Givebear vs Mybers

Givebear provides donation kiosks and online giving for mosques, churches, schools, nonprofits and other community organizations. Donors can give at a kiosk, through a donation page or QR code, or by paying membership dues and event tickets. Gifts are recorded against the fund selected by the donor, and gifts and recurring plans from these sources appear together in a donor history. Givebear sends email receipts and year-end statements and provides reports exportable by fund and date range. Its 21.5-inch kiosk accepts Apple Pay, Google Pay and contactless cards, with English, Arabic, Spanish and Turkish support. It can accept one-time gifts offline, but recurring gifts need a live connection. Donation forms can be embedded on named website builders, and a QuickBooks Online connection can post payout journal entries split by fund, with fees and refunds broken out. Stripe processes card payments; Givebear says its servers receive tokenized payment references, not raw card numbers. The Free plan is free and carries a 5.9% platform fee per gift; Plus is $29 a month and Growth is $39 a month, billed annually at the listed rates. Stripe processing is passed through at cost.

Mybers is an AI-powered membership management service for associations, clubs, studios, gyms, and other member groups. It brings together member records, dues, events, classes, bookings, payments, and email. The member database supports custom fields, membership levels, tags, self-registration, a member portal, and QR code cards. Teams can set up in-person, virtual, or hybrid events, sell tickets, manage registrations and check-ins, and schedule recurring classes and appointments. Payments pass through an organization’s own Stripe account, with funds going directly to it; self-serve plans list flat fees of 1% on dues and 2% on class passes. Email tools include audience filtering, merge fields, scheduling, delivery tracking, and unsubscribe links. Mynd includes an AI phone agent for inbound calls and renewal outreach, member-data queries, drafted communications, and setup assistance. The Starter plan is free. Club costs $39 a month and Pro costs $79 a month; a 14-day trial is listed. It runs on Android, iOS, web, and API.
