## Reviews

### "Saving Time and Money" — 5.0/5

> **DAVID** | *January 29, 2026* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Zeffy is constantly improving, updating and enhancing the tools and the support team actually listens to requests and implements new features all the time.&#10;There has never been an issue with the finance aspect and The Llama Sanctuary can count on receiving a payout, on the dot, every week.
> 
> **Cons**: At the moment, Zeffy lacks some of the refinements and tools that bespoke email platforms, event organisers and online stores can offer.  The email creation element is still a bit crude and clunky and site navigation can be counter-intuitive (to me at least).
> 
> Zeffy has been the major fundraising platform for The Llama Sanctuary since 2024 and it has made a huge difference to the administration.  Previously, we used Mailchimp for email campaigns, Events for event booking and guided tours and separate fundraising platforms.  All of that is now condensed into one entity making life so much easier and in the process, the amount of money saved in fees each year is enough to pay the feed bill for entire month\!&#10;&#10;Oh\!  Did I mention it is absolutely free to use?

### "Really enjoying have one system to do multiple things instead of multiple systems to keep synchronized." — 5.0/5

> **Nicole** | *May 22, 2026* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Zeffy was easy to get started with. We were able to export out of mailchimp and into zeffy very quickly. It has saved us money on our monthly newsletter, and it integrates with our donation collection and donor management instead of multiple systems\!
> 
> **Cons**: I do sometimes find it hard to figure out where a feature is, or how to properly use it. But we are a 100% volunteer based organization so if I were a professional I feel like I might have more knowledge or time to better understand some of the more advanced features and take advantage of them.
> 
> Overall our small all volunteer non profit has had no negative experiences with Zeffy, which is amazing. Every prior platform eventually had issues we had to work around, we also don't have complex needs. I can manage my donors, receive donations, create and schedule my newsletters and fundraising campaigns which can be correctly targeted, and now we're getting to sell event tickets as well\!

### "Incredible service for zero dollars" — 5.0/5

> **Tara** | *March 31, 2026* | Entertainment | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It's very simple to use, the interface is elegant, and the export options are excellent. With no fees it's also incredibly cost-effective at a time when every dollar counts. And we love that it's Canadian.
> 
> **Cons**: The automatic addition of a Zeffy donation is something it feels necessary to warn buyers about, but we haven't had any complaints. And the character cap on titles is a bit of a challenge for getting all the pertinent info in the bold type.
> 
> Zeffy is easy, effective, and excellent. It's a relief to be out from under the clunky and exorbitantly priced Eventbrite.

### "Incredible free fundraising tool for non-profits" — 5.0/5

> **Nicole** | *April 16, 2025* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The ease of setting up new fundraising events. It's extremely simple to use.
> 
> **Cons**: The new navigation mode takes some getting used to, I liked it better before when it was simpler (not as many screens)
> 
> Zeffy helped us streamline specifically our fundraising events with one link and one payment method. We use it for events that involve the broader community, not just our school families who can pay in a variety of ways.

### "A no-brainer for non-profits" — 5.0/5

> **Clayton** | *August 10, 2026* | Sports | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Zeffy is a no brainer for any non profit. The fee elimination has saved us and our donors tens of thousands of dollars. The customer service is phenomenal and quick to respond, the campaign creation is seamless and intuitive and customizable, and I never worry about if or when we'll receive our funds. You can use it as a CRM to email your customer base if you'd like, and you can track so many performance metrics.
> 
> **Cons**: Can't say there's anything I don't like. Maybe that it's another platform to manage? But it's the one you should start with.
> 
> See what I liked most about Zeffy. I came across this platform trying to figure out a solution for nonprofits to reduce fees to accept digital payments. I found Zeffy and could not be happier.
