## GivingFuel Reviews
  ### 1. Excellent site for nonprofit donation set up

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Janice B. | Tax Preparer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 20, 2022

**What do you like best about GivingFuel?**

Decide is very user-friendly and when I had problems and went to the chat, I like that someone came on to help me right away. I also like the fact that they sent webinars to help with different things.

**What do you dislike about GivingFuel?**

So far, I haven't seen anything that I dislike.

**What problems is GivingFuel solving and how is that benefiting you?**

As I said earlier I do like the fact that they send you the videos to help you get an idea of how to start getting funding and starting fundraisers.

  ### 2. Great, timely customer service

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Ashley  E. | Field worker, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 27, 2022

**What do you like best about GivingFuel?**

Aaron went above and beyond to get my issue resolved. He was quick to respond to my request and very personable.

**What do you dislike about GivingFuel?**

Not applicable, no complaints. A chat may be nice but with how fast they respond not necessary

**What problems is GivingFuel solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Helps to manage all my funds tracking and contacts so I do not have to.

  ### 3. Excellent Customer Service

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Non-Profit Organization Management | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 04, 2022

**What do you like best about GivingFuel?**

Giving Fuel is easy to use and easy to set up.  When I have needed help, their customer service has been great.  I've worked the most with Caitlynn.  Our setup is a bit unique due to how we are organized, so my questions were not the normal ones. Caitlynn is clearly experienced in the product.  She understood my questions and what was behind them, and she was able to help me find solutions to all of them.  There were 2 times she needed to reach out to her team to do a deeper dive, and I had answers within 30-60 minutes which was fast.  We are very grateful for all of the help!

**What do you dislike about GivingFuel?**

It took me a bit to understand what options I had to put onto a page (like a line item) and how to best utilize actions to get the behaviors on the page that I needed.  Once again Caitlynn was a huge help in this process.

**What problems is GivingFuel solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We have a more intuitive giving page that is modern, customizable, and easy to use.  Even in the setup we are realizing how much more potential we have with Giving Fuel than in our previous option.  We also like the ability to create several pages for different types on donor experiences.

Some of the export features are still a little inconsistent so it took longer than expected to figure them out. but we now have a workable system to share GF info with our internal systems.

**What problems is GivingFuel solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It gives us the ability to have consistent giving to both our home office and local congregations.

**Reviewed Date:** September 08, 2022

I can't say that there is anything that I personally dislike!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Pamela J. | President, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 27, 2022

Giving Fuel is consumer friendly  (even for the newest of all non-profits) and easy to navigate through from building your pages to managing your donations.  When comparing software choices, we knew GF was the best one for us!

**What do you dislike about GivingFuel?**

Our wish list is for Giving Fuel to offer a comprehensive CRM that offers stewardship options that can be managed on the back end.  We did ask for Text to Give so we didn't have to use multiple platforms and it is now available!

**What problems is GivingFuel solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It offers an easy platform for our donors to complete their donations quickly.  The year-end statements are great and make our year-end communication simple and impactful!

Giving Fuel provides amazing personal customer service every time we need help. They are fast and dependable to solve any issues needed. Wonderful to work with.

They do not have a dedicated customer service phone number that you can call in an emergency. It would be helpful to have a customer service number to call.

They provide a wonderful platform for our organization to receive funds.

GivingFuel is very flexible to make an online donation form. Especially, the capability of connecting the forms with the multiple payment gateways is the most appreciated feature.

User management. I wish I could assign more admins with separate access previlages.

Easy to use. You can collect donations with various ways; one time donation, recurring, text-to-give.

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Non-Profit Organization Management | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 30, 2022

Aaron has helped me numerous times to resolve discrepancies in Webcomnec data versus bank deposits.

**What do you dislike about GivingFuel?**

That I can't work through the discrepancies myself.

**What problems is GivingFuel solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Most recently a bank transaction that was short $9.40 that ended up being a credit issued from the previous month for a MC brand fee duplication.

  ### 15. Great Customer Service & Easy to Navigate

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Civic & Social Organization | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 16, 2022

**What do you like best about GivingFuel?**

I have found it challenging to find billing information, but was quickly sent a link by a team member to locate it.

There's not much that I dislike about this platform.

  ### 21. HBHA for GF

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Primary/Secondary Education | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 11, 2022

**What do you like best about GivingFuel?**

The price is great for the product. The ability to carry over campaigns is useful and the customer service is top-notch, even when they can't actually fix the issue.

**What do you dislike about GivingFuel?**

Design page functionality is lacking. Sometimes Pantone colors don't work properly.

**Recommendations to others considering GivingFuel:**

the terms of service and helpfulness of staff make it worth trying.

