The best part for me is the ease for our donors. It is simple and straight forward. Establishing appeals for specific fund-raising works well too. The links work and are secure. I am very happy with Giving Tools for our non-profit organization.

Pros

We are a small organization, and the personal help and troubleshooting along the way has been amazing. Jason in customer service is timely and extremely helpful. The giving portal is easy for our donors to use. We are 100% funded by private donations so the ease and security of the site is vital.

Cons

The report generation is not the easiest, and when recording the donations and trying separate out the fee of that donation, it isn't immediately available. But overall, I am so very happy and thankful for the site.

Response from Vendor

November 25, 2025

Thank you! For expenses, we support a number of processors and you would need to check with your processing account. One day should we offer less processor support, we might bring that data feature up a notch, I know that would be handy, but is a balancing act, and the processor options seem to be winning so far! On the plus side, your rate is not variable and we can help you find it. With that in hand, you can even set the system to allow donors to cover that sum. If you are not using that feature yet, we can help you set that up for you if you like the donor-aid fee feature in the settings section of your dashboard). Thank you again for your kind words.

Giving Tools has helped us raise money for our non-profit. It provides all the basic components of fund raising and makes money transfer easy.

Pros

Giving tools is both inexpensive and a great help at setting up effective fund raising campaigns for our non-profit.

Cons

We use them to coordinate with Bambora, a service that receives funds and transfers them to our bank. Bambora has a complex system of sending funds to our bank that is quite difficult to incorporate into our accounting software. It was not easy to figure out.. It needs to be made much simpler for Giving Tools to be a top flight program.

Reasons for choosing GivingTools

Givinig tools was least expensive

Keep in mind that you can track desposits to your bank account from withing GivingTools by clicking "Include Deposit Information" on an export. We are moving a lot of that function right into the dashboard, but for now, that is the best way to track it.
