Fundraise Up

What Fundraise Up is

Fundraise Up is a donation platform for nonprofits that combines personalized checkout with tools for managing campaigns and donor activity. Its checkout can adjust suggested donation amounts, recurring-gift prompts, and payment options for each donor, and it supports ongoing A/B testing. Campaign tools include campaign pages, peer-to-peer fundraising, a gift cart, donor portal, insights dashboard, and virtual terminal. For international giving, checkout supports more than 20 payment options, over 135 currencies, and 23 languages. The platform also provides donation forms, recurring donations, event fundraising, and advanced campaign reporting. A two-way REST API can process one-time and recurring donations from offline channels and sync donation data with CRMs and business intelligence tools. Fundraise Up says it connects with more than 100 apps, with native integrations including Salesforce, HubSpot, Bonterra EveryAction, and DonorPerfect. Listed security standards include PCI DSS Level 1 4.0.1, SOC 2 Type II, and ISO 27001; its compliance areas include GDPR, PIPEDA, and WCAG 2.2 AA. Founded in 2017, the company is headquartered in Brooklyn, New York, and says it serves more than 3,500 nonprofits. It offers onboarding, migration support, ongoing guidance, dedicated Customer Success, and expert support without onboarding fees or hourly assistance charges.

Who it suits

Fundraise Up suits nonprofits seeking personalized online donation checkout alongside campaign pages, peer-to-peer and event fundraising, donor tools, and reporting. Its international payment and language support, CRM connections, and offline-channel API may fit organizations managing gifts across multiple channels.

Limits

The performance-based plan has no subscriptions or platform fees, includes all features, and charges separate payment processing fees. The full-platform plan is billed through a performance-based fee on donations processed, with no setup fees, annual subscription cost, or long-term contracts; its effective cost averages about 1% after donor fee coverage, varies by organization, and excludes payment processing.

Verdict

Choose Fundraise Up if your nonprofit wants personalized giving checkout with campaign, donor, and reporting tools in one platform. Its pricing is provided on request, and payment processing fees are separate, so organizations should account for both when evaluating the service.
