Online Fundraising

Why Fundraise Online?

Harness the power of online fundraising with GoFundraise!

Fundraising is traditionally a high cost and resource-intensive exercise and now, more then ever, charities and not-for-profit organisations need more effective ways to fundraise. With online fundraising, you can now benefit from a low cost and highly effective fundraising solution.

Empowering people to fundraise

GoFundraise makes it easy for supporters to fundraise on your behalf. Whether it's your own event, a third party event, or even a special occasion your supporters create themselves.

Online fundraising harnesses the power of peer-to-peer marketing, where your supporters use their own social networks to effectively fundraise by reaching a wider audience.

Here's how it works:

1. You create and maintain a charity page, which includes images, a profile, and even video content
2. Users create a dedicated fundraising page and select you as their chosen charity/cause (your profile is automatically displayed on their page)
3. They can then email everybody they know with a direct link to their fundraising page.
4. People can donate directly and securely using credit/debit cards (they can even leave a personal message of support!).
5. GoFundraise automatically issue donation receipts, provide full donation reports for reconciliation, and funds raised are paid into your account

How do I register my organisation?

Registering with GoFundraise is easy - you simply complete our Online Fundraising Service Agreement. To find out more, use our online enquiry form or call 1300 889 272

GoFundraise charges a small 6% service fee or (5.75% where an * is displayed at the end of the beneficiaries name) that is deducted from gross donations collected on behalf of the charity or not-for-profit organisation. After an introductory period, there is also a $25 plus GST monthly hosting & administration fee that allows GoFundraise to provide ongoing services.
