Eventgroove Fundraising is a web platform for nonprofits and organizations running online, in-person, or hybrid fundraising campaigns. It supports raffles, auctions, crowdfunding, sales, A-thons, and sweepstakes, with peer-to-peer fundraising pages that participants can customize. Organizers can promote campaigns using text-to-give, social sharing, email integration, and QR codes. For hybrid events, they can livestream an in-person event so remote supporters can bid or donate by text. Donation pages, including recurring-gift pages, have no service fee, though Stripe processing fees apply. Payments are processed through the nonprofit’s Stripe account, and funds are deposited within a few days of a transaction. Pages are optimized for mobile donors, and the platform accepts donations in 36+ currencies from donors in over 135 locations. Integrations connect it to Eventgroove Events for registration and membership data and Eventgroove Products for printed fundraiser materials and merchandise. The free Tip Pricing plan permits optional donor tips; without a tip, there is no service fee. Auction items have a 4.9% fee capped at $100, and Stripe processing fees apply.
