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?

Don't hesitate to give Givebutter a try! When we were looking for a new peer-to-peer fundraising database, we were excited to find Givebutter! Givebutter has been an excellent company to work with. I have been so impressed by their quick response rate, helpful customer service, and communication along the way. If you are looking for a database to use, don't delay!

Our answer is really closer to 4.5 Our answer is really closer to 4.5. The experience with Givebutter was great. The only downside was that individuals were unable to see who donated on their behalf. We had to send updates to everyone, which was not the best use of our time.

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.

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.
