"Make Fundraising Easier!"
What do you like best about Givebutter?

I am still enjoying the platform. It's very user friendly and they are always reaching out with new ideas to help you fundraise. I especially appreciate the reports you can run to see all your donors in one place. Being able to export the list allows you to sort by amount or other criteria. It's very helpful.

What do you dislike about Givebutter?

I wish some of the features weren't subscription only, but I understand they have to make money somewhere. The free features work well for our small nonprofit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Alyssa D of Givebutter

Thanks for your thoughtful and thorough review! We're so glad to hear that you've been enjoying using our platform, and have found our support and Office Hours resources helpful! If you're referring to importing existing customer information, we'd recommend doing this via import (we have a handy template available), and if you're referring to getting Engage set up so you can send out emails to your contacts, we have several Help Center guides that should cover your email platform. Connecting your domain can be a tricky process, so feel free to reach out to our team if you're having any trouble – we'd be happy to help! Keep making the world a butter place. ✨

"Intuitive Interface, But Tax Issues Make It SO EXPENSIVE!!"
What do you like best about Givebutter?

I like the interface in Givebutter. It's just easier to use, and it's a better experience for the donors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Givebutter?

It doesn't collect sales tax on auctions, which means we are liable to pay for the taxes out of pocket. This makes the product ~10% more expensive than any competitor!!! We almost missed this and could have been audited by the IRS. The product is riddled with dark UX patterns. The product claims to have user opt in for tips, but many users report not noticing that they're paying them. When our nonprofit went to withdraw funds from the product, we were deceived into giving GB a 3% tip! Thankfully, they offered to refund this tip, but I imagine that many people don't notice or miss the window request a refund. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Shiella D of Givebutter

Hi there! Thanks so much for sharing your feedback. We understand how tips and fees can sometimes be confusing. Just to clarify, donors are never required to give a tip. Our platform is completely flexible, and organizations can disable tipping if they prefer. If a tip is accidentally added, we’re always happy to refund it.

We also have a guarantee to cover processing fees if tips are enabled and donors choose not to pay them, so you can be sure the organization’s donation stays 100% theirs. We know tipping isn’t for everyone, so the option to disable it is always available.

We hear you about sales tax as well. This is something our team is continually working to improve, and we really appreciate your patience while we make updates.

Thanks again for sharing your experience. Your feedback helps us make things even clearer for everyone!
