Benvy is a two-sided marketplace connecting donors to vetted nonprofit organizations. Four purpose-built products β one platform β powering the full charitable giving lifecycle.
End-to-end donor discovery and giving. ACH nets ~3.2%; card nets ~1.1% after pass-through.
Galas, 5Ks, auctions. Avg gift $250β$1,000+. Events raise $50Kβ$500K. QR-native.
$145B religious giving (27% of US total). Fund-based giving: Tithe, Offering, Building, General.
LYBUNT/SYBUNT analytics, QuickBooks sync, automated outreach. No monthly software fee.
You pay when donors give. We grow when you grow.
Benvy charges 4% on every donation processed. Unlike subscription SaaS, this requires no upfront commitment β and scales automatically with platform usage. The more donors give, the more revenue Benvy earns.
Fee mechanics: ACH at 0.8% (capped $5) passed to donor β Benvy nets ~3.2%. Card at 2.9%+$0.30 passed to donor β Benvy nets ~1.1%. ACH is default.
Competitive positioning: Network for Good 3β5%; Classy 2β4% plus per-transaction fees; PayPal Giving Fund 0% but no CRM or social layer. Benvy's 4% bundles discovery, communications, and tax automation.
Multi-source vetting: IRS EIN lookup, ProPublica 990 filings, composite trust score. Vetted before listing β nonprofits with transparency certifications raise 53% more.
Full lifecycle automation: Instant IRS receipts, year-end tax summary PDFs, automated impact report distribution β all included in the 4% fee.
DAF integration (Phase 2): Same 4% applies to DAF-originated gifts. All recipients are verified 501(c)(3)s β required for Fidelity, Schwab, and Vanguard to release funds.
A single mid-size gala raises $50Kβ$500K in one evening. Average event gift: $250β$1,000+ vs. $75 online. Benvy's 1% replaces OneCause, Auction Mobility, and Givebutter β all charging 3β5% plus requiring separate vendor accounts.
Branded QR codes: Instant, print-ready QR linking to the event giving page β optimized for mobile checkout in under 60 seconds. No app download required.
Live giving feed: Real-time leaderboard and totals displayed at events β drives social momentum and urgency in the room.
Peer-to-peer campaigns: Individual fundraising pages where attendees solicit from personal networks. Benvy's social graph amplifies reach automatically.
Pledge tracking: Capture pledges at events, auto-convert to ACH or card charges post-event on a scheduled basis.
Revenue leverage: New donors acquired at events flow into the brokerage and CRM revenue streams β events are the acquisition channel.
Religious organizations receive ~$145B annually β 27% of all US charitable giving. Most faith communities rely on legacy kiosks, paper envelopes, or first-generation apps with no network features. Benvy is the upgrade.
Competitive displacement: Tithe.ly charges 2.9%+$0.30 plus $12β$49/mo. Pushpay requires $500+/mo β unaffordable under 500 members. Benvy charges 2%, no fixed monthly fee.
Fund-based giving: Tithe, Offering, Building Fund, and General β fully configurable. In-service QR giving: members scan and give in under 60 seconds.
Pledge campaigns: Annual pledge drives with automated tracking and reminder communications throughout the year.
Multi-campus support: Centralized platform for organizations with multiple locations or ministry chapters.
Go-to-market leverage: Faith community leaders are highly networked. A single pastor referral unlocks an entire congregation as a captive donor base.
The nonprofit CRM market is fragmented and expensive. Small-to-mid nonprofits spend $3Kβ$15K/yr on tools that are overbuilt and require dedicated admin time. Benvy consolidates this into one platform with native giving data β no manual import/export cycles.
Competitive displacement: Bloomerang: $299β$599/mo flat. Salesforce NPSP: $500+/mo plus implementation. Benvy at 2% of $500K volume = $10,000/yr β comparable cost, native giving integration included.
Retention analytics: Donor retention rate, LYBUNT/SYBUNT analysis, average gift size, campaign performance β all from live giving data, no imports needed.
Automated donor communications: Thank-you emails, gift receipts, pledge reminders, and year-end IRS acknowledgment letters β generated automatically from Benvy giving data.
Segmentation & outreach: Build donor segments by giving history, geography, or network affiliation. Send targeted campaigns directly from Benvy.
QuickBooks Online sync: Automated gift reconciliation. Social layer enriches CRM data with network connections β a feature no standalone CRM can replicate.
Nonprofits with independent transparency certifications receive 53% more in contributions. Every organization on Benvy passes a multi-source vetting process before going live.
501(c)(3) status confirmed via direct IRS lookup. Revoked EINs are rejected automatically.
Annual 990 filings reviewed for revenue trends, compensation ratios, and program efficiency.
Composite score: years in operation, team size, mission clarity, and impact reporting history.
Every organization is manually reviewed by Benvy staff before going live. No self-serve activation.
"I've had a Fidelity Charitable account for three years and never deployed the funds. I didn't trust what I couldn't verify. Benvy's trust score changed that in 20 minutes."
"We put QR codes on every table at our annual fundraiser. 93 gifts by end of night, every one with an automatic receipt. We used to spend two weeks chasing down payment details."
"Our congregation scans during service. Tithe, building fund, offering β each tracked separately. Year-end statements go out automatically. Our treasurer's job got 80% simpler."
Donation Brokerage (4% fee): donor discovery and giving for nonprofits. Event Fundraising (1% fee): QR-powered payments at any live fundraising event. Faith & Community (2% fee): fund-based digital giving for churches and community orgs. Nonprofit CRM (2% fee): donor retention analytics and automated communications. All four run on one platform.
Organizations pay only when donations are received β never upfront. Donors are never charged. Fees range from 1% for event fundraising to 4% for donation brokerage, compared to 30β50% for traditional event fundraising or 10β15% for a hired fundraiser.
Create a named event in your dashboard. Benvy generates a print-ready QR code and short URL in seconds. Donors scan, select an amount, give by card or ACH β no app download required. IRS-compliant receipts are emailed within 30 seconds of each gift, automatically.
Yes β Faith & Community is a dedicated Benvy product. It supports fund-based giving (Tithe, Offering, Building Fund, General), in-service QR giving, recurring gifts on any frequency, and automated annual tax summaries for every member.
