Platform fees : 20% fees on all funds raised.

Snap Raise is a digital fundraising platform designed primarily for schools, sports teams, and other youth organizations. It facilitates online campaigns to raise money efficiently and effectively.

Even though there are zero upfront costs or hidden transaction fees for using Snap! Raise technology, fundraisers will only receive 80% of the overall funds raised. In addition, if fundraisers do not meet their campaign’s goal, an additional fee can be applied (details not publicly available).

What makes Zeffy better for fundraisers like you
"Zeffy was a no-brainer because of their no-fee policy. The fees from other fundraising platforms were holding us back from fully supporting our mission."
