Product Description

Donately brings a decade of non-profit and campaigning experience into a set of online tools for fundraising & donor management that helps an organizations to make big impact with the least amount of time and expenses.

How do you position yourself against your competitors?

Donately was built by an interactive agency that focuses on non-profit work - so we know what non-profits need. Our focus is simple: By saving you time managing your donations, you can spend more time improving the world around you.

Donately is simple to use, but supremely flexible. In 10 minutes, you can be taking secure donations online with our free hosted campaign pages & embed your donation form into your existing website with a simple copy & paste to take donations without supporters leaving your site. In a few more minutes, you can push your Donately data into your other systems using our full & open API.

And all of that comes with no start-up costs, monthly fees or contracts. We charge simple & transparent transaction fees, which are among the lowest in the market, especially without any of the other costs.

We truly believe online fundraising should be simple.

Donate.ly makes it easy for our donors and supporters (and really anyone who's curious about us) to give. They then make it easy for us to receive the funds. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Donately?

Clean and simple design

Open tech and customer support team -- they really want to make your implementation work. They've done quite a few custom items for us and helped us work with their API Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Donately?

While we've had a great experience customizing Donately for us, there are some other features we'd like to modify but it's not easy to get this done since it would affect other users. So, nothing big - just the basic downfall of a shared platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Donately:

Great customer service - very helpful team that is willing to make it work for your implementation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Bryan Shanaver of Donately
Editedit

Hi Natalie,

Thank you for the review, we appreciate the feedback!

In terms of customizing the embed form, it does allow you to add your own custom fields, like the ones you mention. If you need help with that, reach out to us in support@donate.ly and we'll be happy to provide a snippet.

In addition to that, we're always evolving the base functionality. We have historically always had an 'On Behalf Of' field, but if a similar 'In Honor Of' field is something that many users will find useful - we're happy to add that to the roadmap.

Again, thank you for using Donately & helping us to improve it!

Cheers!
