Excellent for non-profits

PROS

As a small non-profit it is extremely beneficial to receive all the money you can get and donors still have the option to donate to Zeffy. The tap to pay option has been so useful for us.

CONS

I just wish the tap to pay option was available on Android phones as well, phenomenal tool.

Reason for choosing Zeffy

It had no cost to it

Reasons for switching to Zeffy

Vanco started charging us a monthly fee.

Zeffy is FANDAGO for Non-Profits!

Has been great, especially the customer service. After I signed up, a member of Zeffy emailed and called to check in to see if I had any questions. I've had much follow up since and if I ever have a questions, they respond very quickly! They also listen to my opinions on how to make the site even better.

PROS

I love that it is an entire free platform for non-profits with ZERO credit card processing fees. We have used Square & Stripe in the past and lose out on so much money trying to fundraise.

CONS

Improvements could be made in the Membership area, as it's setup like you're selling tickets to an event. I would suggest that it has its own category on the site.

Reasons for switching to Zeffy

We switched as they charge so much for credit card processing fees. Also, their reports are not the easiest to follow, especially on the financial end, while trying to reconcile our bank accounts.