**What problems is GivingFuel solving and how is that benefiting you?**

monthly givers are easily maintained

  ### 22. Easy to setup  and making a big different for our donors

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Juzz F. | Digital Product manager, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 25, 2022

**What do you like best about GivingFuel?**

easy to use and setup pages for donations

**What do you dislike about GivingFuel?**

be good to have more options of payment providers

**What problems is GivingFuel solving and how is that benefiting you?**

donations, followups , updating credit card and other details

  ### 23. Giving Fuel is the best for our international non profit

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jim W. | Director, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 27, 2021

**What do you like best about GivingFuel?**

Customer service is spectacular.  They really know their product, and have offered out of the box suggestions.

The product works great for us.  One feature I like is being able to receive and enter in off line donations.  Our larger donations come in the form of checks.  So it is good to meld them with CC donations.

Giving Fuel has saved me time, and increased efficiency.

I would be happy to discuss how we use GF with you if you are interested.

I am surprised that this evaluation only generated an A-.  I truly feel like GF is an A+ product for our situation.

**What do you dislike about GivingFuel?**

So far I have not found a thing that I dislike.  They might not be the cheapest product on the market.  But what they offer is worth way more than saving a few bucks.



There is the saying Quality, Service, Price, you can only have 2 out of 3.  I love Giving Fuels Quality and Service, and their price really is not that high.

**Recommendations to others considering GivingFuel:**

If you are a non profit or church that needs help getting things under control, Giving Fuel is a great option.  They work very hard to make sure that we are successful and happy.

**What problems is GivingFuel solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The problem I am solving with Giving Fuel is we are more effective in serving exploited and trafficked girls.  They are as much of a partner to our organization as our donors.

  ### 24. Online Giving Made Easy

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Bret M. | IT Manager, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 19, 2021

**What do you like best about GivingFuel?**

I like how easy it was to create custom giving forms and incorporate them into a website. There wasn't a lot of paperwork. Credit card fees are reasonable. Text-to-give with a custom local phone number is included in paid plans. I love how it works too--just text an amount to the number. After the initial setup, it's one step to give.

**What do you dislike about GivingFuel?**

There were some struggles with text-to-give when mobile providers started routinely blocking business text. It took some time to work that out, but it's working well now. It would also be better to be able to edit the credit card set up for text-to-give without having to re-enter all the information again. And if you have a lot of giving pages, making a change like changing your gateway requires editing every page individually with no easy way to verify all the pages are set to the correct gateway.

**What problems is GivingFuel solving and how is that benefiting you?**

GivingFuel allowed us to integrate directly with our donor management system. This means that donations given online are automatically recorded for the most part reducing the time required for processing donations.  It also provided an easy way (text-to-give) for members to give during worship without being distracted by filling out forms or checks.

  ### 25. Rapid, powerful, flexible fundraiser site design, stellar support, fantastic fee structure!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Shannon C. | Owner, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 29, 2021

**What do you like best about GivingFuel?**

Site building on GivingFuel (and all of Webconnex's product line) is easy and full-featured, and the secure pages are responsive (multi-platform) and embeddable in other sites.  Drag and drop interface is intuitive, and configuration options are clear. I absolutely love the conditional-logic-based actions that allow me to show or hide things, waive fees, etc. Their support knowledgebase is pretty comprehensive, as well.  When I have had questions, I have used the support chat, and the responses were fast and usually spot-on without a lot of back-and-forth discussion.  The support engineers are passionate about what they do, and happily throw together example pages to showcase features that might be helpful.  I love not having to guess what the fees are, as the fees are tied to the donations received.  And it is easy to pass the processing fees on to the donor, so the fees don't chip away at the donations.

**What do you dislike about GivingFuel?**

I prefer a grid layout for merchandise, but that option isn't available.  I would have also liked to animate selections, but that's definitely fluff, not a dealbreaker.

**What problems is GivingFuel solving and how is that benefiting you?**

My client wanted to launch a virtual version of an "Envelope Challenge" (also known as a "Wall of Money").  Another vendor had what looked like a pretty comprehensive and easy solution, but they restrict the timeframe of the campaign to two weeks, which was not enough for her.  Thanks to GivingFuel, I was able to quickly put together the site she needed, and we launched it three days before her desired date, when she thought that it would take another week or two after that date, based on the other vendor's timeline.  She is thrilled!

  ### 26. Promising but Painful

**Rating:** 2.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Robert P. | Database Manager / Salesforce Administrator, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 20, 2021

**What do you like best about GivingFuel?**

I love the creative flexibility of being able to create the campaign/donation page and add multiple different elements to it.

