## Reviews

### "Happy With DonorBox" — 4.0/5

> **Adam** | *17 September 2025* | Nonprofit Organisation Management | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Extremely easy to set-up Campaigns and Donation pages in the back-end&#10;Easy connectivity to Stripe and ability to have multiple payment methods is a plus&#10;Support has been very responsive and easy to work with&#10;60% of our donors cover platform fees, which saves our organization money
> 
> **Cons**: Salesforce integration is very light-weight and doesn't function well with existing Contacts \&amp; Accounts&#10;There have been some glitches re: some form codes not behaving correctly on the website (without any indication as to "why")&#10;Branding is limited to the main organization on the Account; you can't do conditional logos based on a different 501(c)(3) that's under our same umbrella
> 
> We had to join DonorBox in a pinch, and it was very easy to set-up and use. It's been a very good platform for us.

### "Seamless, Accessible, and Mission-Aligned" — 5.0/5

> **Jennifer** | *16 September 2025* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I appreciated how intuitive and streamlined the site-building process was. The platform is free to start, which made it accessible during early development, and the transaction fees are refreshingly low compared to other fundraising tools. It’s a practical solution for mission-driven organizations working with limited budgets.
> 
> **Cons**: There’s very little to critique, but one limitation is its reliance on external visibility—particularly through social media. Without an active presence or promotional strategy on platforms like Instagram, Facebook, or YouTube, it can be challenging to gain traction or drive meaningful engagement. The tool itself functions well, but its impact depends heavily on how well you amplify it beyond the platform.
> 
> Overall Experience: My experience with Donorbox has been overwhelmingly positive. The platform offers a clean, intuitive interface that made it easy to set up fundraising tools without technical barriers. As a founder managing multiple federally aligned sanctuaries, I appreciated the low transaction fees and free entry point—especially during early development stages. Donorbox supports mission-driven work by staying affordable and functional, though its impact is best amplified through active social media engagement. Overall, it’s a reliable and accessible solution for organizations focused on healing, justice, and community care.

### "Decent platform" — 4.0/5

> **Derek** | *11 April 2026* | Nonprofit Organisation Management | Recommendation rating: 3.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Easy to use for both customers and client. well laid out, established, nice appearance well designed
> 
> **Cons**: Fees are not as high as some companies, but are still higher than others. I recently switched to a different platform that didn’t charge fees to nonprofits to make below a certain amount.
> 
> Good easy to navigate self-explanatory customizable I enjoyed working with it while we were working with it

### "EARN's review of Donorbox partnership" — 3.0/5

> **Professor Sylvester** | *17 September 2025* | Environmental Services | Recommendation rating: 2.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Engagement, communication and support for partners and donors.Fundraising and campaign ability. Support team works and respond quickly and effectively.
> 
> **Cons**: Inability to coordinate activities of partners and processors of payment such as Stripe and PayPal  Confusion in differentiating between donations and sales/purchases all lumped together. PayPal  is more guilty in this confusion when it forcefully seized EARN 's donations claiming we purchased goods whereas we sre nonprofit Organization which doesn't engage in buy and sale. PayPal unethically seized our donation of $20 and refused to pay while Donorbox watched helplessly and couldn't settle or intervene.
> 
> The overall experience was good  ut the payment processing using only Stripe and PayPal doesn't  give room for global payment gateway. Donorbox  could consider Electronic Funds Transfer(EFT) for expanded international operations.

### "Not for the little guy" — 3.0/5

> **Noelle** | *8 February 2026* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 1.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Easy to use. The platform is simple enough.  Not confusing.  It was ok.  Nothing special.  Nothing fantastic.  It was good .
> 
> **Cons**: It’s expensive. Most nonprofits have no money.  People think donations are flowing for all.  A lot of us don’t have it.
> 
> It was decent.  Wish it was geared toward new nonprofits more. Wish they made it simple to get a lending source that didn’t include using your social.  It’s a nonprofit.  Why should anyone have to put their personal info out there
