What it is

Chuffed is a web crowdfunding platform for socially conscious projects, serving individuals, not-for-profits, social enterprises, and community groups. Organizers can run crowdfunding campaigns, create peer-to-peer fundraiser pages and teams, add website donation forms, and offer regular or matched giving. Stripe and PayPal can be connected to receive donations directly, and Chuffed says campaigners need not meet a goal before accessing funds. Organizers can view donor data in real time, request on-demand reports, post campaign updates, and use email journeys to communicate with donors. Documented integrations include Google Analytics, Mailchimp, Salesforce, Facebook Pixel, and Action Network. Chuffed offers three free pricing models with different fee arrangements: Shared Model has no default platform fee, while campaigners pay 2–3% payment processing fees; Keep 100% Model places card fees on donors and is unavailable to EU/UK campaigners and, from 24 September 2026, Australian campaigns; Flat Fee Model charges campaigners card fees of 2–3% plus a Chuffed platform fee. Donors may add an optional tip in the first two models. Campaigns must meet the Acceptable Use Policy. Founded in 2013, Chuffed describes itself as a Social Benefit Company.
