<p>The only 100% free donation plugin for nonprofits. No platform fees, no transaction<br />
fees, no credit card fees — every dollar your donors give goes directly to your cause.</p>
<p>Trusted by over 100,000 nonprofits across the US and Canada, Zeffy has helped<br />
organizations raise more than $2 billion. Churches, food banks, animal rescues,<br />
schools, and community foundations use Zeffy to collect donations on their WordPress<br />
sites without losing a cent to platform charges.</p>
<p>Most donation plugins charge a percentage of every gift, a monthly subscription, or<br />
both. Zeffy charges nothing. Zeffy is funded entirely by optional tips that donors<br />
can choose to leave — your nonprofit keeps 100% regardless. Zeffy is also a<br />
certified B Corp, and has been supporting nonprofits for over 7 years.</p>
