Charges and Fees

Understanding GiveMN's Processing Fee & Service Charge

At GiveMN we believe in being transparent about the cost of fundraising. And it’s important to us that you know exactly why we have fees, what they mean for you and how they’re used to support our reason for being: supporting Minnesota’s nonprofit community.

To ensure we can provide organizations and donors a world-class giving platform and game-changing resources at no or low cost, we charge:

    • an annual service charge for our platform
    • a processing fee of 6.9% of the total donation and a $.30/transaction fee on every donation made using GiveMN.org

Together with philanthropic support from our funders, these fees help provide the revenue needed to power the programs Minnesota nonprofits and donors depend on. 

Fees help us maintain our fundraising platform and process credit card donations, provide no-cost resources and training opportunities, and award more than $200,000 in grants each year.
