What is Donorbox?

Donorbox is an embeddable, localized donation form / plugin for websites, designed to encourage recurring donations with fast, multi-step checkout. Organizations can seamlessly embed a custom form to their website or use a popup widget. The form builder allows users to collect custom questions from donors, ask donors where to designate their donation, and dedicate their donation in honor of someone.

With Donorbox, organizations can accept monthly recurring donations. Pre-filled custom amounts with descriptions let donors feel great by knowing what they're contributing to. Donors also have full control over their monthly recurring donations. Forms are localized in Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Danish, and Swedish, and are optimized for desktop, mobile phones, and tablets.

Donorbox makes it possible to accept payments via credit cards, ACH bank transfers as well as PayPal and Stripe, and offers customizable receipt texts. The platform is compatible with all CMS systems including WordPress, Weebly, and Squarespace, and integrates with Salesforce, MailChimp, and more.

    Pros
    I fell in love with Donorbox because of their attention to detail to churches and nonprofits. And the very best thing.
    We have been using Donorbox as the donation page for our website since we launched the site. We love the software so much its been such a huge help to us.
    I can’t imagine how we would have raised the funds we have and had the opportunities that have been created for us without DonorBox. It’s without doubt the best donation software for charities.
    Cons
    I struggled a bit to set up my payment method.
    The boundaries between Donorbox and Stripe weren't clearly defined to me. The fee structure (Stripe and Donorbox) was not very clear in the end - what the rates were and who charged what.
    If you are not technologically proficient it can be a little intimidating.
