Excellent customer support with a very quick response time. Very easy to use!!!
Ease of use. We are able to use Flipcause for all of our financial backend needs. Campaigns can be tailored to use peer to peer fundraising, event ticket sales, merchandise sales and volunteer management. The platform is also donor friendly and gives the donor the option to cover all fees so that more funds come to us. They will also design individual campaigns for us - this is HUGE for a small staff of two.
CONSLike with anything new the hardest part is simply learning the basics! I have found it hard to find tutorials on my own but their customer service staff is so quick to respond that it really is a non-issue.

Flipcause saves our nonprofit time and money!
Overall I can't thank Flipcause enough for all their support. As a grassroots organization without a team to manage our online presence, the team at Flipcause has literally been AMAZING and helpful with all our requests in a timely manner.
PROSThe best part about Flipcause is the support team you get to help you set up websites, campaigns, and online donations. It saves us so much time not to have to learn an entirely new platform. It's like having an entire team working for our success on demand. Thank you Flipcause!
CONSIn my experience, the donate page has to open to a new tab in order to work and this extra step is confusing for donors and not user-friendly on mobile devices.
Reason for choosing Flipcause
We are early stage and really like the one to one support team with Flipcause.
Reasons for switching to Flipcause
The platform was hard to use, didn't provide a support team, and was the same cost. Also, Flipcause has donor management built in which is the backbone of our website, making it much more impactful for our organization's needs.

Dreadful Company + Terrible Customer Service
Not one benefit. This was supposed to be for our agency website. We serve the homeless with severe and persistent mental illness and did not receive the support needed. What a waste of money - $3,600 + a pending $1,800 that I am currently disputing with our credit card company.
PROSI have nothing positive to say about this company!
CONSWe never got it to work. We paid for it for 2 years and now that I'm trying to terminate the 3rd year that I did not request, I am being given the run around.

Hi Mary Ann, I'm sorry to hear about your negative experience! Your refund was processed 8/1 and you should see it in your account in 3-5 business days from that date. Our goal is to provide value to your organization; not to keep you locked into our platform. Your positive experience is extremely important to us and we will be reaching out directly to make sure this is fully resolved.

Great product at an amazing price
Flipcause is always easy to contact and work with. We're super happy with our partnership.
PROSFlipcause helps us do more with less. Our previous software was expensive and to have full functionality it would require us to pay more, but with Flipcause we have everything at the one price. We're able to do everything we need from campaigns to event sign-ups and everything in between. The big thing we love is how much we can customize every element.
CONSI wish we had more ability to contact our donors within different segments to help drive donations.
Reason for choosing Flipcause
Flipcause was built for smaller non-profits so it offered the features we needed at a great price.
Reasons for switching to Flipcause
Network for Good was way more expensive, charged for additional elements, and didn't offer nearly as much customization.
Vendor Response
Hi Kyle, Thanks for the review! We're so glad you feel super happy with our partnership and that you find us easy to contact and work with. That's what we strive for! It's also great to hear that you can do everything you need, from campaigns to event sign-ups and everything in between, and that you love how you can customize every element. Also, thanks for sharing your suggestion to have more ways to contact your donors within different segments to help drive donations. I'll be sure to share it with the team. In the meantime, don't hesitate to reach out with any questions or concerns!

Great for Entry Level or Advanced Fundraising
Great overall experience. Have raised over $2M since incept with the software. Support department is good to respond to any problems.
PROSIt's fast and easy to create impactful campaigns and launch them online. You have creative control over the output. They are not "cookie-cutter" pages.
CONSThere is nothing I don't like about the software. I don't like having to use the payment processor Flipcause chose, but it is a condition of the software use. Rates are too high and transfers are taking too long.
Reason for choosing Flipcause
Pricing and ease of use seemed better with Flipcause.

Hi Robert, Thanks for taking the time to leave us a review! It's a pleasure to hear that you have had a very good overall experience with us and have raised over $2M since your incept with us.

Great service and interface
After a brief period, I was able to use Flipcause with ease. A giant improvement over doing everything manually on Google sheets. I can easily see who is donating, how much, and when.
CONSSome aspects are non-intuitive and cumbersome. I don't always quickly find what I am looking for if I am doing anything beyond routine activities.
Reason for choosing Flipcause
It was easier to use and more reasonably priced. I love how it works in terms of service and saving on processing fees
Reasons for switching to Flipcause
Our organization grew too quickly for Google to be practical. PayPal took too much money.

