Fees
Your full cost, before you pay.
What the review shows
- What the recipient receives.
- Payment processing and any disclosed platform costs.
- The total charged to you.
- The amount counted toward the applicable contribution limit.
- For recurring giving, the frequency and next charge information.
Why can a $1 contribution cost more than $1?
Payment providers can charge a fixed amount as well as a percentage. A $1 contribution can therefore cost more than $1 to deliver. Covering those fees also requires accounting for processing on the full charge.
The contracted provider's actual rates and rounding rules determine the review. Rates will be published when a payment route is approved.
How do monthly charges work?
Monthly giving must be selected explicitly. Fees and the ongoing charge are disclosed before consent. Changes apply to future charges after confirmation.
What happens after a refund?
The recipient amount and provider fees may have different refund treatment. Some processing fees cannot be returned. The approved route's policy must be disclosed before giving; the final record shows the amount actually refunded.
Is a contribution tax deductible?
That depends on the receiving entity and funding purpose. Political contributions and many advocacy contributions are not charitable deductions. A nonprofit name alone does not make a payment tax deductible.
Giving remains unavailable until payment routes, rates, and required disclosures are approved.
