Built for peer-to-peer outreach, both platforms help rally supporters. Givebutter goes further with built-in email marketing, a CRM, auction software, and powerful integrations—all in one platform.
GiveCampus typically requires an annual subscription and a custom quote. Givebutter offers core fundraising tools for free, with no subscription required.
Both platforms are well reviewed for customer support. On G2, Givebutter earns higher average ratings for ease of use and setup, helping teams get up and running faster.
Both platforms support online fundraising, but Givebutter offers a more complete CRM and marketing suite—unlimited contacts, scan-to-donate tools, and deeper messaging analytics—giving teams more flexibility as they grow.
Free forever thanks to optional donor tips

How is Givebutter free?
Thanks to optional donor tips, Givebutter’s core fundraising features are free for all nonprofits. When tips are enabled, you pay $0—backed by the Givebutter Guarantee. Prefer to hide tips? Disable them and pay a flat 3% platform fee plus standard processing fees. For more advanced tools, Givebutter Plus starts at $29/month.
GiveCampus reviews highlight attentive customer service, though access is tied to a paid platform subscription. Givebutter, named the #1 Nonprofit Software of 2026 by G2, earns top marks for support—and offers live workshops and product trainings to all users.
