What do you like best about Pledge?

Pledge was surprisingly easy to use and it made creating a professional-looking fundraising website so easy. I quite literally put together my page in 15 minutes on my iPhone. The platform also made it super easy to update, post to social media, and see the back and front end of donations.

I was also quickly reached out to by the amazing Pledge team who helped me with any questions and even met with me to help reach an even broader audience. They were so supportive to my entire fundraising campaign and made this experience very positive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pledge?

The specific chapter of the national organization I was raising money for was not on the Pledge database so it made it slightly trickier to coordinate the donation but the Pledge team and Nicole made sure to help me through every step and ensure the money got where it needed to go. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Pledge solving and how is that benefiting you?

Pledge is bringing professional-level fundraising to normal people like me. When I first thought about creating a fundraising campaign I had no idea what it would take or where to start but when I found Pledge it all became so simple and step by step. It's benefiting me in that I now know I have the tools (Pledge!) to create my own or support other organizations in creating successful fundraisers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It would be great if Pledge could eliminate ALL fees on any size donation. If they found a way to do this, I would use Pledge exclusively. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Pledge is simplifying fundraising.

The branding is great and I appreciate the multiple ways for people to give. It makes things easier for me as a business owner. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Pledge?

Their support staff is responsive and does their best to customize to our needs. from their staff has been amazing and their platform setup makes it incredibly easy for our donors to contribute to our organization along with our SEED20 nonprofits during our annual pitch competition program. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pledge?

It would be great if people could choose the charities they want to give to on our fundraiser page rather than only picking one or all per transaction. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Pledge solving and how is that benefiting you?

By only charging fees for donations of $1,000 or more, Pledge ensures that more funds go to our designated charities. The platform is also easy for our SEED20 supporters to donate directly to our designated charities from a signal website. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Pledge?

I love how simple it is to create and launch a fundraiser on Pledge. Awesome user experience for both our organization and our donors! I have literally created fundraisers in under 5 minutes : )

I also love how they are always thinking of ways to expand their offering and improve the user experience. They recently added Crypto donations for example, but they did it in the easiest way possible. Practically zero effort to implement on the organization-side. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pledge?

There isn't much that I don't love about Pledge, but if I had to pick something I might say that it would be nice to have a few more backend analytics to measure different aspects of our fundraisers. Other than that, no complaints whatsoever! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Pledge solving and how is that benefiting you?

Pledge makes it incredibly simple for busy organizations to get up and running with fundraising without heavy lifting (in terms of effort or technology). Pledge is easy, it's fast, and it just works! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

(Original )Information
What do you like best about Pledge?

As a consultant serving the nonprofit space, I've seen a lot of online giving options available today. Pledge has stood out to me because they continue to innovate and add new features. During the pandemic, Pledge launching the Zoom giving button was a game changer for thousands of nonprofits using Zoom to host live giving events. More recently, The crypto giving functionality is seamless and one of the only free options available to nonprofits. It's all super simple to get it up and running. At the end of the day, the people I've met who are powering Pledge - from their founder to the team marketing and creating the product are all incredible humans too. I believe they are using tech to make a better world through this platform, which is why I recommend it to organizations all the time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pledge?

While the forms look great out of the box, I would still love to see even more customization for branding and upgrading the look-and-feel of the giving forms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Pledge solving and how is that benefiting you?

Pledge is innovating in a sector that is traditionally slow to adopt change. I appreciate how they engage, listen and optimize their platform around the nonprofits using their product. So from what I've seen, it continues to get better and better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
