Nonprofit Consultants: Earn for Every Client You Send to CoreCause.

If you recommend tools to nonprofit clients, those recommendations can become ongoing revenue. Refer once and earn every month the client processes donations.

What they get

What the organizations you refer actually use.

Campaigns, giving totals and donor records in one place, with next business day payouts.

You are recommending something you can see, not a logo on a slide.

How the Consultant Partner Program Works

Designed around how nonprofit consultants actually engage with clients. Not a generic affiliate scheme, not a quota-driven sales role.

1. Sign up & onboard

Short signup via the Talk to Sales form. We confirm your consulting focus (fundraising strategy, ops, capacity building, faith), set up your introduction email to sales@corecommerce.com, and walk through the program in a 30-minute call. Most consultants are set up within 1 business day.

2. Refer a client org

When you recommend a fundraising platform in an engagement, point the client to CoreCause through your introduction to sales@corecommerce.com. Every signup is attributed to you for the lifetime of the account.

3. Earn ongoing revenue

You earn a monthly share for every client account that stays on CoreCause. Not a one-time bounty. As your consulting practice grows, the residual book compounds underneath it.

Disclosure-friendly

The program is built to be disclosed openly to your client. Same model your peers use with CRM vendors, grant-management software, and bookkeeping tools. Transparent referral, no awkward backroom arrangement.

Flexible delivery arrangements

If you want to deliver CoreCause as part of your service (build the donation page, set up recurring, train staff), mention it in your intro email. We tailor the partner arrangement to fit your delivery model.

We do the implementation

You stay in your strategic-advisor role. Our team handles the platform demo, application, underwriting, and onboarding for the nonprofit you refer. You collect ongoing without becoming a software trainer.

Direct partner reporting

Monthly residual statements come direct from our partner team via email. Real humans on the partner side. Ask us about pending referrals any time and you will get a real answer.

No quotas, no exclusivity

Refer two clients a year or twenty. No monthly minimums to maintain status. No requirement to recommend only CoreCause. Your professional independence stays your own.

Direct partner support

You get a real human on the partner team. When a referred client has a question or hits a wrinkle, you have a direct line into CoreCommerce, not a support ticket gauntlet.

Donor-Covered Fees

Donors cover the fees. The nonprofits you refer keep the whole gift.

A simple option at checkout that most donors are glad to say yes to. CoreCause never prompts donors to tip the platform.

Common Questions

Frequently asked questions

A referral program for nonprofit consultants. Refer client orgs and earn ongoing revenue for as long as each stays a customer.
Fundraising consultants, grant writers, coaches, board advisors, campaign counsel, and ministry consultants, anyone who recommends tools to nonprofit clients.
Not when handled transparently. Just disclose that you earn ongoing revenue if they sign up; most consulting agreements already allow referral arrangements with disclosure.
Monthly ongoing revenue on every client org you refer that becomes a paid customer. The exact share is confirmed at onboarding and matched to how you plan to refer.
The standard program is a referral partnership, not a reseller license: your client signs up under their own branding and you earn a monthly residual. For delivery engagements, email sales@corecommerce.com.
Those are often the easiest referrals. Clients already on Givebutter, Donorbox, Tithe.ly, or Classy know what they pay, so pointing at the line item and recommending the switch closes fast.

Why Consultants Recommend CoreCause

The six things consultants tell us they care about most when picking which fundraising platform to put on the table for a client.

No donor tipping. Ever.The nonprofits you refer never see their donors prompted to add a percentage on top of their gift to cover platform costs. The full donation goes to programs and services. Givebutter's tip prompt and Donorbox's platform fees both quietly redirect donor dollars away from the mission.
Donors can cover the fees.At checkout, donors can choose to cover the processing fee on their gift. When they do, 100% of what they give reaches the nonprofit. CoreCause never prompts donors to tip the platform.
Automatic Card Updater.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.
Next-business-day payouts.Donations clear to your account by the next business day. Many donation platforms take several days to deposit, and some payout services take even longer.
Real human support.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.
No contracts. Cancel anytime.Month-to-month with no long-term contract. Cancel anytime and keep your campaigns and donor data.
