The Power of Fee-Free: Why It’s Time to Rethink the Cost of Giving

The days of fees and charges on donations are over. Introducing Charitabl.Pro.

Let’s be honest: fundraising isn’t free.

By the time you’ve paid for website hosting, payment processing, bank fees, merchant surcharges, not to mention the hours it takes to track, receipt, and reconcile donations, that $100 donation is often worth far less than it should be.

I’m a firm believer that generosity should be barrier-free. That’s why we built the first platform in Australia that’s not only barrier free —but truly fee free.

That’s right. Zero commissions. Zero processing fees.

Every cent goes to you.

In fact, our research suggests that giving through Charitabl. can increase the impact of every dollar raised by up to 17.5%—when you factor in the combined savings on admin, labour, receipting, middlemen fees and transaction costs.

So how do we do it?

The fees are paid for by a generous donor who covers 100% of the fees—bank charges, processing costs, the lot— their desire is to have a sector wide impact on generosity which we think is pretty cool.

How do charities get the most out of it?

Our core product is what we call Charitabl.Pro and we built it to represent a true digital transformation for your organisation and offer a whole host of services all aimed at increasing the impact of every dollar raised.

We have three clear pricing models:

Basic (all registered charities) – FREE*
Kickstarter (registered charities under $1m) - $999 per year.
Standard (registered charities over $1m) - $4,999 per year.

* on the basic package you are able to use the Charitabl. platform (app only) to take fee free donations but you do not have access to any of the additional features mentioned below.
