Fees

People's Fundraising is an infrastructure charity created to help charities raise more money to support the causes that really matter. Whilst you can't run a fundraising website for free, you can do it without making a profit. This section compares and shows you what fees People's Fundraising and Just Giving.

The true cost of fundraising

Some well-known platforms are claiming to be 'free for charities' but still leave charities with no choice but to pay registration fees, card fees, Gift Aid fees, monthly fees and high bank fees - while donors are asked for 'tips' that go directly to the platform.

We believe fees should be transparent. There are no ongoing monthly charges, you only incur fees when you get donations. Here's how our fees stack up:

What are the fees	People's Fundraising Branded Service	[People's Fundraising] Charity Branded Managed Service	Just Giving
Registration fee	Free	Free	Free
Monthly fee	Free	Free	£15 + VAT to £39 + VAT
Platform fee	1.75%	2.75%	5% to 15%
Payment processing fee	1% + 8p	1% + 8p	1.9% + 20p
Gift Aid fee	Free	Free	Optional 5% fee
