Givebutter for Non profits We have used Givebutter now for a few of our fundraisers. It is a great, user friendly site for our customers and us as a non profit. If we needed help with something someone is always able to help. We can highly recommend Givebutter to anyone, looking for a fundraising platform.

I had applied for an account to raise… I had applied for an account to raise funds. They suspended my account without cause, as soon as the account was created. They said they don't feel safe having me raise funds, and it is for the safety of the community that I not have an account. I provided the documentation that was needed. Someone is telling lies, and not being truthful, and this is slander.

Trying to work with this Company but no… Trying to work with this Company but no live person to speak to. How can I run campaigns with bad customer service? What would donors do? I spent almost two hours on a chat waiting for responses and the nice agent said they have a small team and continued to apologize. Significant wait time between responses from agent. The he simply sent links they didn't answer the specifics. Again would have been a short phone chat. Obviously, this Company spent much of the funding on Marketing, SEO, and flashy website. Whet about good old fashioned reasonable customer service?

A Major Source of Spam Emails EDITED AND UPDATED: I continue to receive unsolicited email from a perfect stranger purporting to raise money for a sports team I have never heard of that is halfway across the country from me. The unsubscribe link in the emails does not work -- it produces a DNS error. I have emailed the company asking to be permanently removed from any emailings but have not received any response. I do not know where this company, or this perfect stranger seeking to raise funds for a team I have never heard of, acquired my email address. Anyone considering using this company should be aware that you run the risk of angering your potential donors with unwanted spam. Be further aware that their purported unsubscribe links do not work, and that their site does not have any link for a user to request that emails be stopped. It looks like a pretty irresponsible organization to me. UPDATE: Trustpilot has advised me that "givebutter.com has flagged your review because they don’t think it’s based on a genuine experience." Nonetheless, I have now provided to givebutter the information requested in their reply (namely, the addresses I used unsuccessfully to contact them and request removal). Givebutter has now responded, "Thank you for providing that additional information. Our engineering team is looking into the unsubscribe link to make sure it functions properly in the future. Miranda has also been informed that her email is not reaching the intended recipient. We appreciate your concern over this and for bringing it our attention." I remain concerned about the issues I raised, and the number of unanswered questions that are still there. What process (if any) does givebutter use to scrutinize lists of addresses submitted by fundraisers to avoid spam? Why does the unsubscribe link on the unsolicited email only generate an error message? Why is there no policy concerning spam posted on the givebutter web site? Why is there no link or contact address on the web site for users to request removal from givebutter mailings?

The staff is amazing The staff is amazing. Super helpful and the design team has created an amazing auction tool in a limited amount of time. They have thought through so many details and love that they are constantly working to improve their product. Can't wait to see the upgrades next year :)
