Top 8 Reasons why Charities and Nonprofits like to Fundraise with our Donation Marketplace?

An Online Donation Marketplace is an Online Fundraising Platform with the objective to help donors find charities that best fit their beliefs and their donation portfolio. Charities also greatly benefit from such platforms. Here are some of the advantages of a donation marketplace for charities and nonprofits using our Circle Acts Charitable Donation Marketplace.

1. Increase Earned Awareness for High-Impact Charities & Nonprofits

In Canada alone, there are more than 85,000 charities and 170,000 nonprofits registered with the government, and many more if you include private donation and movements to advance all varieties of causes. The Circle-Acts Online Donation Marketplace allows impact-focused charities to stand out amongst their peers, and helps them reach donors who believe in their causes.

2. Accurate Representations of High-Impact Charitable Causes

Circle-Acts Donation Marketplace allows charities to promote and raise awareness of their causes at the program level. Circle Acts also allows them to better understand the preference of their new donors and they can also take advantage of Circle-Acts’ cause-based products to reach their targeted donors.

3. No Fee and Significant reduction of Per-Dollar Fundraising Cost

All donations fundraised through Circle-Acts donation-marketplace is administrative cost-free (the only fee applied is recovery fee that is charged by the credit card and payment processor). Typically, a charity would allocate and budget 10-25% of every donation dollar to marketing to acquire new donations, this now means 10-25% less can go to the high-impact causes.

For example, if you, as a donor, donate $1000 to a charity through their typical channels and advertisement, by the time the TV or Social Media commercial reaches you, the charity has already spent roughly $100-$200 of your money to advertise and get your attentions. This is “administration costs” on the T3010. This is amplified when you look at 10 donors, that’s about $1000-$2000 dollar spent in administration.

With Circle Acts, an amazing donor finds out about the charity and donates $1000 with the donation marketplace. The $1000 (minus the processing fee) will be passed to the charity. As a charity, the $1000 donation is cost-free, and there is no $100-$200 costs associated with it, therefore the charity will have an extra one to two hundred dollars for impact.

Circle Acts Donation Marketplace is a win-win-win situation for the donor, the charity, and of course most importantly those who the cause helps.

4. Reduce Donor Anxiety and Stress to support New Causes and Charities

Many donors want to help and support causes they believe in, however there are too many charities and they may not be familiar with any particular one. Unless the donors are already donating to certain charities, they can be hesitant to enter into a new relationship with new nonprofits without a big push.

The Circle Acts Charity Donation Marketplace provides a great entry point for new donors to “try out” new charities without committing into a direct relationship. They can start giving $50 to a new charity of their choices without worrying about guilt down the road.

The Circle Acts Donation Marketplace allows donors to try out a few different charities that work on the same cause at the same time. They can do all of them in one place, without worrying of picking the wrong charity.

The Circle Acts Charitable Donation Marketplace attracts new donors by reducing uncertainties and obstacles for donors to go outside of their existing donation comfort zone.

5. Increase overall Charitable Sector Market size with overall more available fund to charitable causes

The more new donors introduced, the overall donation sector will grow and more funds will be made available for the high-impact charities overall. Charities and nonprofits will not need to compete head-to-head with each other for attention, and instead we can work together to support the common causes together.

The World’s first Donation Marketplace Circle Acts speeds up growth of the overall charitable sector and is a catalyst to a better world.

6. A great complimentary fundraising channels on top of current channels (for free)

Circle-Act Donation-Marketplace compliments all the existing fundraising channels of all impact-centric charities. It is a nice addition to a new segment of donors together with other targeting strategy and fundraising channels.
