JustGiving vs M-Changa

JustGiving helps people raise money for charities and causes they care about. Supporters can create personalised fundraising pages, shape their stories and share pages using built-in tools. Charities can build branded campaign hubs that bring donations and connected fundraising pages together for events, appeals or projects. Giving Checkout provides customisable direct-donation forms with 0% processing and platform fees on direct donations; UK Gift Aid processing carries a 5% fee. Other donations have a stated processing fee of 1.9% + £0.30, or 2.90% + £0.30 for donations in another currency, except fee-free Giving Checkout donations. Reporting supports up to eight saved report templates, selected-data exports and donor opt-in collection. Listed integrations include Strava, Eventbrite, ACTIVE Works, Blackbaud products, Microsoft Dynamics 365 and Salesforce-related options. Start has no monthly subscription fee, though standard processing fees and a 5% Gift Aid reclaim fee apply. Grow is listed at £15 a month under stated VAT and annual fundraising thresholds. Eligible registered charities and nonprofits can join from the UK, United States, Canada, Australia and New Zealand.

M-Changa is an online and mobile fundraising platform for individuals and institutions. Fundraisers can create a customizable share page with a story, pictures, videos, and a target, for causes such as medical bills, construction, emergencies, funerals, weddings, churches, school fees, group projects, and sports clubs. Donations can be made through mobile money, Visa, MasterCard, and PayPal; card and PayPal options are listed for worldwide use. Recurring donations are supported. In Kenya, users can register, share, and manage a fundraiser by dialing *483*57#, and USSD fundraisers can view donation, withdrawal, and expense statements. Campaigns can be shared through Facebook, X, WhatsApp, and SMS. The listed platform fee is 4.25% on donations, reduced to 3.5% for fundraisers that raise KES 3,000,000 or more within 30 days. Withdrawal fees vary by method and amount. A phone line can manage one active fundraiser at a time, though it can contribute to unlimited fundraisers. The service is available on iOS and the web.
