3 reasons to choose Donoor
Funds paid directly to your bank account
On Leetchi, Le Pot Commun and HelloAsso, the platform holds your money and then passes it on to you. On Donoor, donations go directly into the organisation's account via Stripe Connect or PayPal, so you wait for no withdrawal at all.
Unlimited fundraiser QR codes
Print and stick your QR codes everywhere: flyers, donation boxes, mosque screens, shop windows. Each QR code tracks its source channel. No other provider on this list does it for free.
Specialised in religious bodies and 1905 organisations
Automatic Cerfa 11580, compliance with the 1905 law (religious bodies), free assistance with tax receipts, physical donation boxes. We speak your language — Leetchi is a generalist service built for “birthday gifts”.
A mosque during Ramadan
Fundraising of €18,000 over 30 days with physical donation boxes in the mosque, QR codes displayed at the 3 entrances and a central donation page. On Donoor, you equip all these channels for free, and funds arrive continuously in your organisation's account — not at the end, but continuously.
Why choose Donoor (and when to prefer another)
For an organisation that wants to maximise its donations
Donoor is unbeatable: 100% free, 0 commission, funds paid directly to your account and automatic tax receipts. Out of €1,000 raised, the organisation receives ~€985.
For a personal fundraiser
Pot Commun can be free in gift card mode (partner retailers). Otherwise, Donoor remains the best choice: no inactivity fees and no hidden commission.
When to prefer HelloAsso
If brand recognition matters to your donors. In exchange, ~10% of donations go to HelloAsso as a tip.
When to prefer Leetchi or KissKissBankBank
Leetchi for small fundraisers between friends (under €100, free). KissKissBankBank for a creative project on an “all or nothing” basis. Beyond that, 6 to 8% commission: too expensive for an organisation.
Frequently asked questions
What is really the cheapest online fundraising platform for an organisation?
Donoor takes 0% commission from the organisation. Like HelloAsso, Donoor offers the donor a tip at the time of payment to fund the platform: it is pre-filled but always editable and can be reduced to €0. The real difference from HelloAsso lies elsewhere: with Donoor, the funds go directly into the organisation's bank account via Stripe Connect or PayPal (non-custodial model), with no treasury held back and no payout delay. The only fees are those of the payment provider, Stripe or PayPal (~1.5% + €0.25 per transaction), covered by around 80% of donors thanks to a dedicated button. Leetchi (6%), KissKissBankBank (8%) and Le Pot Commun (2.9-4%), by contrast, charge a genuine commission to the organisation.
What is Donoor's “non-custodial” model?
Non-custodial means that Donoor NEVER holds custody of your money. The funds raised go directly into your organisation's bank account via Stripe Connect or PayPal. This is a major security guarantee: if Donoor disappeared tomorrow, your funds would remain safe with your payment provider, in your account. Other platforms (HelloAsso, Leetchi, KissKissBankBank, Le Pot Commun) hold the money collected and then pass it on to you, which means you depend on them.
How do Donoor and HelloAsso fund themselves without charging the organisation a commission?
Neither Donoor nor HelloAsso charges the organisation a commission: in both cases, a tip is offered to the donor at the time of payment to fund the platform. This tip is always editable and can be reduced to €0. The real difference lies elsewhere: with Donoor, the funds go directly into your organisation's bank account via Stripe Connect or PayPal (non-custodial model), without the platform ever holding your treasury or imposing a payout delay.
My organisation is eligible for tax receipts. Which platform should I choose?
Donoor, HelloAsso and KissKissBankBank automatically generate Cerfa 11580 tax receipts compliant with article 200 of the CGI, sent to the donor as soon as payment is made. Leetchi and Le Pot Commun do not. If you are a charity acting in the general interest, a religious organisation (under the 1905 law) or a recognised public-interest body, you can activate this feature free of charge on Donoor in 5 minutes (sworn statement + mandate).
Is there a risk of hidden fees on Donoor?
No. Donoor is 100% free: no subscription, no commission, no withdrawal fees, no inactivity fees. The only fees are those of the payment provider, Stripe or PayPal (market standards, identical across all platforms). It is completely transparent: the donor sees the net amount that will go to the organisation and can choose to cover the bank fees with a single click.
How long does it take to start a fundraiser on Donoor?
5 minutes: create an account, set up your fundraiser, then share the link or QR code. Setting up the Stripe Connect or PayPal account (which receives the funds) takes about 10-15 minutes (organisation supporting documents). Once Stripe is verified, payouts are automatic.
