DAFpay FAQs

🌐 Can we integrate Chariot’s DAFpay solution directly on our website, without using a fundraising platform?

Yes. You can use Chariot’s DAFpay solution independently of fundraising platforms through our direct subscription plans. See DAFpay Components

💰 How much does it cost to use DAFpay?

There are two ways nonprofits can access DAFpay, each with a different pricing structure:

1. Through an Integration Partner (See Fundraising Platforms)

  • If you use DAFpay via one of Chariot’s integration partners (e.g., a fundraising or donation platform), each DAFpay gift typically includes a 2.9% initiation fee. Additional fees may apply if your fundraising platform charges fees on top of DAFpay's processing. Please check with your platform provider for details on any added costs.

  • This fee can be covered by the donor or the nonprofit, depending on the platform’s configuration and your organization’s settings.

2. Through a Direct Subscription with Chariot

  • You can also access DAFpay directly by subscribing to Chariot. To view available plans and choose the best fit for your organization, simply claim your Chariot Deposit Account and access pricing details within your Chariot dashboard.

🧾 If I don’t have a subscription with Chariot, why am I being billed?

Even if your organization doesn’t hold a direct subscription, you may still have an active Chariot account through a fundraising platform integration. These fundraising platforms activate DAFpay automatically for eligible nonprofits, and each gift typically incurs a 2.9% fee, similar to standard payment processing fees.

To review your account activity or donation history, log in with the email associated with your Chariot account. Need help identifying the account owner or resolving a billing question? Email us at [email protected].

Additional fees may apply if your fundraising platform charges fees on top of DAFpay's processing. Please check with your platform provider for details on any added costs.
