What a $50 donation looks like

Two fees come out of each online donation: the ScanRaise platform fee and Stripe's card processing fee. This example uses Stripe's standard card rate; your account's rate may differ.

Donation
$50.00
ScanRaise platform fee (2.5%)
- $1.25
Stripe processing (2.9% + $0.30)
- $1.75
Your organization receives
$47.00

Donors can cover the fees. The donation page has a cover-the-fees box. When it is checked, the donor pays a little more and your organization receives the full $50.

Pricing questions

Are there setup, monthly, or contract fees?
Not for standard fundraising. You pay the 2.5% platform fee only when a donation goes through, plus Stripe processing. Political campaigns can choose a paid plan, listed below.
When do we get the money?
Donations go to your organization's own Stripe account. Stripe verifies new accounts first. The first payout usually arrives 7 to 14 days after the first successful live payment and may take longer. After that, Stripe pays out on your account's regular schedule.
What happens to the fees when a donation is refunded?
Dashboard refunds are not on for every account yet. When they are, the donor gets the full charge back and ScanRaise returns its 2.5% fee. Stripe keeps its processing fee, so your organization absorbs that cost.
Which payment methods can donors use?
Cards. Apple Pay or Google Pay appear when the donor's device, browser, and country and your Stripe settings support them. Donors do not need an account or an app.
Is there district or league pricing?
If your district, league, or group of organizations expects to process more than $250,000 a year through ScanRaise, contact us. Otherwise the fee is 2.5%.
