# Compatible Providers

DAFpay is designed to work with **all 1,400+ U.S.-based Donor Advised Fund (DAF) providers**. These providers are searchable within DAFpay, making it easy for donors to find and give from their DAF.

DAFpay supports providers in two ways, depending on the level of integration.

### Compatible Flow

Hundreds of DAFs are fully compatible with DAFpay, representing **+85% of the $326B DAF market**.

When a donor selects a compatible provider, they will authenticate with their DAF account and confirm the gift within the DAFpay modal.

{% endcolumn %}
{% endcolumns %}

The exact authentication method may vary by provider:

* Sign in directly within the DAFpay modal
* Be briefly redirected to their DAF provider’s site for verification
* Login to their account using a secure SMS link or QR code

In all cases, the experience is fast and the donation is **submitted in real time** — no follow-up or manual verification required.

***

### Manual Flow

Some DAF providers are not fully compatible and use a manual, intent-based flow. In this case, the donor enters their details and intended donation amount through DAFpay, then is directed to their DAF provider’s site to complete the gift.

Because the donation submission is not confirmed within DAFpay, we cannot confirm whether it was completed. However, you will receive a notification with the donor’s information to follow up if needed.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://help.givechariot.com/dafpay/compatible-providers.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
