This month, we’re celebrating two of our most significant milestones to date: We estimate that we have saved the nonprofit community at least $100 million in tech expenses on $1 billion raised since our start in 2015.
This calculation is based on the real prices advertised by other fundraising platforms. We've analyzed the costs that would have been charged to our member nonprofits if they had chosen to raise the same $1 billion on fee-based platforms. We think $100 million is a conservative estimate. Read our announcement about this accomplishment.

Question management and answer reporting have also been completely overhauled. Learn how to ask custom questions on donation payment forms.
