Frequently asked questions
Why should nonprofits choose Zeffy over ecommerce platforms like Ecwid and Wix?
Zeffy is built specifically for nonprofits, not businesses selling products. While Ecwid and Wix charge monthly fees plus transaction costs on every donation, Zeffy is completely free. You keep 100% of donations with no hidden fees.
Can Ecwid and Wix handle nonprofit fundraising like auctions and peer-to-peer campaigns?
No. Ecwid and Wix are ecommerce platforms designed for product sales, not fundraising. They lack auction tools, peer-to-peer campaigns, and donor management features that nonprofits need to run successful fundraising events.
How much do monthly fees add up with ecommerce platforms versus Zeffy?
Ecwid and Wix charge monthly subscription fees plus transaction costs on every donation. A nonprofit raising $10,000 annually could pay $500+ in fees. With Zeffy, that same organization pays $0 and keeps every dollar donated.
How do ecommerce platforms like Ecwid and Wix handle nonprofit-specific needs?
They don't. Ecwid and Wix are built for selling products, not fundraising. They lack auction tools, peer-to-peer campaigns, and donor management. You'd need costly third-party apps to add basic nonprofit features.
What's the real cost difference between Zeffy and ecommerce platforms for nonprofits?
Ecommerce platforms charge monthly fees plus transaction costs on every donation. A nonprofit raising $5,000 could pay $300+ annually in fees. Zeffy charges nothing - you keep 100% of what donors give.
