Zeffy provides everything I had in a very expensive fundraising platform for two years, but it's FREE!!! The support is great during onboarding.
I am able to maintain a contact list, track donations, send emails, raise money, and create quick and easy newsletters, all at no cost to my non-profit.
My favorite feature is Communications, where I can navigate and design a newsletter much like I would use Canva, Word, or PowerPoint. I can drag and drop images, select text boxes for headers and text, and move elements with my cursor. It's actually easier than other formats I've tried.
I can also send an immediate thank-you letter with a tax receipt to any donor. Then, when I have time, I can send a personal message or follow-up note to repeat donors, large-sum donors, etc.
The software is so intuitive that I rarely need to go to the help page, but it's invaluable when I do.
This platform truly is the BEST! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I have trouble using a template, renaming it, and creating a new newsletter. A button or direct instructions in the software would be helpful to save me from having to go to the help page. (I only send a quarterly newsletter and forget how it's done). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Thank you Barbara! Zeffy is a one-stop fundraising and donor management platform with zero platform fees, and replacing a very expensive platform while keeping your contact list, tracking and onboarding support is exactly the swap it is built for.
On renaming a template and starting a new newsletter from it without visiting the help page, that is genuinely helpful feedback and a precise interface request. Our product team ships improvements weekly and all feedback we collect goes directly into building the roadmap, so it is worth sending support that description.
Two parts of Zeffy you may not have opened yet. Raffles support ticket bundles, prize tiers and 50/50 draws, which many organizations run beside a campaign they already have live and set up in an afternoon. Memberships handle tiers, automatic renewal and member cards, with renewal reminders sent for you, which gives an organization support arriving on a schedule rather than a fresh ask each time.
Glad Zeffy is working for you and your organization.
