How it works

Processing should protect the mission, not quietly drain it

Rate increases, confusing statements, platform fees, and blended pricing can divert money from the programs those payments are meant to fund.

1

Audit the real payment cost

Statements, deposits, platform fees, donation pages, recurring gifts, and events checked together.

2

Optimize the donation stack

Debit vs. credit costs, processor fit, reporting, mobile checkout, and recurring reliability compared.

3

Improve donor & admin experience

A clearer setup that supports donors, staff, cash flow, and mission-focused reporting.

Across every place supporters pay.

Statement clarity. Rate creep, blended pricing, and processor-fee visibility.

What you get

A donation-stack review

01

Donation channels

Online gifts, mobile checkout, events, dues, sponsorships, memberships, and recurring giving.

02

Cost layers

Processor fees, platform fees, monthly fees, debit/credit mix, and avoidable markups.

04

Back-office flow

Deposits, reconciliation, reporting, funding schedule, and staff time spent decoding payments.

Leak vs. clean stack

Every dollar of overhead is a program dollar.

An un-audited stack

  • Platform + processor fees stacked, unseen
  • Debit charged at credit rates
  • Staff hours lost reconciling deposits

A reviewed stack

  • Every fee layer named and compared
  • Debit optimized, recurring made reliable
  • Cleaner reporting and reconciliation
