What IsraelGives does

IsraelGives (ישראל תורמת) is a cloud-based SaaS fundraising and donor management platform founded in 2009, serving 5,000+ nonprofit organizations across 35 countries with 4,069,000+ active donors on the platform. The product is a unified suite combining a donor CRM, email and SMS marketing (delivered via Amazon SES), multi-currency payment processing (Israeli Shekel through its proprietary IsraelGives Payments service, plus Visa, Mastercard, PayPal, Bit, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and ACH), crowdfunding and peer-to-peer campaigns, and AI-powered donation forms with SmartSums optimization. It is operated by the Israeli entity ישראל תורמת בע"מ under the U.S. parent Giving Technologies, Inc., holds an exclusive Financial Services license (רישיון נש"פ) from Israel's Capital Market Authority, and is certified PCI DSS v4.0 Level 2.

The platform's revenue model is hybrid: a free Starter plan plus three paid monthly subscription tiers (Israel ₪99/mo, International ₪199/mo, Professional ₪250/mo, Expert ₪850/mo with a 12-month commitment) layered with per-transaction platform fees starting at 1.4% for online NIS donations on the International plan and reaching 6.9-10% on the Starter plan for international volume. 64% of donors historically opt to cover the platform fee at checkout, materially reducing effective nonprofit cost. Distribution is self-serve and product-led — nonprofits sign up directly at israelgives.org or israeltoremet.org with no credit card required and adopt modules incrementally. International fundraising is enabled through a network of partner charities in 35 jurisdictions that issue country-specific tax receipts (US 501(c)(3), UK Gift Aid, Canada CRA, France CERFA, Germany Spendenbescheinigung, Australia DGR).

Technically, the platform is differentiated by an Automatic Card Updater that has kept recurring donation streams running for 8+ years uninterrupted, bi-directional Salesforce sync (NPSP-compatible), a native Zapier app exposing 5,000+ integrations with up to 40 custom fields, a SOAP/XML data export API, and PCI DSS-compliant cardholder data handling. Customer logos span food rescue (Leket Israel), organ donation (Matanat Chaim/Gift of Life), nature conservation (SPNI), emergency rescue (Chaveirim), and Jewish/community charities, with no publicly disclosed revenue, funding rounds, or headcount above the 11-50 employee range.

Revenue model

1. Platform Transaction Fees (per-transaction): IsraelGives charges a percentage fee on donations processed through the platform. The fee varies by plan and currency: starting at 1.4% for online Israeli Shekel donations (International plan), up to 3.2% (Starter plan). For international donations, fees range from 2.5% (US online, International plan) to 6.9-10% (via international partners). Additionally, 64% of donors historically choose to cover the platform fee themselves, effectively reducing the cost to nonprofits to near zero on those transactions.
2. Monthly Subscription Plans: Three tiered monthly subscription plans: Starter (free), Israel (₪99/month), and International (₪199/month). Subscriptions determine the platform fee rate applied to donations. Higher-tier plans offer lower transaction fees. Some features have additional per-seat or per-use fees: MYSITE branded donation forms cost extra (₪49-99/month depending on plan), recurring donation support costs ₪99/month if receiving at least ₪200/month in recurring donations, and KYC setup costs ₪300 one-time.
3. International Partner Referral Fees: When processing international donations via IsraelGives' international partners (for countries beyond the standard 35), a one-time application fee of ₪1,000 applies. International donations processed through US/UK partners use the standard transaction fee structure.
4. Optional Tips (Donor-Initiated): Instead of charging platform fees to nonprofits, donors can voluntarily leave a tip to IsraelGives at checkout. Tips are processed as a separate transaction (or included in the donation amount for Bit/PayPal) and are classified as voluntary donations to IsraelGives.