**What do you dislike about GivingFuel?**

What I dislike the most about GivingFuel is their poorly built API for mapping the data to our CRM, which in this case, is Salesforce. For years I have had to endure multiple issues--from incorrect timestamps to records not being triggered, created, or synced into Salesforce at all. Even after having reported these issues years ago, and they acknowledging that the issues exist with promises to address them, the glaring issues remain unresolved. To put it simply, their Salesforce integration is one of the worst I've seen or experienced.

**What problems is GivingFuel solving and how is that benefiting you?**

GivingFuel is useful for managing our fundraising campaigns and providing an online portal for constituents/donors to give. As a standalone in this respect, they have been great.

  ### 27. Easy website integration

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Gentry A. | Program Manager, Single Family Residential Rehabilitation Program (SFRRP), Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 21, 2021

**What do you like best about GivingFuel?**

GivingFuel was easy to integrate into our website and was user-friendly for our donors. It looked seamless as a part of our site. Setup was also pretty straightforward.

**What do you dislike about GivingFuel?**

The fees were a little high. We ended up switching to a platform specifically designed for churches (Tithely), but GivingFuel worked well while we used it.

**Recommendations to others considering GivingFuel:**

GivingFuel was an easy platform to use for our website donations.

**What problems is GivingFuel solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We used GivingFuel to accept donations on our website. The platform was easy for our donors to use.

  ### 28. So easy to use and Amazing Support

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Non-Profit Organization Management | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 13, 2021

**What do you like best about GivingFuel?**

Giving Fuel is so easy to use! Creating new campaign pages for all of our fundraising opportunities is easy to do, even if you know nothing about web design. We love the customizable look and options for recurring donations, crowdfund thermometer widgets, and the easy integration with employer matching. We also have always received outstanding quick and helpful support from their solutions team.

**What do you dislike about GivingFuel?**

We had one glitch with a payment gateway, but the Giving Fuel team quickly offered us a solution and instructions for getting it resolved. Otherwise, we do not have anything that we dislike.

**What problems is GivingFuel solving and how is that benefiting you?**

By using Giving Fuel, we feel confident in sending potential donors to our giving page. We know they will have an easy-to-use platform with our branded look, which will help them to finalize their investment in our work. We also greatly benefit from the simplicity of reports and confidence in gathering data to integrate into our CRM. We don't have to double check data anymore.

  ### 29. Best customer service!

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Bethany K. | Assistant Director of Development, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 21, 2021

**What do you like best about GivingFuel?**

So many things! It's easy to use, cost-effective, and customizable. However, above all, they have the best customer service. Every single question is answered in such a timely and helpful manner. They're responsive and go above and beyond in matching their software to your needs.

**What do you dislike about GivingFuel?**

While it is super customizable, there are elements of the pages that look a little "homemade." However, the pros do outweigh the cons.

**What problems is GivingFuel solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We saved so much money by using GivingFuel instead of a much more expensive software.

  ### 30. Easy to use!

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Loni L. | Web Developer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 01, 2021

**What do you like best about GivingFuel?**

Easy to build pages, forms and reports. Even our staff that is a little nervous about running reports has no problems running reports from this platform!

**What do you dislike about GivingFuel?**

I wish that the info went directly into our CRM database.

**What problems is GivingFuel solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Our last platform didnt let us have forms without payment so Giving Fuel solved that problem! I can make almost any form that I need now.

  ### 31. Great Nonprofit Giving Product with A Bunch of Extras

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Matthew S. | Executive Directpr, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 19, 2021

**What do you like best about GivingFuel?**

I love how customizable Giving Fuel is. I love its integrations through Zapier. I love the ease of use for donors when they go to set up a gift.

**What do you dislike about GivingFuel?**

ECheck giving is not a native part of this product so we had to use a separate processor to allow for electronic checks.

**What problems is GivingFuel solving and how is that benefiting you?**

My office administrator, salesforce administrator, board members, and donors all find Giving Fuel easy to use.

  ### 32. MHIC Nonprofit giving

**Reviewed by:** gwendolyn t. | Executive Director, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 07, 2021

**What do you dislike about GivingFuel?**

I have nothing to report on dislikes for this question.

**Recommendations to others considering GivingFuel:**

Try Giving Fuel first!

**What problems is GivingFuel solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are providing a strong service that offers several ways to give, pay service fees (smaller than our former providers)  and offer several easily accessible tools to expand as we expand.

  ### 33. Youth non-profit using Giving Fuel

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Non-Profit Organization Management | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 20, 2021

**What do you like best about GivingFuel?**

I like the accessibility and ease of use with other webconnex products.
I also greatly appreciate the genuine customer service which goes above and beyond everytime.
Our donors never have any issues setting up their giving, which is lovely to know that it is as easy to use for donors as it is for us.

