Classy is a powerful enterprise fundraising platform for large organizations, and it usually comes with enterprise-tier pricing, contracts, and a donor tip prompt at checkout. If you are a small or mid-size nonprofit or church that wants flat monthly pricing and no donor tipping, CoreCause is the simpler switch. $19.99/mo Starter, interchange-plus processing, never a donor tip prompt.

Book a 20-minute switch call. We will walk through donor migration, your new donation page, and the tip-prompt-free, flat-monthly-pricing experience.

Six concrete differences your donors, your finance team, and your board will notice in the first 30 days after the switch.
Your donors never get prompted to add a tip on top of their gift to cover platform costs. Their full donation goes to programs and services. Many fundraising platforms, Classy included, surface a donor tip prompt at checkout that quietly redirects donor dollars away from your nonprofit.
You see what you actually pay: the interchange the card networks set, plus 0.50% + $0.15. No stacked platform fees. No hidden percentages. The math is the math.
When a recurring supporter's card expires or gets replaced, CoreCause refreshes it through the card networks automatically. Most platforms make you chase them to re-enter their card. We do not.
Donations clear to your account by the next business day. Many enterprise and platform-fee tools, Classy included, can take longer depending on your payout configuration. Faster access to funds means faster impact.
Email within one business hour. Real phone support. Real account managers. Not a chatbot that loops you back to a help article when something breaks during a campaign.
Month-to-month. No setup fees on the Starter plan. The Free plan is genuinely free and never expires. Explore the platform with zero financial commitment.
