FundRazr vs WhyDonate

FundRazr is a crowdfunding and online fundraising platform for individuals, nonprofits, organizations, businesses, schools, sports teams, and other causes. Campaigns can use words, pictures, and videos, with Keep-it-all or All-or-nothing funding. Keep-it-all campaigns can run as long as needed; All-or-nothing campaigns can last up to 60 days. Payments connect to Stripe or PayPal, and funds go directly to those accounts rather than being held by FundRazr. Supported payment methods include credit and debit cards, Google Pay, and Apple Pay. Campaigns can include events, registration forms, tickets, teams, roles, permissions, leaderboards, wishlists, rewards, product variants, inventory, and shipping. Sharing options include Facebook, X, LinkedIn, email, Messenger, and WhatsApp; campaigns can also be embedded on websites. CRM and marketing integrations include Mailchimp and connections through Zapier. Organizations legally able to issue tax receipts can issue them automatically at no extra charge. The Optional Tips plan has no platform fee and payment processing of 2.9% + $0.30, with 95% of donors covering fees. Fee Recovery has a 1% donation-form or 5% fundraising-page platform fee, plus payment processing of 2.9% + $0.30.

WhyDonate is a free online fundraising platform with web and API access for individuals and organizations. Organizers can create campaigns for medical costs, memorials, education, emergencies, and community projects, adding a story, goal, and photos before sharing through built-in tools or social media. Fundraiser pages, donation forms, and emails can carry the organizer’s branding. The service supports recurring donations and provides a WordPress plugin, embeddable donation button, QR code collection, and Zapier connections to Google Sheets, Mailchimp, Salesforce, QuickBooks Online, and Slack. WhyDonate says fundraisers are supported in 100+ countries, 19 languages, and 119 currencies. Its plan costs nothing, with no sign-up fee, monthly cost, or platform fee; payment processing fees apply, and recurring donations incur a 3% platform fee from the second payment. Donor tips cannot be disabled. Identity verification precedes payout, while support is offered by chat, email, or scheduled phone appointments seven days weekly.
