Why use the Donate Button for individuals?

It’s completely free

The Donate Button helps organizers and supporters raise as much as they can for causes they’re passionate about. And best of all? It costs nothing but has a big impact.

It’s as simple as copying and pasting

Making sure the Donate Button appears on your website or blog doesn’t require any complicated engineering. Simply copy the embed code from your fundraiser page and paste it into the HTML of your website or blog.

It can increase donations

The magic of the Donate Button is that it’s an easy way to boost the number of views to your fundraiser. When an individual visits your website or blog and sees your fundraiser image, all they need to do is click the “Donate now” button. Then they’ll be taken to a payment page where they can make a donation of any amount to support your cause.

It allows you to support causes you care about

Each fundraiser on GoFundMe has a unique embed code that is available to anyone. Even if you didn’t launch your own GoFundMe, you can support or promote a fundraiser that’s important to you by embedding that fundraiser’s Donate Button on your blog or website.
