### "Love Give WP"

August 26, 2024

5.0

Very helpful. Lots of payment gateway options.

Pros

It's easy to use, support is very good. I like that they respond with a written and video demo of the solution.

Cons

Would like to see the following features... -Email the fundraisers from the system. -Provide a button to see all current donors on each fundraisers page (not just the last six). -Allow a video on the main campaign page (right now its just a photo).

### "Best donation plugin for Wordpress"

December 10, 2024

5.0

Support staff are fast to respond, competent and helpful.

Pros

Ease of use and fit for purpose, this is my go-to plugin for all non-profit clients.

Cons

There are some bugs but they are always promptly resolved by support staff.

Alternatives considered

Reason for choosing GiveWP

Creating a professional looking donation form is so much easier.

### "Want customer emails to be leaked? Great choice for that."

August 1, 2025

1.0

Terrible customer service, and complete failure to own up to their mistakes. Blaming their users for them leaving gaping holes that expose customer emails, even those that chose the anonymous option.

Pros

Their software development leaves a lot to be desired, so I suppose you could look at it as a pro that they have a lot of room to grow.

Cons

They managed to leak every single donor in a way that was exploitable to anyone who is able to use the right mouse button, and then blamed their users and insisted that this easily exploitable flaw couldn't have been the result of these lists leaking.

### "Great Plugin + Excellent Support"

December 19, 2024

5.0

Not only does the GiveWP plugin address all of my client’s donation needs and present a visually attractive interface for donors, the support is superb! No matter the issue, I receive fast responses that quickly resolve my issues. As far as I am concerned, this is a trifecta!

Pros

The service is outstanding--regardless of the problem, I receive precise and speedy support.

Cons

So many options, but that's not really a "con." Just took me a while to get through setting up the plugin.

### "Product support is a good reason to go with GiveWP"

June 20, 2025

5.0

Frustrated with a problem that was NOT GiveWP's fault. \[sensitive content hidden\] spent serious time with me figuring out that there is an issue with the credit card processor. Startup problems aside, the product is feature-rich, and has a lot of capabilities.

Pros

Tech support when I need it. A difficult problem, discussed via email, was escalated to a top flight tech support person, who analyzed the problem with me, and got me headed in the right direction

Cons

Pretty complicated to use. There are so many features, setup is not trivial. Fortunaely, there is a wealth of documentation and real people when you need them.

### "Credit Card and PayPal malfunction for 6 weeks - support terrible"

February 11, 2025

1.0

It was ok, not great, for awhile. Seemed slow. But for the last 6 weeks - a critical time for us to take in donations, the credit card and paypal functions aren't working. Our designer has reached out multiple times and we keep thinking the problem is fixed and then it isn't. It is a terrible feeling to have generous donors give up because of WP Gives lousy development.

Pros

The pro was that my designer knew how to set this up.

Cons

We have had two months of failed credit card and paypal donation connectivity. We had one donor give up and wire us money. This has been ongoing since the middle of January and depite multiple attempts to fix the problem our donors still cant complete the payment. I tried myself just now and got a spinning wheel at the end and it doesn't appear to have taken.

### "Excellet solution to accept website donations"

September 2, 2025

5.0

Excellent experience, we have it on a customer site (NGO) running smoothly. Had some issues with the latest update, but solved with same day free support service.

Pros

Excellent website solution for donations with a fantastic support service even with the fremium option.

Cons

To say something, might take some time to get familiar with all the set up options, but just like any other tool.

### "Great product for processing and growing online donations"

August 14, 2023

5.0

Pros

GiveWP's customisable forms are a very important feature, allowing us to host unique forms for our different appeals and sell our fundraising products that give benefits to people signing up for a monthly gift.

Cons

It is sometimes difficult to tell, at a glance, when regular donations are new subscriptions or renewals. Both in Donations view and exports, payment status occasionally says "Complete" rather than "Renewal"

September 25, 2023

5.0

Pros

Give WP support is unrivaled. Patient and enduring, they stick it out to help you troubleshoot plugin conflicts or random glitches. They've been helpful and amazing along the way.

Cons

Because so much is offered, it can be intimidating at first.

November 22, 2023

4.0

Pros

The plugin ticked all the boxes whilst developing a website to allow for donations to be made to a hospice. When researched what plugin to use this came very highly recommended and I'm glad we tried it.

Cons

If I was to state any cons I would say there's a lot of settings to manage but once its running you don't need to change them

December 27, 2023

Great experience. Customer support and there are plenty of tutorials to walk you through implementation.

Pros

As a web developer from many years ago, online credit card processing was a very difficult thing to do. With GiveWP, it's extremely easy.

Cons

So far, we have not found anything we dislike

### "The Gold Standard for customer support, Give WP."

May 30, 2025

5.0

100% satisfactory! When I had a problem (much of which was due to my own misunderstanding), they went above and beyond to get it solved

Pros

The customer service and the support are among the best I have ever experienced in over 25 years of online work for clients. Quite honestly, if I could give 1000 stars, I would.

Cons

Really nothing, it's a great plugin. I would say that anything anyone would run into as a problem, all they have to do is contact customer support and the team there stays with you until the issue is solved. Rare air in today's world.

The customer support has always been amazing. Prompt responses with clear instructions and great follow-up.

Pros

The platform is easy to use, has continuous product updates and is affordable. It meets the needs of our small nonprofit clients well.

Cons

I cannot think of anything that I do not like. I recommend it to all of our small nonprofit clients who use WordPress.

### "Everything I need in a donation plug-in"

January 29, 2025

5.0

GiveWP's customer service is top-notch, and (as someone who is not a web designer) the plug-in is easy to navigate and very user-friendly. Whenever I get stuck, GiveWP's customer service unsticks me.

Pros

It's user-friendly and flexible, and provides all the options I need at a reasonable price.

Cons

There isn't anything that I like least about it. I'm a pretty basic user and it provides everything I need.
