About our business model

How can Zeffy be 100% free?
Zeffy makes money exclusively from optional tips from your donors. When making a payment on a Zeffy form, they can choose to leave a tip to Zeffy or not.
What if my donors don’t leave a tip?
Donors are never forced to tip. If they don’t, your nonprofit still keeps 100% of the money raised.
Does that really work?
Yes! On average, two-thirds of donors leave a tip for Zeffy. That is enough to cover all our expenses and re-invest in the development of Zeffy.

Kudos from fundraisers like you

Zeffy is a dream solution for our fundraising.

“Working alongside the Zeffy team, we’ve had our two best fundraising years in our agency’s 60-year history! Our reps spent time getting to know our agency and its goals; it's obvious that they care about our success. As far as integrity goes, every promise Zeffy made has been delivered.”

Sarah Cassidy,
Corporate Services Coordinator
Easy to use and suits our needs!

“Prior to 2021, SAT was soliciting very few donations annually. With Zeffy's unique payout method that allows us to keep 100% of our donations, we started our very first annual fundraising campaign. Zeffy has been an essential partner in the success of our campaigns. In one year, we raised over $100,000 in donations!”

Jean-Philippe Alepins,
Director of Public and Private Finance
Zeffy allows us to collect 100% of our donations!

“Simple, intuitive and attractive. In a few clicks, we are able to customize our page to follow our organization’s brand. If we ever have trouble setting things up, it is so simple to get support! The staff is always helpful and provides regular follow up.”

Camille Nineuil,
Psychometrician
We highly recommend Zeffy!

“We have been using Zeffy for some time now for donations and ticket sales for our benefit events. It's a simple and pleasant platform to use. Plus, the customer service is fast and courteous. We highly recommend it.”

Yves Gauthier,
Executive Assistant
We are truly under Zeffy's spell!

“Zeffy is really easy to use, while offering many features that really meet our needs. It's a lot of fun to use! Above all, it is completely free and without transaction fees. This allows our organization to better support our mission of promoting the well-being of young people.”

Joudie Dubois
