Donation software for nonprofits
Branded donation forms on the website you already have, with campaign pages, recurring giving, peer-to-peer, and event ticketing in one place. Your CRM stays in sync, and your donors see a checkout that feels like you.
Why Donately
Why do nonprofits choose Donately?
Donately is fundraising software for nonprofits, churches, and schools that embeds donation forms and campaign pages into the website an organization already has. Every plan includes every feature, so a volunteer-run group and a national office get the same tools, with platform fees as low as 0%.
Give donors the checkout they expect
Donately forms are built to be finished, on any device, in as few steps as possible.
Donors can cover the processing cost so more of each gift reaches you, and every form and page works on any screen. Compatible with credit card, ACH, PayPal, Apple Pay, and Google Pay.
Know what is working, campaign by campaign
Total raised, average gift, donations over time, and which campaigns are carrying the month, all on one screen. Set the timeframe and every number follows it.
Break the same data down by campaign, gift size, or device. Filter it, save views, and export when your board asks.
Everything a nonprofit needs to raise money online
One account covers every way your supporters want to give.
Donation forms on your own site
Build a form with your colors, your fields, and your words, then embed it on your website or share it as a hosted page. Donors never leave your site to give.

Campaign pages
Give each appeal its own page with a story, a goal, and a progress bar. Launch one for Giving Tuesday, year-end, or a capital push in an afternoon.
Campaign pages →
Recurring giving
Let donors give weekly, monthly, or yearly from any form. They can update a card or change a gift themselves from their own donor dashboard.
Recurring donations →Every other way your supporters give
No add-ons and no feature limits. Every plan gets every feature.
Supporters build their own fundraising pages under your campaign, alone or as teams, for walks, rides, birthdays, and chapter drives.
Sell tickets, sponsorships, and items on the same form as a gift. A ticket and a donation can share one checkout and stay separate in your records.
Supporters text a keyword and give from their phone in seconds.
Donors can give in honor or memory of someone and send an eCard that tells them.

Frequently asked questions
What is the best donation software for nonprofits?
The best fit depends on how you raise money. If you want branded forms on your own website, recurring giving, peer-to-peer, and event tickets in one place, with low fees and your CRM kept in sync, Donately is built for that. Compare the total cost, not just the platform fee: processing fees and what donors are asked to cover add up. See our comparison pages if you are exploring your options.
How do nonprofits choose a trusted donation form tool?
We like to tell organzations to focus on four things:
1. Where the form lives, on your site or a third-party page
2. The total cost per gift including processing
3. Which payment methods donors can use
4. Whether it syncs with the CRM you already have.
Donately covers all four and we provide comparison pages for more details.
How much does donation software cost?
Costs come from three places: a platform fee, card processing, and any subscription. Donately has no setup fees and no feature limits. See pricing for current rates, and Total Donor Cost to compare platforms on what the nonprofit pays and what the donor pays.
Can we accept donations on our own website?
Yes. Embed a Donately form on WordPress, Squarespace, Wix, Webflow, or any site that accepts an embed code. You can use a hosted page if you do not have a website.
Does Donately replace our donor CRM?
How fast can we start taking donations?
Most organizations are live within a day: sign up, connect Stripe or PayPal, and publish a form.
Can donors give monthly?
Yes. Any form can offer weekly, monthly, or yearly giving, and donors manage their own recurring gifts from their donor dashboard.
