Nonprofits
Technology that works as hard as you do — from small community orgs to large national nonprofits.
Most donation platforms were built for e-commerce companies and bolted on to nonprofits as an afterthought. We built Custom Donations from the ground up for mission-driven organizations.
That means every feature — from directed giving to risk-free pricing to personalized ask amounts — was designed specifically to serve the way nonprofits raise money.
of donors choose to cover all transaction fees
Our donor-covers-fee prompting is proven to increase participation rates significantly above industry average. Your organization keeps more of every dollar raised.
A full fundraising suite — one platform
Everything from form creation to donor receipts to analytics in a single, unified system.
Unlimited Forms
Create a dedicated form for every campaign, event, program, or fund. Annual appeal, emergency relief drive, gala table sales — each gets its own branded form with its own settings.
Multiple Payment Methods
Accept credit/debit, ACH bank transfers, Apple Pay, and Google Pay. Donors choose what's easiest, which means fewer abandoned sessions and more completed gifts.
Recurring Giving
Build a reliable monthly giving program. Donors choose their amount and frequency; renewals happen automatically. Monthly sustainers are typically worth 3–4× a one-time donor.
Directed & Restricted Giving
Let donors designate their gift to specific programs, locations, or projects — with unlimited designation options per form. Increases donor satisfaction and gift completion rates.
Risk-Free Pricing
Our unique Risk-Free plan prompts donors to cover processing fees. If they decline, Custom Donations absorbs the platform fee — you always receive the full gift amount.
Fraud Protection
AI-powered fraud detection flags suspicious transactions before they hit your account. Bank-level encryption protects donor card data at every step.
Personalized Data & Insights
Real-time dashboards track gift volume, average gift size, recurring vs. one-time splits, and fund-level performance. Export to Excel or connect to your CRM.
Easy Embed
Paste a single code snippet into any CMS — WordPress, Webflow, Squarespace, Wix, or custom HTML. Your form is live in minutes without touching your main site's code.
Frictionless Checkout
Fewer fields, smarter defaults, and saved payment methods mean donors complete their gift in under 60 seconds. Every second of friction costs you completions.
Donor Experience
Branded thank-you screens, instant receipt emails, and a giving journey that feels premium — not like a generic payment processor — builds trust and loyalty over time.
Data Enrichment
Our BlueRidge Data partnership can augment your donor records with wealth screening, updated contact info, and giving-propensity scores to sharpen your major gift pipeline.
Matching Gifts
Maximize every dollar with built-in matching gift tools. Surface employer match opportunities at checkout and automate submission through Match2Give and Matching Gift Manager integrations.
