Is GiveGrove free for nonprofits?

GiveGrove offers a model where the platform costs are covered by optional donor tips, allowing the nonprofit to use the software for $0 out-of-pocket. In fact, with the GiveBack Guarantee™, GiveGrove actually shares a portion of its tips with you. When your donors are generous, so is GiveGrove.

What is the GiveBack Guarantee™?

The GiveBack Guarantee™ is our unique promise that makes us the only fundraising platform that pays you. We share a portion of donor tips directly with the nonprofit, turning your fundraising tool into a revenue generator.
