Suitable eary-midstage platform

It's been satisfactory or we wouldn't still be here. I anticipate that we would be switching within the next couple of years to a platform that has a bit more ease about it. Customer service is decent, not wonderful due to time lapses, but when we connect I've felt supported, questions have been answered or situations solved.

Pros:
Fairly easy to set up website & change content. I like that there are campaigns that can be shelved, copied or deleted and that they can be integrated in a number of ways.
Cons:
Lot's of chunky parts... ease of use regarding campaigns, types of sign-ups, limited offerings that would allow further control / design on our side. No crm option. If I were in the middle of creating xyz I'd be able to give better details. The percentage donors are charged has been a problem for many and we don't get back the amount I thought we were which was disappointing.

Flipcause is the BEST!

As much as I expect good service, my Flipcause team, from the very first contact, has made me feel like they are friends. I am always treated with patience and kindness and of course knowledge. I have been moved to joyous tears on many occasions as I have been led down the path of an outstanding website, a happy team and people who understand my dream, not just my needs. I honor Flipcause every chance I get and cannot imagine not being a part of the program in any way. Thank you, thanks you, thank you!

Flipcause is AWESOME for nonprofits.

5

FLFR started using Flipcause in 2018. They made it very easy to integrate databases of donors to their activity tracker. And to transfer information from our old website to their system. After 6 years of using Flipcause we are delighted. Their system is easy and secure. We highly recommend their software and services.

Pros:
The activity tracker, the ability to create campaigns and donation pages, the quick and efficient way in which they respond to our emails - it is human support!!! How easy it is to update our website. It is a reasonable yearly fee for a small non-profit. It has helped Friends of the Locust Fork River be organized, be better at fundraising, and become well known nonprofit in our community.
Cons:
Nothing. We like it all! Since I am to write 40 characters, I can say that some of our board members have struggled a bit getting reports. Other than that it is great.

Reasons for switching to Flipcause

Because we didn't have everything integrated. The campaigns, the database, the record of donations, etc

Stay far, far away

They promised long, delivered short. The promise was that they would build us a website that we could take with us should we decide to leave (a lie); that funds would, upon request, be transferred into our bank account in 7 - 10 working days (a really big lie); and that their reports would be useful to us (so not true - an Excel spreadsheet worked better).

Pros:
At the outset, they were helpful. But the amount of money we paid for the service was much too high, and although supposedly we had a “team” available to us, it’s no good if “team” members don’t respond to emails. Our small non-profit had big, big regrets about working with them.
Cons:
The most egregious behavior came when our small non-profit requested transfer of our funds. FlipCause promises 7 - 10 working days; it always took at least 2 months, several emails, phone calls to the CEO (Sean Wheeler), which were never returned, and threats to file a complaint with the CA Attorney General’s office. We did file a complaint with the BBB.

Reasons for choosing Flipcause

At the time, they promised a great service. Unfortunately, we believed them.

Excessively long wait times for funds

2

If you have enough backup funds that you can wait for long periods of time for funds, they are fabulous, but if you rely on donations, registration fees and ticket sales for day-to-day functioning, sadly, we cannot recommend them. Although I hate to walk away from the almost 9 years of institutional history that is easily accessible in our Flipcause Dashboard, I am actively looking for an alternative service.

Pros:
We've used Flipcause since 2017. I've always been really happy with the ease of use, and I've loved that they can handle donations, monthly donations, ticket sales, class registrations, and even peer-to-peer fundraising. It's not the prettiest interface, but we've had no technical issues at all, and when we've had questions about how to use the product, customer service has been excellent. Plus, it's affordable for our small non-profit.
Cons:
Our complaint is that the time we have to wait for funds to be transferred to our bank keeps getting longer and longer. For the first several years, we would always get our transfers within the 7-10 business days it states on the website, but the wait time keeps getting longer and longer, and if you don't aggressively hound them, your funds will not be transferred. I've waited as long as 4 months. It takes them a long time to response, and I just get the same response over and over - they keep saying they are having trouble with their ACH provider, but that trouble has been going on for well over two years.

