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.

Nonprofit Event Ticketing That Works the Way You Do

Ticketing

GiveGrove’s built-in ticketing system makes it easy to create, sell, and manage event tickets—without the need for spreadsheets, clunky check-in apps, or extra software.

Built for fundraising events —not just entry

Unlike other ticketing platforms that focus on getting people in the door, GiveGrove is designed with fundraising in mind. That means your ticket sales, donations, auctions, and peer-to-peer campaigns all live in one place—with real-time reporting and donor-friendly checkout.