Flipcause Fan
We are a small organization with a very small staff, but we serve a large five-county region. Since we've had Flipcause we've become so much more efficient in connecting with people and creating relationships with them. We have been able to run reports that help decide in what direction to move our organization. The pandemic has not slowed our growth due to the type of demographic we serve and it's been really important to have a CRM that does all the work for us as far as reporting, tracking, event planning, and helping decide our next moves. It's also been helpful in analyzing who our donors are, something an organization like ours wasn't able to do before. I would say Flipcause has been in the forefront of our growth as an organization. Our Team at Flipcause is extremely professional and knowledgeable. They are also very quick to respond to a question or if we need help, even though we are on the opposite coast. They make it easy to contact them through their website or by email. As the administrator for Flipcause on our end, and as the outreach director, it's good to know I have their support - they're a great scaffold and because of that my anxiety about making sure everything works is alleviated!
PROSWe love the ease of use. The Contact Database is user friendly for all our staff. And as the Outreach Director for our small organization it's taken minimal time and effort to learn how to do our own campaigns. It allows us to be more creative, and build campaigns to integrate into our website which we would not have done before because we would always have an outsider do it for us with more time constraints and less flexibility. This has really helped grow our organization. But even better is that someone from Flipcause will do all the work for us if we are not able as part of our subscription, and at no extra charge. This alleviates so much stress! The other part we really like is that we can build and manage our own website. Being an organization with constant information changes, this is so important and helps our website be more inclusive because we can do our own updates anytime we want. The platform is user friendly, but again, Flipcause can do it for us at NO EXTRA CHARGE if we need it. For a small organization this is amazing!
CONSWould like to have an integrated email blast system instead of having to use a separate platform like Mailchimp or Constant Contact. We hear it's coming!
Reason for choosing Flipcause
It was awhile ago, but we did think some of the platforms were not conducive to a small organization and didn't want to be a small fish in a big pond.

Hi Caroline, Thank you so much for your thorough review. Wow, we're so happy to hear that you've been able to do so much using Flipcause! We love hearing that you've been able to get creative and easily set up your own campaigns and that you've been able to rely on your Success Team when you've needed support. We're also glad to hear that your contact database freed up some time for your small team, and has given you valuable insight into your donor base. Let us know if there's anything else we can do to help!

Great product and service!
Website maintenance. Consolidating payments, donations, events into one place.
PROSWe have been using Flipcause to manage our website, donations, payments, and events. The program and service has been a huge help and customer service is a great time saver on those busy days when you need something posted/done and don't have the time to get it done.
CONSThe reports could be a bit more streamlined and easier to arrange. I need basic info like name, contact info, their registration type, or donation amount, etc. I would also like to see how many registrations a person has instead of seeing their name 10 times in a list. Its very time consuming to condense the lists to use at check-in/to track donations/registrations.
Reason for choosing Flipcause
better price for what we got, consolidation of features
Reasons for switching to Flipcause
Consolidation, lower fees for payments/donations, help with website updates.

New to Website Management
I was brand new to using websites, campaign management, and donor management. Flipcause was recommended to me by a colleague at another Agency. The customer service is exceptional! They are so responsive and patient with my endless questions and over time, I have learned to do things on my own that I didn't initially think I could do! From the look of our website to the customer service provided, I couldn't be more pleased.
PROSI love all of the features Flipcause offers. When I decided to go with Flipcause, the customer service walked me through every step of migrating away from our WordPress platform to Flipcause. The website looks wonderful, my volunteers are using it and I much more confidence in my role as a website/donor manager!!
CONSI can't think of anything at this time.
Reason for choosing Flipcause
Although Qgiv was more affordable, it didn't offer the volunteer management component I was looking for.
Reasons for switching to Flipcause
WordPress was difficult to use and I did not know HTML. I couldn't run reports, or create campaigns or upload videos without a lot of difficulties.

The only problem we have with Flipcause
There are so many good things about this platform including ease of not having to pay for our website. We can sell tickets to events and signups for volunteer opportunities.
PROSUser Friendly and excellent team response to questions
CONSIt takes way too long for us to get our money. It can take up up to 2 weeks which is not acceptable especially at yearend when so many people are donating but those dollars do not end up in your bank account for the end of the fiscal year. It makes me want to look for another platform.
Reason for choosing Flipcause
Less expensive and helps manage our website. Network does not provide such options.
