Just be aware, that the way Zeffy arranges to be “no-fee” to the organization is to pass the fee on to the consumer instead. Thanx, Ric Goldman [email protected] and I reply: Is that correct? I have no experience with them but the home page claims, at the bottom: "Zeffy makes money exclusively from optional tips from your donors" and goes into some detail below that. "Zeffy relies entirely on optional tips from your donors. When making a payment on a Zeffy form, your donors can choose to contribute to Zeffy or not. On average, 2 out of 3 donors leave us a tip. This is enough to cover all our costs and re-invest in the development of Zeffy. Zeffy has been working with nonprofits for 7 years and, thanks to this 100% free model, currently supports 100,000 organizations across North America." "Donors are never forced to tip Zeffy. They can leave an optional tip if they want to support Zeffy. If they don't, the nonprofit still keeps 100% of the money raised." This is certainly counterintuitive - it sounds like they're eating the credit-card processing fees and making it up from optional tips. Ric, do you have experience which contradicts these home page claims? -- Alan -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
