Top Rated GoFundMe Alternatives
What I like about Go Fund Me is that it's FREE crowdfunding, (except 3% they take...? so how is it free..?) but it's for people who can't afford things or for people with huge goals. I have seen it used for anything from parties to bone surgery. First, it connects using your Facebook to log in, which makes it much faster to get logged in without having to worry about passwords. My other most favorite feature is that you have to make a GOAL, which is the amount of money you want to raise, and it also gives you tips, which they call "Expert Advise 24/7". They tell you how it works, give you fundraising ideas, and also give fundraising tips. Their tips include things like make a reasonable goal and share your story. They also have a well known name, and an easy paying process. It's very simple to earn a lot of money using GoFundMe. It also has a lot of options to share it to other social media. It allows photos and videos as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What I dislike is that it isn't connected to PayPal and that not enough people have heard about it yet. People might be skeptical in putting their Bank information into the website and other personal information, when they only wanted to donate money. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy to set up funding campaigns for small organizations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Finding out that my donataion togheter with hundreads of others is being frozen by political reasons.GoFundMe is trying to prevent an independent News platform (The Grayzone) from expanding their staff, and continue to provide independent journalism. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is a great resource for nonprofits who are new and do not know what other donation and campaign platforms are available to them. Otherwise, there is nothing else really to be said about it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The association between GoFundMe which is typically for individuals seeking funding for something, and nonprofits is not a positive association. The name GoFundMe Charity doesn't sound very good either. We never received one donation through them with all of our donors preferring to donate through PayPal. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing anymore... I have lost all confidence in this company that chooses to try and silence those they disagree with. I will no longer donate using this platform! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I am tired of donating and having gofundme confiscate and redistribute my donations from causes I donate to. Stop stealing from causes that don't fit your narrative or political view! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It was easy to get started at first. Sign up was smooth and the step by step process to create the campaign itself was good. Unfortunately that's not enough to make up for the bad parts though... Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Their payments policies are obscure, confusing, and arbitrary. They are holding our money, making random refunds, and not paying out funds on time. I will never use these guys again. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One of the best things about GoFundMe is simply its name recognition. People are very comfortable giving through GoFundMe because they know the website. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
