We do not charge any platform fees. GiveWheel's fundraising services are provided free of charge to individuals, organisations, and non-profits alike.

To help support the operation of the platform and the continuation of these services being provided free to charities, donors are able to add an optional contribution on top of their donation. Whether adding a voluntary contribution or not, there is no difference to the service provided and we welcome all donors, irrespective of whether they choose to leave a contribution.

When a donation is made, a payment processing fee is charged by our payment provider, Stripe. This is a special discounted rate of 1.2% + 20p for European cards, and may vary for international cards. Donors can opt to donate via invoice and bank transfer rather than paying via card. Donations paid via invoice incur a 3.85% processing fee.

Charities can choose to receive donations via Stripe, or via our non-profit disbursement partner Charities Trust (charity no. 327489). Charities Trust are a charity and provide various disbursement, due diligence and Gift Aid reclamation services to more than 23,000 UK charities. For these services, they charge a 2.5% disbursement fee. If charities receive payments via Stripe, there are no further fees.
