How does Givebutter + POINT integration work?

Our integration allows you to link a donate button hosted from your Givebutter account on your organization's POINT profile. This allows you to convert your volunteers into donors while streamlining all of your fundraising efforts and data within your Givebutter account. Here's a step-by-step video of how to set the integration up. 

About Givebutter

Givebutter is the most-loved nonprofit fundraising platform, empowering millions of changemakers to raise more, pay less, and give better.

Nonprofits use Givebutter to streamline their fundraising efforts by replacing multiple tools with a single platform—including donation forms, fundraising campaigns, events, auctions, donor management, email, texting, and more. What sets Givebutter apart is its transparent tip-or-fee model, allowing nonprofits to access all of these tools for free thanks to optional donor tips.

With Givebutter, you can easily add a donation widget to your website and POINT profile to start collecting contributions right away. Givebutter's online donation forms are designed with donors in mind, complete with custom branding options and the ability to suggest meaningful donation amounts. Donors can give securely using popular payment methods, including credit/debit cards, Venmo, PayPal, Apple Pay, donor-advised funds, and more. Recurring giving can also be set up to help your nonprofit secure predictable revenue with monthly, quarterly, and yearly donations.
