About Zeffy

Zeffy is a comprehensive fundraising platform for nonprofit organizations. The platform offers a range of features to support nonprofits in their fundraising efforts, such as ticketing, donations, peer-to-peer campaigns, and eCommerce.

A key aspect of Zeffy is its commitment to being 100% free for nonprofits. There are no transaction fees, platform fees, or any other fees. Nonprofits using Zeffy can keep all of the donations they receive, as Zeffy's revenue comes from voluntary contributions made by donors during the payment process. This unique model allows nonprofits to maximize the impact of their fundraising.

The Zeffy platform is designed to be user-friendly and customizable. Nonprofits can create branded donation pages and launch peer-to-peer campaigns using the platform's tools and resources. With a focus on simplicity and efficiency, Zeffy provides nonprofits with a reliable and cost-effective fundraising solution.

Saving Time and Money

Zeffy has been the major fundraising platform for The Llama Sanctuary since 2024 and it has made a huge difference to the administration. Previously, we used Mailchimp for email campaigns, Events for event booking and guided tours and separate fundraising platforms. All of that is now condensed into one entity making life so much easier and in the process, the amount of money saved in fees each year is enough to pay the feed bill for entire month! Oh! Did I mention it is absolutely free to use?

Functionality

Pros:

Zeffy is constantly improving, updating and enhancing the tools and the support team actually listens to requests and implements new features all the time. There has never been an issue with the finance aspect and The Llama Sanctuary can count on receiving a payout, on the dot, every week.

Cons:

At the moment, Zeffy lacks some of the refinements and tools that bespoke email platforms, event organisers and online stores can offer. The email creation element is still a bit crude and clunky and site navigation can be counter-intuitive (to me at least).

Reasons for switching to Zeffy

Fees and ease of having everything under one roof!

Makes Business Easier-Thank you!

Zeffy has allowed me to free up cognitive bandwidth by automating things like tax receipts, donation deposits, closing sales and scheduling other features. Those little things matter! I love the CRM-like features that assist with communications. I love that I can do so much in one place, within one system. I would pay for a for-profit version of this same system, and I'm actively seeking a close alternative for for-profits.

Functionality

Pros:

Everything in one place: donor information, financial information, fundraising & email campaign management. I love that Zeffy automatically transfers deposits to the bank, and I can set it to automatically send Tax receipts. The CRM -like features make it easy to segment audiences for communications, and makes smart recommendations. I love that I was given an unsolicited website overview for how to maximize Zeffy's platform. That's initiative! All this and the help center is good too! Easy to use & Free!

Cons:

Sometimes I wish there was a little bit more design/editing access for campaign tools, but this is minor. Mostly, I love this platform!

Reasons for switching to Zeffy

Because Zeffy allowed us to take payments, track and manage our events, did not take any of the donation and automatically transferred the money for us. With Paypal, we literally have to go initiate a transfer. I set up Zeffy for the event management features, but found it does so much more and I love it. The CRM features are a huge plus

Pros:

Having multiple options to offer our supporters. I love that there is no fee as with a nonprofit we want to use our funds for our mission. I love how easy it is to create campaigns and send thank you emails to our donors.

Cons:

That I didn't start using Zeffy sooner. I have t found a con to this software. Everything works so smooth and payments are super easy to get deposited to our bank account.

Functionality

Pros:

The fact that this product is free to use is incredible. Being able to process payments online so seamlessly without being charged an arm and a leg (in fact without being charged a cent!) is a fundraising game changer for small non-profits like ours! The interface is very user friendly, intuitive even, and extracting data from campaigns is quick and easy. With their new POS app that can be downloaded onto any phone, they’ve saved us the need to purchase a square reader: staff and volunteers can just download the app and begin scanning tickets or taking donations!

Cons:

The product is still new so it doesn’t have quite as many features as other similar products. However, they are highly responsive to customer feedback and constantly adding new features to meet the evolving needs of the non-profit community.

Reasons for switching to Zeffy

We found the fees for processing payments too high.

Ease of use, affordability being that we are a non-profit. I also like that I could personalize my look and feel to my audience!

We are so happy we found Zeffy!

It has been great. The few times I did need help I was able to get that from the help center and even then someone from Zeffy followed up with an email to make sure I got everything I needed. I also really like the tax exempt forms which are automatically created when our supporters donate.

Functionality

Pros:

Zeffy is free, so that is the first thing. The platform is very user-friendly and anything I did not understand I could get guidance from the help or online chat. I also really like the ability to accept electronic payments with ease, the ease of creating campaigns and it really provides a very professional look for our organization.

Cons:

I can't think of anything that I currently do not like. Zeffy has given us the opportunity to have 100% of our donations go directly to us and the customer has the choice to provide a "tip", which is how Zeffy makes a profit. It is a "win, win".

Reasons for choosing Zeffy

We still utilize PayPal, but sparingly because there is a fee even for non-profits for credit card payments.

Love Zeffy & highly recommend it!

Very positive. I can actually use Zeffy (and I couldn't say that about the last product). It was relatively easy to set up. It took me days to set up the last donor database product. With Zeffy, it took an hour or two.

Pros:

1. It is easy to use!!!! I am not a web developer. The last donor database product we had (AND paid for!) was difficult and frustrating to use. This is customer friendly, even for those who aren't familiar with these kinds of products. 2. It's free! 3. I believe the support is AI driven. Every time I have needed support, I had to believe I was "speaking" with a live human. It's that good. I always get the support I need in a timely fashion. That is SO important.

Cons:

It's not that flexible. For example, I needed to reorder my contacts alphabetically and I was unable to do so.

Reasons for switching to Zeffy

Unhappy with Bloomerang functionality and the cost.

Great product and program that provided all the information I needed for a non-profit event. It tracked donations as well as ticket sales and gave me spreadsheets whenever I needed. Staff were very helpful and quick to respond to tickets. Great experience. Made tracking my event sales so much easier.

Software is easy to use and navigate. Very short learning curve. The ability to collect funds for free without the trouble of collecting and depositing checks or cash was the strongest selling point.

We were collecting dues in $30 increments. The default fee to the members was relatively high. We explained how to change the fee if desired, but not everyone understood, got a few complaints as a result.