Reasons for switching to Flipcause

We wanted an integrated service that was more streamlined.

Stay Away From Flipcause

1

Prior to May of 2024 we loved this company and their platform. Now, I just want to warn people to keep looking. Something is going on there that isn't OK and they aren't transparent about it. Today, it absolutely should not take 7-10 for a merchant account to transfer funds. We work with 3 other merchant accounts and can have our funds instantly or within 3 days and there is no gate keeper. When we hit transfer, they transfer. With Flipcause, you hit transfer and the funds get stuck somewhere for weeks and weeks. I am afraid one day the funds won't even come late. Something is going on there that isn't good! Keep Looking!

Pros:
Prior to May of 2024 I would have rated Flipcause 10 out of 10. We have been a customer for over four years without an issue. That is no longer true and I think anyone considering contracting with this company needs to be aware of the major financial issues that are happening there and with client's donations.
Cons:
The process for moving donations from Flipcause to our bank has always been clunky but workable. We have to request the transfer and then the contract gives them 7-10 days to transfer. That worked fine until mid 2024 when it started taking 2, 3 and 4 weeks. And every transfer requires emails begging for our funds to be released. No accountability, no phone number, no manager to connect with. They are interfering with nonprofits ability to execute their mission by illegally withholding funds with no explanation and no attempt to fix it. The last thing I have time for is finding a new platform and migrating our website but we have zero choice at this point. We have battling this for a year and we are done. Flipcause refuses to let us integrate a different merchant account on our donation page until theirs is working properly. Effectively cutting off our funds with no solutions or recourse.

Reasons for switching to Flipcause

Firespring got too expensive. Flipcause has not solved their merchant account issues for a year and the delays for deposits are increasing, up to 30 days. There is no one to talk to about what the problem is and when it will be resolved.

Pros:
Good dashboard, good feature set. Good help with our website.
Cons:
Flipcause holds on to your money. They claim to process your donations in 7-10 business days which is already too long, but we have to demand payment months later. The last time we had donations transferred into our account was 2 months ago. This is the 3rd time we have had to threaten them to deposit our donations. They are either incompetent, screwing us by holding our donations in float, or going bankrupt.

Reasons for switching to Flipcause

Lower fees, which is a joke because we don't get paid.

Helpful Website Tools but Unreliable Fund Transfers

2

While Flipcause provides some helpful tools for nonprofits, particularly in website support and donor engagement, the core function of reliably transferring donor funds was a consistent failure. This not only caused operational hardship but also reputational damage for our organization. Unfortunately, despite some good support from their team, the recurring issues with fund transfers made the platform unworkable for us.

Pros:
Flipcause was very helpful in redesigning our nonprofit’s website and integrating it with their platform. Their success team usually responds to inquiries in a timely manner and offers useful support on general technical issues.
Cons:
The major issue is the failure to transfer donor funds in a timely manner. Despite their policy stating 7–10 business days for ACH transfers, Flipcause consistently delayed payments, sometimes holding funds for weeks. On several occasions, we had to threaten to cancel before receiving partial resolution. Eventually, we terminated our account because this problem persisted. Additionally, the platform is expensive at $125 per month, which is not justified given these challenges.

Pros:
I would say none that outweigh the negatives of high fees and holding funds for a month. They have someone to chat with and they can help with technical matters but you wait forever for the money your donors thought they were making accessible to you immediately online.
Cons:
Their transaction fee's are almost DOUBLE what other platforms are. They charge 5.9% + .30 PER TRANSACTION...what donor wants to pay that? And they hold your money for well over 30 days, we have two accounts with them are changing asap. Someone gives online with a credit card, and you don't receive it for at least 21 days. Pretty absurd.
