How SupportNow compares to GiveSendGo
The fee rates are close. The bigger differences are what your supporters are asked for at checkout, what else appears on your page, and everything a family needs beyond donations.
- 1. When supporters round up, the beneficiary receives 100% of donations. This is unique to SupportNow. If supporters do not round up, we are proud to offer the industry's lowest 2.7% credit card processing cost, and SupportNow never adds platform fees.
- 2. GiveSendGo pricing per givesendgo.com/pricing-and-fees and their help center fee guide, as of July 2026. Non-USD fundraisers carry 3.5% + $0.30, plus 1% on cross-currency donations.
- 3. Per the GiveSendGo help center article on the suggested tip, as of July 2026. Tips are adjustable, including to zero.
- 4. Based on GiveSendGo help center descriptions of the Support GiveSendGo fundraiser linked on campaign pages, the Giver Army monthly program, and fundraisers cross-promoted on live campaign pages. As of July 2026.

Frequently asked questions
How much does GiveSendGo take from a donation?
GiveSendGo charges no platform fee, but 2.7% + $0.30 in processing is deducted from each US donation. Their own example shows $97 of a $100 donation reaching the fundraiser, and donors see an automatic tip suggestion that goes to GiveSendGo.
On SupportNow, donors can cover processing with an optional RoundUp, so your family can receive 100% of donations.
Can our church or community organize meals and help, not just money?
Yes. A Support Registry includes meal trains, volunteer signups, and to-dos alongside fundraising, so a congregation or community can cook, drive, and show up, not just give.
Everything lives at one link, and supporters never need an account to help.
Can we run GiveSendGo and SupportNow at the same time?
Yes. Many families keep an existing campaign running and add a Support Registry for meals, volunteers, and updates.
Pointing new supporters to SupportNow means more of each gift reaches your family.
