it with our product team as we continue improving the platform.

"Easy to use, and the free basic option is a huge help, esp for smaller non profits!"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Donorbox?

The team at Donorbox has been very responsive to handling challenges that have come up, most related to a paid add on of an integration with planning center. We've had some issues with donations syncing correctly across platforms, but the team has been quick to respond and work to resolve the issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Donorbox?

There are still some issues with donation notifications - we've specifically selected certain members of our team to be notified, but they still don't get all the emails. Not a deal breaker however. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Sindi Cele of Donorbox

Hi Mandi,

Thank you for your feedback! We’re glad to hear that our team has been responsive and helpful in working through the integration challenges with Planning Center, and that you’ve felt supported while getting things resolved.

Regarding the donation notifications issue, we haven’t noted a similar problem on our end, and we’d really like to look into this further for you. Could you please contact us at support@donorbox.org with the relevant details? Our team will be happy to investigate and help resolve it.

Thanks again for taking the time to share your experience—we appreciate it!

It is incredibly easy to set up for a small nonprofit. The platform is intuitive, looks professional, and helped our remote rescue in Belize secure our very first donation quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Donorbox?

As a brand new nonprofit operating on a tight budget, any transaction fees are a challenge, but they are very clear and transparent about their pricing upfront. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Simple and Effective Solution for Associations"

I appreciate Donorbox because it's easy to use and there are free options. I also like the ability to create specialized and customized pages, and being able to link with Stripe, it works well. The initial setup took me about an hour, it wasn't too complex, and once set up, it works very well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Donorbox?

At times, it can feel a bit convoluted and overly complex. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"User-Friendly and Free—Perfect for Nonprofits"
5/5
What do you like best about Donorbox?

I love how user-friendly it is, and the fact that it’s free for nonprofits is a huge reason we use it, too. I also appreciate how Donorbox accepts a variety of payments, giving supporters more options and making it easier for them! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Donorbox?

Nothing, we love it all! We love that we can build multiple campaigns and when we update anything, it automatically is reflected in the platform that shows it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Sindi Cele of Donorbox

"Effortless Donor Management for Nonprofits"
5/5
What do you like best about Donorbox?

I use Donorbox for my nonprofit to make it really easy for people to donate with just one click on my website or newsletter. I like that I'm able to send thank yous and receipts very easily. This feature adds value for me because I'm not the most organized person, and I don't really have to keep track of donations. The initial setup was super easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Donorbox?

I do find it hard to find the thank you that is sent out when people make a donation so I can see exactly what it says. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Marc Harmon of Donorbox

Thank you for the positive feedback! We're happy to hear that Donorbox is helping you keep track of donations and automate the thank you email process.

"Easy drag-and-drop setup with strong free features and donation-based pricing"
5/5
What do you like best about Donorbox?

It is easy to set up with the drag and drop interface and the free version has good functionality. That way, we are only paying for the platform as a % of an actual donation, instead of having a recurring subscription expense. As a fledgling NPO that is entirely vounteer run, this is important for us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Donorbox?

The event ticket sales feature doesn't work as well for us. The capture of the ticket buyer vs.. ticket user, and the transfer of that data via the Salesforce integration doesn't work seamlessly. There need to be more options for mapping fields between donorbox and Salesforce. As a consequence, I have to fix records manually on Salesforce side. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A Comprehensive and User-Friendly Fundraising Platform with Room for Enhancement"
4/5
What do you like best about Donorbox?

I appreciate the user-friendly interface that simplifies the donation process for both organizations and donors. Creating a donation form is straightforward and doesn't require much technical expertise. This easy-to-use platform enables organizations to concentrate on their mission instead of dealing with technical details. Additionally, Donorbox prioritizes security and compliance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Donorbox?

Although Donorbox offers good customization for donation forms, more advanced design options could be beneficial. For instance, allowing greater flexibility in form layouts, custom CSS, and more template choices could help organizations better match their branding and create more visually appealing donation pages. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Sindi Cele of Donorbox

Hi Phindiwe,

Thank you so much for your feedback. We're glad that you found our platform user-friendly.

We also really appreciate you bringing the issue with additional advanced design choices to our attention. We are always actively working to ensure our platform is progressive.

We do offer custom CSS, and we’d love to hear more about the specific layout and template options you'd love to see, so if it’s no trouble at all, please feel free to share more details with us at support@donorbox.org.

Your input helps us improve, and we can’t wait to hear from you!

"Easy Standalone Donation Forms, But Overall Fees Add Up"
3/5
What do you like best about Donorbox?

It was easy to create a stand-alone donation form which I sent to a friend. He was hesitant to use another payment provider due to recent scams and phishes, so our charity decided to offer a secondary payment platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Donorbox?

The fees altogether were high. We pay a percentage of each transaction to our alternate payment provider and then another bit on tip of that for Donorbox. Taken as a whole, the percentages are rather high. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
