Fonzip

What Fonzip does

Fonzip Yazılım A.Ş. is a privately held Turkish SaaS company founded in 2016 in Istanbul that provides an integrated membership, fundraising, and nonprofit CRM platform exclusively for non-governmental organizations, associations, foundations, and federations. The product combines two product suites — Fundraising (Donation Pages, Donation Forms, Fundraising Campaigns, Events & Ticketing, E-Cards, Face-to-Face & Telemarketing) and Nonprofit CRM (Contact Management, Membership Dues, Recurring Payments, Forms, Email & SMS, End User Platform, Digital Membership Cards, Automation Bots) — delivered as a multi-tenant cloud platform supporting 9 languages, multi-currency, and PCI-DSS / KVKK compliance. The underlying architecture exposes a v2 API with web triggers and embeddable donation form callbacks, and is supported by a localized Turkish infrastructure stack including Radore hosting (TR), Digital Ocean (EU), AWS SES, Inbox, Netgsm, and GatewayAPI.

The company's revenue model is a two-tier subscription (Standard at $29/month or 499 TL/month, Pro at $49/month or 799 TL/month) supplemented by a 1.5% transaction fee on successful online payments, 0.05 TL per email sent, and SMS usage fees. Go-to-market is product-led and self-serve: organizations sign up directly on the website with a 1-month free trial and no sales intervention, and additional distribution flows through the Techsoup Turkey partnership (50% discount for low-income NGOs), iyzico payment-gateway co-marketing, and integrations with independent Turkish fundraising platforms (Adım Adım, İyilik Paylaş, Açık Açık). The customer base includes tier-1 Turkish NGOs such as Türk Kızılay, Ahbap, AKUT, UNICEF Türkiye, WWF Türkiye, TEGV, TED, TEMA, KAÇUV, and Tohum Autism Foundation, with the company claiming presence in 25+ countries. Fonzip is bootstrapped (no disclosed funding rounds), operates with 1-10 employees, and is led by co-founders Erdi Yerebasmaz and Emre Danacı.
