Video: Five (more) digital fundraising platforms your charity should know about

Fundraising platforms have become increasingly important for charities. They help provide an easy and efficient method for payment, allow charities to raise funds without too much fuss, and broadly streamline processes.

Lots of new fundraising platforms offer functionalities that are often missed. We want to emphasise some of the alternatives to the big players and look at platforms that use QR codes and contactless tech, small-scale functionality to ensure cost-efficiency, and much more.

Each fundraising platform is different. Some offer Gift Aid options, other do not. Some have processing fees, service fees, and other hidden costs. Some charge more, but justify the charge through innovative optimisation options. Some reduce everything to simplicity – and do not expect you to pay more through that simplicity.

Today’s video aims to help you decide. It looks at five fundraising platforms currently on the market, explores the functionalities and prices, and explains why such platforms may be right for your charity. In the video, we look at the following five platforms:

• Bopp
• KindLink
• StockCrowd
• Givey
• Wonderful

The video aims to give an overview of each platform, but we encourage charities to research further, judge each platform against your needs, and cast a broader net to see if other platforms are more suitable. There are so many options, as we discuss in our article on fundraising platforms.
