Wonderful way to fundraiser! After participating in years of fundraisers as a parent of 4, this amazing Give Butter App was motivating, easy and fun to use this season. Best of all, more money was raised by donations and not selling items no one needs. Our team had competitions to raise the most money and have the most donors. We will definitely use it to fundraiser next season! Thank you for your wonderful fundraising platform!

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?

So far, so good! We’ve only been using them for a few months, but are finding it feature-rich and easy to use. The onboarding session was helpful and has given us some ideas for events and fundraising activities.

My Bad Experience With GiveButter! My review of GiveButter is completely based on my own personal opinions and is not meant to smear, slander, or make defamatory statements about GiveButter. All of the statements I’m making in regards to GiveButter are being alleged based on my personal experience. GiveButter allegedly deactivated my account and the allegedly stopped responding to my email in regards to refunding all of my donors. I allegedly received an email from an alleged GiveButter employee named Rachid informing me that refunds would be granted to my donors. Allegedly GiveButter has not issued all of the refunds to my donors. I think they should have solved this issue more professionally instead of allegedly ignoring emails, messages, and chats.

I was at a dance company's fundraiser… I was at a dance company's fundraiser and used their app to donate $100, plus a $3 fee for the app transaction. Then I get an extra $15 charged for Givebutter. Disgusting. $1 or $2, ok. But $15???
