What are the fees for donors?

We don't charge donors fees. Donors can optionally leave a tip to cover the costs of operating the service, but this is completely optional. 

We provide a number of payment methods for donors including Credit/Debit Card, PayPal, Google Pay and Apple Pay, all of which result in a charge to iDonate. Therefore our transaction charge to causes on donations is 1.95% + 25c.

Our No.1 aim is to Make Giving Easier, so we keep our transaction cost as low as possible. With a 1% lower transaction charge than other leading fundraising platforms, iDonate continue to support Irish causes to raise more.