**What do you dislike about GivingFuel?**

A few more reporting features  might be be helpful for CRM. We are hoping to use this program long-term and any CRM tools will help us stick with giving fuel.

**What problems is GivingFuel solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are increasing our monthly donors & Givingfuel is helping us.

**What do you like best about GivingFuel?**

Being able to add text fields as well as payment fields to collect data and being able to embed the form on a webpage

**What do you dislike about GivingFuel?**

The reporting, the need to create custom reports to get the data out, being able to add credit card fee, to be able to have it as a separate item in the export it needs to be set up in actions.

**What problems is GivingFuel solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It keeps the fundraising portion of our organization separate from the event registrations.

They didn't have live chat available, but then again, my issue needed research and also help from my end from another team member. All that to say, Live Chat probably wouldn't have worked.

Easy donation processing with accurate tracking and integration.

  ### 43. All Around Good Experience

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Amy M. | Development Manager - Annual Giving, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 11, 2020

**What do you like best about GivingFuel?**

We have had a very positive experience with Giving Fuel up until recently. Their forms are easy to create and giving is always easy to follow along with. They offer a very simplistic approach to looking at your giving. Somebody who is fresh-faced can step into this tool and easily pick up on how everything works and how each report can be used. We've had zero issues with giving fuels forms.

**What do you dislike about GivingFuel?**

Recently, Giving Fuel changed how their system works. They're now requiring an e-mail for all donors, which normally would be fine except for our monthly donors who gave years ago and have no valid e-mail. E-mails were created for them and they became a lumped group in our system instead of individuals. We also had some issues recently with Giving Fuel connecting with our internal payout system. Some gifts from Giving fuel never come over or go missing, along with some issues of fraud, even though we've taken all precautions on our forms to avoid this.

**Recommendations to others considering GivingFuel:**

With it's easy to use features, I don't know why you wouldn't give it a try. Your CRM may even integrate with it, making it all that much easier on you to use

**What problems is GivingFuel solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The problems we were able to solve with Giving Fuel was how we view our giving forms and donations. Their systems are easy to understand and format. It's an easy to understand tool for anybody in your company or nonprofit to use.

  ### 44. Easy to use online giving platform

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Gina P. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 22, 2020

**What do you like best about GivingFuel?**

Easy forms setup, credit card expiration alerts and good reporting

**What do you dislike about GivingFuel?**

It's difficult to change credit card info after it expires.

**Recommendations to others considering GivingFuel:**

GivingFuel is a solid and robust online giving platform. Forms are easy to create and manage, and are easy to integrate to our website. I would like to have online giving that would host directly on our site rather than re-directing to the vendor site, however the other benefits outweigh this for us at present.

**What problems is GivingFuel solving and how is that benefiting you?**

GivingFuel gives us an easy to use experience for us and for our donors.

  ### 45. Incredible Value for Online Donations

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Kelly W. | Membership Manager, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 18, 2019

**What do you like best about GivingFuel?**

Giving Fuel does one thing really well: online donations. The forms are easy to setup and customizable. Monthly recurring gifts are processed automatically every day. Confirmation and decline emails are automatic. It's easy to export all of your data to import to a CRM, and they allow API connections. Customer service is good. It's really, really inexpensive.

**What do you dislike about GivingFuel?**

It's fairly basic. There are a few things that you can't customize, like when and how many times a declined recurring transaction is retried, or multi-column layouts on a donation page. It is not robust enough to be a CRM, but it does not pretend to be.

**Recommendations to others considering GivingFuel:**

I haven't found a better value for online donations. If you need to accept donations online and process monthly recurring gifts, Giving Fuel is easy, customizable and inexpensive.

**What problems is GivingFuel solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Giving Fuel is the front-end for our online donations. We also use it to process offline donations made via credit card or bank draft. It also automates the processing of all monthly recurring transactions. It was easy to setup and we've scaled up from 100 monthly donors to 8,000 without a problem.

  ### 46. Competitively priced with limited functionality

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Brent E. | President, Non-Profit Organization Management, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 22, 2019

**What do you like best about GivingFuel?**

I like GivingFuel's prices for an entry-level payment processor like my small non-profit. Their tools and customizations have been adequate for my donor's needs.

**What do you dislike about GivingFuel?**

I wish there was better integration with their other services (GroupRev especially), and better design options. 

**What problems is GivingFuel solving and how is that benefiting you?**

GivingFuel does a good job at giving your organization customizable donation pages, payment processing, and limited communication functionality. We have enjoyed using their product.
