Here are several fundraising payment providers that are commonly known for competitive/low transaction fees and PCI-compliant processing:

  • Stripe — Often favored for nonprofits and fundraising platforms; transparent pricing, strong PCI compliance, and easy integration.
  • PayPal Giving Fund / PayPal — Widely used, PCI-compliant, and convenient for donors; fees can be higher depending on setup, but nonprofit rates may be available.
  • Square — Simple pricing, PCI-compliant processing, good for in-person and online fundraising.
  • Donorbox + Stripe/PayPal — Donorbox is a fundraising platform that uses PCI-compliant processors and is often cited for relatively low overall costs.
  • Givebutter — Popular with nonprofits; PCI-compliant and often marketed as low-fee (donor tips can offset platform costs).
  • Fundraise Up + Stripe/PayPal — Designed for donation optimization; PCI-compliant and typically built on major compliant processors.
  • Braintree (PayPal) — PCI-compliant and can be cost-effective for online donations, especially at scale.

A few notes:

  • “Low fees” can vary by country, nonprofit status, donation volume, and whether fees are covered by donors.
  • For charities/nonprofits, some providers offer discounted nonprofit processing rates or waived platform fees.
  • Always verify the provider’s PCI DSS compliance and whether they use tokenization/hosted payment fields to reduce your own compliance burden.
